really like the overall feeling of the game and the artstyle is really great, well done ❤️

Developer

Thank you so much <3

I loved how coherent and solid this game is! The artworks, the style you chose, the dialogs you wrote, everything serves the main story. It starts with an ambitious incipit, involving the entire planet, and then the game focuses on the life of one single person; that's a beautiful way to tell a story. That makes this game definitely worth of playing! :D

Great job :)

Aaaaahhh your words are so nice ! Thank you ! I'm glad I could make a nice experience for you :D

Submitted

Fantastic! Its amazing you made a world that feels so big in just 48 hours. I’m blown away by the art and music especially. And I love your sense of storytelling! Great work!!

Developer

Thank you so much, people enjoying this is what motivates me to make more !!

The art is indeed mine, but the music was made by psovod. Good stuff, I agree.

cool story, i like the mysteriousness of the game which is multiplied by the spoopy soundtrack, i also really enjoyed the chicken man

Developer(+1)

Thank you, the chicken's name is Linda. I plan on making a new version just to add another spooky ending and to develop the dialogue a bit more, so you'll be able to learn more about the characters hopefully !

Submitted

thats so cool! i hope we can learn more about linda

I like it a lot :) Maybe more moody than spooky, but I got kind of invested from scratch and enjoyed it a lot ^^ Thanks for making this game

Developer

That's fair ! Thank you for enjoying the game :)

I love everything about this!!!! The artstyle (and opening cutscene especially) is so... adorable? Is that the word? I'll just say that looking at your art fills me with joy. The dialogue is right up my alley and the general aesthetic is so... gosh, I love it so much!! This feels like it was tailored specifically to what I like in storytelling and games, haha. Fantastic job and you have definitely earned yourself a fan!

Developer(+2)

I will file this under comments that give you eternal youth and creative power. Thank you so much !!

I had to go with the scribbly art vibe because I sure wasn't going to have the time to make full blown detailed artwork... so I went full force into pen drawings. I'm proud of the end result !

I am so happy I found my audience. I made what I like, which is a bit more reliant on storytelling/slow pacing/writing, and less on direct game mechanics (because I don't know how to design game mechanics yet !).

Thanks again !

perfect >:)

Very nice game, and good interpetation of the theme, and I love the graphics and music! :D
Just the fullscreen breaks the game (you can't see text and choices) I thought the game got stuck for a moment, you should warn not to use it/ remove it

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for your feedback !

I didn't check full screen :( I added a warning in the description, thank you for the heads up !
