This was such a beautiful little time capsule, which allowed me to visit a time, place and perspective I could never have experienced otherwise.
Before even playing, the setting, the Irish language, the topics of queerness and neurodivergence just made me so happy that this game even exists.
Tenderness and care, the way some places anchor you, parent-child relationships, tacit relationships, the influence of language converged so perfectly into a pulling sensation, a sort of nostalgia for the present that made me think "who is home?".
In the end, what hit me most was the reasons that people keep themselves apart for, that are hard to explain, or even understand, but still seem unsurmountable somehow.
I found the narrative structure really tight and solid, and loved the click-to-translate mechanics. As Irish words are progressively repeated, you slowly stop translating the ones you recognize, at first single words, then short phrases, then full sentences.
VERY excited to see you're considering making an Irish-only game someday. As someone who knows no Gaeilge at all and desperately wants to learn it: do it. This is the perfect medium, and the perfect person to achieve it.
Well done!
