How does your game fit the theme?
It didn't end up fitting the theme well honestly. I originally wanted it to have a Majora's Mask style time loop. I didn't have time to incorporate it either technically or creatively.

Very cool art style and music 

Submitted

love the artstyle, it kinda reminds me of yume nikki (like a surrealist kind of atmoshere); I see potential:)

Thank you. I was amazed by the art in your submission as well.

The art and music is nice

Developer

Thanks :)

I enjoyed it for how short it was, the art style and music theme works for it. Hard to decipher any meaning from it: stranded fish, swan, tower of ambition, masks of emotions (?). May fit as a contemplative art piece than a game maybe

Developer

I had no decipherable meaning in mind. I sort of made everything that came to mind without second guessing, for better or worse. I take "contemplative art piece" as a real compliment. Thanks for the feedback.

It seems like a sad little story, but I couldn't find the last item, so I don't know the ending. However, I really liked the art style and the music—those two parts were excellent.

Developer

Thank you for the kind words.
