I wasn't prepared for how well crafted and philosophical this was! The writing was very powerful and engaging. It reminded of Silent Hill in that you hit on concepts that virtually everyone relates to but few dare to really grapple with. The ideas, audio and the striking visuals led to a product with an extremely strong tone. You even did well creating puzzles that were fair without being too easy. Congrats on creating a superb game and thanks for going out of your way to credit everyone involved. I'm very happy to have been involved in such a great game! :)
Thank you, brother, for the kind words and support. I’m really happy that you enjoyed it and that you were able to connect with the theme of the game. Giving credit to all the artists from whom I took the sounds and fonts is the least I can do to acknowledge their work and contribution to the community. Without your sounds, my game would lose 90% of its value. So, thank you, and have a great day! :)
Here’s a hint: on television, words like "Kilo, Bravo..." are said, and on every key of the phone, there are letters. The phone number consists of 8 digits, just like the words spoken on TV.
The words spoken on TV are in the NATO/ICAO phonetic alphabet. Each word is associated with a letter of the alphabet. For example: Alpha = A, Bravo = B... If you match these letters to the keys on a phone, you can find the number. For instance, if you hear the word "Papa," you should look for the letter P, which is on key 7. If there's anything else you're unclear about, don't hesitate to ask. Have a great day brother.
If you can't hear the words on the TV clearly, I'll write them here for you: Mike, Papa, Echo, Bravo, Kilo, India, Zulu, Tango. Use the initial of these words to find the number. Tango = T, you can find it on the phone key 8.
It was meant that way. I wanted to convey the feeling of being unable to achieve one's dream, despite too many years having passed since the time we had set for ourselves. A mother unable to give birth to her child seemed to me a disturbing image that could symbolically connect to that feeling. Thank you for playing :)

Is that a Dark Seed reference?
Hi brother. No, the title refers to the game's theme. Have a good day.
Update notification: Subtitles have been added to make the game more accessible for players with audio issues.
my broke headphones are too crusty to hear anything so now I cant even get past the phone part, crying
By the end of today, an update with subtitles will be released.
Yessssss, great move there
What is the number for the phone?

I hope I’ve been helpful.
What do the words mean then because I don't understand flip phone that well anymore

Im stuck on the part after you hear the part about the train

"Pregnant woman for 20 years" implies that she was pregnant for 20 years, not that she is a 20-year-old pregnant woman.
