This was a really sweet piece. I think "hungering fungi" has got to be one of my new favorite phrases. Great job picking out such evocative details about the natural world; I thought your soil descriptions and the bits about the wolves were particularly strong. Nice work!

Diana and VegaThis was so cute! Loved the illustrations for the header and the background (I noticed switching the themes, changed it).

In the Blink of an EyeOh, I loved this one. Sere-ene, ifyouknowwhatImean. I liked that it looped and I also liked that it had an end. Haunting but beautiful, and also quite educational! Also big kudos to your artist, it added a very nice touch. From a tech perspective, the images overlapped with the text sometimes making it difficult to read, and the actual choice was sometimes only visible if you went into full screen mode, but those are minor things :)

Night Feeding - InkJam 2023This was entrancing, meditative, and beautiful. I had a lot of fun playing! The contrast of Stage Four with the rest was very evocative.
As a quick note, I also had the bug where I couldn't progress but found a work around. What happened was that after each new stage, I couldn't see the options that followed it. I think it's possible the issue is a result of #CLEAR working? The issue was fixed by saving and loading.

new eyesThanks for playing! Initial tests seemed to indicate that it was the #IMAGE tag refusing to load content beneath it, so we tried a workaround with #CLEAR; perhaps that's malfunctioning in some way? Documentation on integrating images with Ink seems to be limited, unfortunately. But thank you for playing on despite the bug!
Thanks for playing our game (and not giving up at the bug! We're trying to fix the loading issue but it's currently baffling us.)
Immortality and the ways that affects the perception of time were definitely on our minds while creating this! And we definitely liked implementing that cheeky little time loop as a nod to endless, eternal cycles.
I wish there was more to this! It's short and sweet, and I think this has a lot of potential if you want to expand it. The descriptions feel concrete, it feels like you're really there. I'm not sure if there's supposed to be more to the story right now, it feels like a very abrupt end as soon as you reach Stage 1. I also really like the title card for Stage 1, the art is quite nice even though it's a little buggy right now.

The Blinkit's not often you see entries so full of life and living. and yet, still profoundly sad even before the fire, knowing it's coming. very nice

Story GenerationDefinitely curious about why and how character's connected to the land. There's a sorrow there that they're not ready to face head on yet. It's short and linear at the moment, but great foundations. (edit: I voted based on my play experience early on, so I'm not sure if there was a fix later because my playthrough was quite short?)
