Game (is dead)

Probably no updates:

The game was deindexed for seemingly no reason, and was like that nearly 10 days without any information from itch, and no answer from support.

This is the first game in this genre I created. More than 2000 people played each day for this small demo. But it seems that I wasted 3 weeks of my life for nothing. I hope some day to receive a message with an explanation of what happened. But this game probably never will be as popular as it was in the first few days. I don't want to write postmortem for this game.

Some technical rambling:

For this small demo, I created everything from scratch, using Unreal Engine 4.23. It is absolutely insane how uncomfortable it is to make it work for html5. And it is an older version without a lot of developing features. But this is the only game engine I know.

There is a mix of 2D and 3D. One for dialogues and other for the scene. It is not really 3D, there are just some subdivided planes with animation on it, created to imitate 2d animation. I hope to find a way to render it better, so the shadows move, hands rotate, and I could blend and mask images in real-time without using complicated materials.
Some features don't work as I expected, because it is a limitation of browser games. So I need to find to fix this as well.
