I really enjoyed your game. Your story was clear and it kept me engaged. It was a really beautiful way of covering these delicate subject matters, which occur in so many peoples daily lives. As a non technical industry professional I found it easy to follow and liked the originality.

A very sweet entry, to be sure! I wasn't expecting anything of this sort and even more surprised to bee emotionally moved by something made in such a short time. Excellent idea to make a game raising awareness for Alzheimer's disease. The audio was on-point, the visual style of photos blended with your own graphics was very good s well. I would complain about the lacking game play, without all that much going on, and barely any variety, nor a chalange, but with the feel you're going for it actually seems fitting. I've noticed that when rotating the puzzle pieces, the pivot around which they rotate is sometimes very far away, leading to them warping halfway across the screen, which broke the immersion a bit, but overall very well done.
Sweet little game. As it can be expected, there are a couple of minor adjustments to do, but overall the theme is well integrated with the game mechanics and there are also a couple of details of great quality (the effect on the faces of the pics as the time moves on is really clever, and definitely sad once you realize it). Good job!
At first I thought this game was a little unforgiving, but the difficulty ends up tying into the theme of the game, which is really cool! The rotation was buggy though, so I failed a few times when a picture piece went missing off the screen. The writing could use another pass as well.
But overall It's a lovely wee game and worth a shot ♥
