I have nothing to say but wow. This is truly art.
All the dialogues on different items unfolded the story extremely well. I read the items representing childhood, friendship, good moments, and losses... this is truly a masterpiece.
In addition, this game healed me. I had a little bit of personal problems about friendship, and I took some of these items in an instant. Items representing memories carries much more value than they are originally, and this game used dialogues, visuals, and gameplay... to converse emotions so well. In addition, I loved the end hesitation part. It truly got me into reflecting on a lot of my memories. I hesitate to admit it, but I got really emotional during the gameplay. That's what I love about video games. They can be a form of beautiful art piece with emotional tellings, just like this one.
I think the value of this game goes beyond this jam--in fact, it is beyond a simple game; however, from the jam perspective, you guys should get a back to back win with this game. I have yet to play many submissions, but this is the winner.
Thanks so much for including me in the end credits. I am so happy to be able to inspire a little bit for a masterpiece like this. Some of my earlier games are inspired by Korgen as well; credits to him from me also, truly an amazing game dev and person.
This is a deeply emotional storytelling game and you guys executed this perfectly. Your team can execute every types of games extremely well in a jam with such a short duration, truly amazing.
