AWH this is so cute, I love the little embedded story about homecoming you have within this. This is another really wonderful implementation of the theme and the special object's applicability to the little story you've got in here just really brings it all together. There's a couple glitches here and there (but what else is new in a 4 day game jam), honestly the biggest thing I might mention is maybe reducing the hitbox on the player-character and maybe allowing space to be used as a jump button since the controls are WASD. In any case though, really wonderful job, I enjoy these kinds of games a lot- reminded me a bit of/made me a bit nostalgic for the flash games of yore

A Burning HillThere were a couple glitches here and there, but it wasn't too bad thanks to the restart option. Fun game overall!

Reflected ShadowsLovely game, the story telling alongside the music created quite the immersive experience which made me truly happy when I was able to return home. The game play was very satisfying despite the few bugs here and there. Great job! Looking forward to see what you come up with in a future jam.

Mirror PongEventhough the visuals are very simple, they fit well, i think. + Well made mechanic you made there!
