- I like the idea of making a puzzle game and I think it works really well. My only issue is that it isn’t always very clear what you need to do, which can occasionally make the puzzles feel more frustrating than interesting. For example, some of the objects you need to interact with, like the boats, aren’t connected to the path which can make them seem more like decorations rather than a path for the player to take. But other than that, I think this is a really solid game with a great concept.
- Puzzles were a bit unforgiving. It was painful to have to restart from the beginning each time.
- Serene vibes, great sound design, definitely made the experience peaceful and calm which fit the speed of the character and general lack of urgency. Could have benefitted from a gameplay perspective by making things move faster, but I don't think that was the intention, so I can appreciate it! Bigger signs would've been nicer.
