Very good narrative game with beautifull landscapes!

The mountain will always be there, imposing, magnificent, witnessing all those short lived creatures that contemplate it, that tries to defy it...

Thank you, that was a great experience. :)

A little piece of pure art, this game captures completely your mind for 10 minutes of emotion. Congratulations!

Submitted

Interesting game :)

Submitted

Great game, loved the story and you inspired me to read the book that the game is based on!

Submitted

Wow! This is good. The narrative was beautifully written and oftentimes hits a little too close to home.

Submitted

Real piece of art. The 1 bit constraint is not really their but it was a really nice experience !

Submitted

This is such a lovely art piece. A comment on nostalgia and loss and spiraling into your past version. Enchanting (and really really cool)

Submitted

A nice little experience. I didn't fully understand the narrative itself but was enjoyable while it lasted.

Submitted

Like this a lot, the story didn't really hit home for me like some people's comments but the music and dark humor was top notch. 

Submitted

This is not a game... This is a journey that ended with me drenched in tears.
Thank you so much for this. I don't know what to say.

Submitted

Love the art style and the overall vibe, but story games are not so much my cup of tea ^^" but well done anyway :)

Submitted

Very good idea! I love this game!

Submitted

the gameplay was alright but I didn’t like the transitioning between rooms randomly

Submitted

Winner winner... A very good game, perfectly balanced. Loved it! Very emotional :,)

Submitted

Made me emotional, 10/10. I am genuinely impressed by how much emotion you managed to evoke with so little text. Amazing job!

Submitted

Absolutely beautiful. The jam's rate chart don't do this one justice.

Submitted

I loved the story, and the graphics the only issue is that you didnts sticked to the 2 colors "rule" 

Submitted

Good use of dithering effects and solid story telling!

Submitted

I unironically burst into tears when I finished the game. It's very good, it's very strong, and it's very beautiful.
