Glitch!

Sorry to be getting to this so late after the jam, but I'm glad I finally got around to it.

Such a lovely demo. Short but very (bitter)sweet. As usual, you really nailed the visual and audio aesthetic. The art style is beautiful, sound design is fantastic, and I really liked how you used the fade effect to add a bit more animation to the scene, especially when the protagonist decides to give Meadow food.

just, all around great job, especially in such a short jam time!

Now, storywise, I was defintely left with more questions than answers, even after the true ending. I COMPLETELY understand this is a demo though and you probably intend on expanding the story, or at least planned on it :) 

If you do go back to expanding the story, I think what I'd like to see the most is to learn more about the protagonist... how did he find Meadow? What brought him to understand her on such a deep level? Was it personal expiernence? And what led him to write that poem? 

Also it would be kind of neat if some of the vague choices like "Allow Meadow to trust you" could be elaborated on or even expanded into several more choices. Like how does the protagonist get Meadow to trust him?

But of course all of these are just things I wish I could have known about in an already very touching and bittersweet concept.

Eager to see where this goes if you develop it more! And if not, that's ok too! Even as a demo, it's a beautiful accomplishment!

no need to apologize, my late response is surely a sign that sometimes it's hard to get around to stuff, even if youre interested in it lol.

i'm so happy you enjoyed :] a lot of my games, as i'm sure you've noticed, tend to deal with heavy topics in a way that makes them as nuanced and comprehensive as i can get. and as always, i appreciate the thought put towards my artwork <3

of course, many details of the story were intentionally left out to help me get the game done in time for the jam, but i appreciate the questions and once i finally get around to expanding the game fully, they'll all be taken into consideration~ a lot of both the protagonist and Meadow's actions are connected to the fact that they've had similar lives and experiences, though it's something i didn't get to explore in this demo.

thank you so much for your comment, and i apologize deeply for such a delay in response. the care and attention you've put towards my games is not without recognition <33
