Your game made me laugh, when I said : "Your home is very colorful"

It's really pretty, the music fits well ! 

Sometimes, it's not obvious to know what we need to do to keep going.

Good job !

Lol, so great to hear that the game made you laugh! I appreciate the feedback! I’ll definitely improve on the gameplay aspect in the future.

Thank you so much for playing!

I'm blue... da ba dee da ba di... lol sorry that's probably a very generational joke. ;-)

ANYWAY I like what you've put together here. The descriptions of the objects are well written and it was an interesting approach to describe the colors while showing only greyscale. It wasn't always clear what I needed to do to advance the story: for example, the location of the dishwasher isn't obvious. But I do like the sense of discovery you've created by seeing the world through a strange and curious creature. Great job!

Thanks a lot for playing!

Glad to hear that the game come across well. For the dishwasher, I did it under the assumption that one checked out everything in the home; I should have made the dishwasher more clear lol. It seems that setting a timer on certain parts for events to play is not the best approach. I’ll definitely construct the gameplay differently in the future. Thank you very much for the feedback!

And I actually like that song lol.

What a cute little game! I'm definitely going to have to try and get all 3 endings!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing!

And good luck on getting all three endings! They’re gonna be pretty simple.

Developer(+1)

It’s great that you find it charming, and I’m glad that you notice the details in game!

Thanks a lot for playing!

It was really nice to see everything in monochromatic even though Blue describes it with color. I guess that's what people who are colorblind must experience pretty often. I know my fiancée sees blues, purples, and greens as greyscale. Not sure if it was intentional but it's a really nice touch!

The audio design was also very fitting.

Developer(+1)

Thank you thank you! It’s great that you bring attention to the monochromatic style of the game!

While the person themself is not exactly colorblind, they do lack the ability to see color on most occasions. (And few of the color they see in game is blue!)

Fun game.  I really enjoyed the limited color palette.  It made the main character stand out nicely.  

Developer

Thank you very much! I did make Blue not belong to this world so good to see that Blue stands out.

Once again, thanks for playing!

Wow! I loved this game. It's pretty simple but I guess that's the charm. It was really fun to play as Blue since you have another point of view of this type of games. The music was also very nice. Good work!

Developer

Thank you very very much!

I was afraid the game’s too simple, so it’s great to hear that it has its own charm.

Glad that you loved it!

Pros

  • Perfect implementation of the theme! If someone aksed me what magical realism is, I'd point them to this game.
  • Adorable visuals. I absolutely love Blue's sprite!
  • Simple but engaging gameplay and plot. I wanted to interact with everything in the house!
  • Amazing music! Very fitting!

Cons

  • There is no main menu screen, so even after saving, one must go through the intro in order to load a previous save file. 

Overall: this might be one of the most adorable games I've ever played! Amazing work! And from now on I consider myself a fan of Blue!

Developer(+1)

Thank you a lot for your respond!

I have lots of trouble figuring out what magical realism is lol, so it’s great the game implemented it well! And I can’t believe I didn’t put a main menu after me feeling pain having to see the intro over and over again.

Again, thank you for playing the game! It’s great that you enjoy it!
