For Ryan - A game for a late friend

For Ryan
A browser game made in HTML5

This is my first time posting to the itch.io community. Hopefully it goes welle! A few years ago we lost our friend Ryan Torrance. I haven't found a proper way of dealing with and accepting his passing so I wanted to make something to commemorate him.

This is a short game I made about seeing Ryan in heaven. The inspiration for the game came from the song "Tears In Heaven" by Eric Clapton and the bible verse “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.” The goal is to regain your memories of Ryan before you get taken up into Heaven.

I will be making small updates here and there for the coming weeks but I hope people enjoy it.

I would love to hear any other developers experience creating a game to help deal with loss. Let me know what you think!
