The art and music are very pretty! I like the concept too, it just needs a bit more strategic depth. Perhaps a penalty for missing the station. Currently the most optimal strategy for a longer train is just walking over the whole thing while spamming stamp. In any case, congrats!

What a lovely game, I also really like the circular parralax effect. We would need a sprint after 10 train cars because you almost got no time to go from one side to the other end.

Annah Chronisreally nice sound track and the souls are in a better place now. Maybe the real soul were the treasure we found along the way!

See You AGAIN AGAIN GMTK2025Really unique and meditative ! The art is great, the sound design immersive and there is a story too (which I see for the first time in this year's GMTK game jam) ! I appreciated the incentive to stamp the tickets in the center, so the player has at least a little challenge in a contemplative game :)
Really lovely, the art and music coming together to create such a wonderful cozy atmosphere. A lot of beauty here.

ReclamationOupsi daisy, my loco got a little problem (the front part near the wheels vanished) ! I liked a lot your game, just a bit dissapointed, i didn't get much to admire in the environnement to fullfill my train controller journey. Overall, your game is really great and i liked a lot to do about Three loops around the stations ! This was a relaxing moment

SCALE & TAIL - GMTK 2025Clean game! The best art I've seen so far. My only criticism is that the game a little too simple, to the point where it gets repetetive.

WorkroW (GMTK 2025)Wow what a gorgeous game! The 3d perspective for the background elements is really neat looking. Solid gameplay, but it took a while to really figure out what I should be doing, especially "advanced" techniques like going faster by standing at the front, or skipping tickets that are not immediately coming up. I think just a few pacing tweaks would go a long way. Really enjoyed this one!
