I Thought about how people could connect both physically and emotionally. Naturally, I then thought about how you can climb those people.

I like how you stuck with theme of paper, cardboard, and other cheap household products. It made for a really neat environment design. I had to give up after like thirty attempts at landing on a pencil. It's tricky timing it with the paper airplane glide, plus the shadow bias makes it look like you are floating, so it is hard to judge when you will land. The game probably would have been better if it was shorter (and if the pencils with thicker).

I'm glad you liked the aesthetic of the game. It was fun making it seem like someones room. Sorry you couldn't beat it :( . I hope you will at least check out the playthrough and see the rest of the game.

I made a full playthrough video like they suggested, but it's not showing up on the left so here it is.

I really liked the way you conveyed the story in the very first moments of the game with the paper cuttings! I'm a bit stuck on the first level though! I don't know exactly where to find the key and open the door?

it's in the pipe above you when you start. you need to climb up to it. I'm glad you like it so far, hope that helps.

Yeah that's what I reckoned! I tried jumping up there from the dice and the wall, but I've just been having trouble making the jump!
