Interesting idea, good graphics, I like it. Can you evaluate my game as well?
the art style is really nice
This is a game where I just sit back and relax and play through the story of the game.
Amazing work! Definitely one of my favorite submissions out here :)
Hi there,
this is my favorite game I played so far.
The black white graphics are really cool.
What a story!
It really surprised me is how captivating it was!
I got really entangled into it and wanted to let the story unfold.
Also it's really well made that you gave small missions so you always knew what to do.
I also really liked the emotional part of the story and how each character went through their own self doubt. Maybe in the end I felt it got somewhat cheesy the way it was presented, with this overused theme 'together we're strong' that you hear in every movie. But I really liked the overall message of 'you 're not alone in your struggles'. I might have put more emphasis on 'you can reach out to others and help others and find they have the same struggles as you' more than 'someone will be there for you in your struggles'. Personally I find that more realistic.
But I thoroughly enjoyed this game, you're excellent story tellers,
so thank you for the good time!
Edit:
I also really like how you incorporated the jam theme. It was very creative and well done.
Cool game, I dont really like story games, but it was nice. And the pixel art was nice
Interesting art and calming environment
The artstyle and music is vibes~~~
Nice game! The artstyle is really cute and the music is very well made. The game was very simple but very interesting and had a really cool story! Good job!
pleasant
good design and art
love the style !
Nice Game!
I loved the characters and the art, the ending message was so touching and the art is beautiful. This felt very similar with the art style and pallet to undertale and i LOVED it.
I really appreaciated the differences between the characters and story. You managed to give them quite a lot of soul in such a short game.
I loved seeing the different character sprites and how their speaking sounds matching them really nicely. Also having that cutscene at the end was a good touch! Great work!
Hey the game doesn't seem to be working with kbm controls
It seems to be working for me and others I had play test it
okay I'll try again in another browser. Before I rate!
Yeah works fine, not sure what happened the first time I tried it. Nice game!
