This is a pretty unique entry for me this jam. A gameplay-light, narrative heavy entry. The pensive, forlorn music goes well with the context, and some conversations strike resonant with anyone who's been/ is in a relationship. An introspective, reflective piece. The aesthetics was also another strong point, great that there were different settings for different scenes.

Engaging story, and nice look and feel, good work.  Only played it once tho, the options were very similar so I dont know how different the endings would be.  Bustling coffee shop... only 2 ppl in it, no staff or anything :)

This game is definitely all about the story.

A story about how broken people hide their insecurities, and how, if you're lucky enough, when those insecurities are exposed, that there is someone there to help you through it.

I went back to see if there were multiple endings, but it's either decided earlier in the story or there is only one ending.  Either way it is a good story.

Thank you for sharing it.

I wanted to put multiple endings in but couldn't because of tech problems but would definitely do it after the jam.

thanks for playing.

It really is a nice story, multiple endings would make the decisions we make have meaning, but I felt that part of the point to it was that for most of the decisions that there wasn't a "right" answer to give.  You had to go through the bad, to find the good.

thats a great vision actually and I had that in mind too but also want to give it more endings.

Loved the story. Game looks great and the music is spot on. The incorporation of the ‘Last Stand’ theme through the couple’s struggle to find balance amidst conflict was very unique.

Really cool game that took me by surprise. I think it takes a lot of guts to tackle a serious and emotional topic like this with a game jam game and you did an excellent job.

Not usually my style of game but I found myself playing until the end so well done. Im not sure if i'm a terrible partner but I think I ended the relationship but still needed up with one.

Good set design for this one. The music fit. The theme was good. I found myself wanting to do a little more or have some more choices as I played, but the concept is solid and the relational aspect of this game was good!
