The very initial idea for the story came from the simple, unsettling feeling of being completely exhausted after a long, stressful day where the line between reality and tiredness starts to blur. This quickly evolved into the concept of a main character being trapped in a "time reset" loop inside her apartment, making her question her own sanity. The key element from the start was that this loop wasn't accidental; it was set up like a game by some unknown force, giving her a ticking timer and small, repeated clues she had to find to escape, ensuring the story focused on mystery and psychological tension over cheap thrills.
