This is absolutely fantastic. From the interface, to the ambient bubbles, the chill music, and the blink transitions. The stories are very wholesome and well thought out. You did a lot with a little and made me feel things. Keep doing this stuff.

Very polished, and looks great. Nice little stories I enjoyed.

This could just be me, but I found the text hard to read as it was appearing on screen, and usually had to wait until the line of text was finished (and not moving) before reading on.

Definitely one of my favorites! I love everything about it and found myself wanting to explore every story. It was a great experience.

I'm very impressed, it looks nice, it feels good, and it feels like I could keep exploring it for a long time. That's very impressive for a game jam!

This honestly gave me Undertale vibes with how you executed the message within this. Spectacular job on this! I love how there were many messages within this sequence of stories and the mesmerizing music to reel players in even more. This blew me away in lots of ways. Many thanks for this game!

Very clever and original. The visual presentation and music are very attractive, and the stories are varied and unexpected. And what an interesting way to use "weight."

Note: In some of the stories, it is a little difficult to tell from the prompt what action the character will take.

One typo: I think you misspell the word "busy" in the "ordinary man" story.

Developer(+1)

Already corrected that typo! many thanks for the review! ^^
i'll submit the changes later, thanks :D

Very cool concept. Something I never would have thought of.

Also I would Really Appreciate it if you played my game.

Already played it, Nice game btw, man!

Very neat concept, with some cute aesthetics.


I put my weight as 75 and noticed Mary was referred to as both him and her as I was going through, though I may have misread.

Also, I wasn't sure if the weight was an abstract number or correlated to pounds or kilos.
Developer

I was thinking in kilos, also, sorry for those little things, english is not my principal language, i'm from spain ^^"

Your English is very good! Much better than my Spanish for sure!

Developer
