I really liked the whole visual presentation of the game. The UI was splendid. I loved the font you used, and how it all created a cohesive identity that tied back to the light motif. Bee’s sprites were so expressive. The many small facial changes translated the characters emotions so well. The effects used throughout the game were so visceral and I really liked the transition shader.
The music was very well selected and I felt that the original and the royalty-free songs created a very fitting melange. I also liked the added reverb to the FX-sounds.
The story didn’t get me as much. I felt detached to the characters. Like, I was just observing a couple who’s reasons for sticking together were opaque to me and who’s actions towards each other were inconsequential. I would have liked to learn more about the two’s motivations and see how they reacted to the each other’s behavior. But, I think Uri’s attraction to the halo was a very smart metaphor for the sometimes inexplicable attachment that can keep folks in bad relationships. I think the writing also captured pretty well, how chat-speak and IRL-speech can be wildly different with a person.
