You've crafted a lovely experience here. While text-heavy games such as this aren't usually cup of tea, the story kept me engaged. The music you've chosen pairs well with the pacing and lovely art of the game, and the different tracks suit each scene nicely. It's got a very nice, relaxing vibe.

Like someone else mentioned, the gameplay was a bit repetitive as there wasn't much to do other than click. Perhaps the fishing portion of the game could switch things up? Also, I managed to catch a few fish, but then they stopped biting so I'm glad there was the skip fishing option 😅. 

I'm keen to see how memoria castaway develops and where you plan to take it. At the moment it's a promising start to something really intriguing. Good luck in your plans to develop this one further!

Beautiful experience. Love the designs and everything is so calm. Everything is perfect, and the game has left me speechless. I look forward to seeing the continuation of the story. 

Developer

Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it! The story has already been fully planned out but we weren't able to get it all in by the jam deadline, which is why this is only a portion of it haha. Stay tuned for more!

The game has interesting premise, especially I love the mood in the beginning of the game. The graphics and art style is very good. 

Regretfully I have difficulties in the fishing part, so maybe a gameplay video on how to fish is needed.

edit: after able to skip fishing part, finished the game. The game is good, keep going!

Developer

I'm glad you're enjoying it! Super sorry about that bug, hopefully with that fix now you're able to progress to the rest of the game :(

I really love this game, the art is incredible and it is very simplistic, and the music is outstanding, extremely peaceful and would sooth the mind of the angriest person on earth. However, obviously, the main thing is the story, it was really, really good and calm, but near the end of the opening part where you are on the gem thing, I sort of wanted to do something rather than just click, but apart from that, it was a really solid game! Finally, I didn't really see the correlation with the theme and was a bit confused, but the game was great!

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback! The bug theme becomes apparent later in the story, but unfortunately due to time restrictions of the jam, we weren't actually able to get to that part of the story for the prototype, whoops. However, we do plan on continuing work after the jam and will be releasing the full game once it's done!
