  • I truly thought this game was beautiful, from art direction to sound quality. From the smoothness of the mechanics to the soundtracks used to tell a powerful story that comes to reveal itself only during the end credits. Thank you for sharing this. The quality was top-notch, and touching.
  • Great art and music but would've liked to see it fleshed out a bit more!

I'm going to be 100% honest. I'm not sure I fully get it. That being said, I spent a long time with it just typing in lots of random words and laying back down the bed clicking through prompts. I was attached to my screen wanting to figure out what this was all about. The dreary pixel art. The rain drizzling past the window. The depressing (and sometimes optimistic) text pop ups. The music (at least at the beginning. It eventually changed to something really bizarre?). The vibes. The mood. It all sucked me in. Eventually I got to a point where I just let the timer expire and watched as a million different random words scrolled on the screen, but I think you absolutely nailed something not many story-driven game jam games do which is create atmosphere. This game oozed atmosphere. Well done!
