Such a shockingly beautiful game. I didn't expect so much emotional impact from a visual novel not only so short but also so seemingly simple. The relationship dynamic between Sam and Marie is so compelling and tragic, and the subtle references both in terms of foreshadowing and outside sources is truly impressive. The line delivery from voice actors felt shockingly professional from just a small itchio game, and it made the whole experience so much more immersive! From amazing writing to such moving artwork and even beautiful music, there's not a thing to dislike about this game. If I had one complaint (and this is my own personal issue in media), some words get very repetitive throughout the writing. The small detail is one easy to look past, however, the minor sheet peeling off to reveal one of the best visual novels I've played in recent years. All the love in the world to the creators, they have a talent you don't see often, and I could not agree more in this game winning the awards it did!
