Thank you so much for playing my game! And thanks for the amazing video!! I really liked the tone you used and the music and rain effects are stuff I wish I had put in the game! In fact, I think I'll add some ambiance right now.  I wasn't sure if this was game I wanted to keep working on, but after the reception I've gotten so far I am definitely motivated to keep working on it! As a side note about Sam, I kind of envisioned them as being non-binary which is why I used they/them pronouns for most of it. Thanks again for the video, it really means a lot to me! :D

Rayha’s Poem is a third person narrative platformer about a young girl running away to the mythical Fairyland to escape injustice.  Drawing on themes of South Asian folklore and contemporary social issues, Rayha’s Poem seeks to tell a tale that’s both out of, as well as a product of, its time – a narrative that melds the always-relevant curse of forced marriage with the eternal dream of a land free from woe.

This game was created as a year-long thesis project at the NYU Game Center.

Thanks!
