unfortunately not home and cant play but watched a video and the minigames look neat and such an emotional one too great work

Such a emotional story. You did a great job making the player feel a certain way. The art is also nice. So well done overall :)

This was Beautiful! I loved the minigames.

Damn! Emotional damage! The most touching game in this jam, you made a really great job in this game, it's so emotional, and I liked all the minigames (GameJoy has a bug in which even after I beated, I keep hearing the sounds of it during other minigames), the ending of the story is so sad, but also teach a lesson, congrats!

A touching story woven through such cozy minigames. The art adds on to that comfort. I adored the creativity with the enveloppe minigame and something about that paper sound with the postcard hit just right (probably some nostalgic sound from older games, or reminiscent thereof).

Very well done. congrats on your submission and the attention this game garnered. Absolutely deserved

This made me tear up a bit :'( But very well done! :)

That was really sad... 10/10

This was a very cute minigame collection with a very touching ending! Thank you for sharing this game!

Beautiful game! So many emotions! Why Would You Do This To Me?!

Loved this experience. Really beautifully done, in all aspects. But man, for some reason the GameJoy game was one of the hardest games I played in the jam hahaha

Oh Boy... this is one of those games causes me to experience an exetential spiral (˘ŏ_ŏ). This was really good, I tried to do everything I would do if I were dying soon. Great game, really 10/10

Wow, absolutely beautiful and heartfelt. This was kind of hard to play at times, but in a good way! The tragedy of this is very real, but I appreciate that you were able present a positive outlook on the reality of life and death. I’m really glad I found this one, thank you for making this!

What a wonderful little gem. Great work!

What a really sad and beautiful game, it’s genuinely heart-wrenching at points, with such a sweet story and touching minigames! We especially loved the phone conversations, since they feel so realistic and natural, which made the story hit even harder.

Only a couple small notes:

he minigame was fun, though the assets felt a little mismatched stylistically. If it’s meant to resemble a Game Boy game, it might look even better in black-and-white (or that classic green tint), just a small nitpick though!

We also noticed that during the minigame, some UI elements would flash after dying, almost like the game was still playing in the background. It’s minor but worth flagging in case it affects other segments. (sorry hard to show in screenshot but imagine the connected part of the phone flashing)

Overall though, this was a really lovely and heartfelt experience, powerful, emotional, and beautifully written. Amazing work!

Beautiful game.

Apparently this game was TOO good because it made me cry 😅 But seriously, although it was short I was completely immersed from beginning to end. The minigames were satisfying to complete, the music was peaceful, and I loved the art style. As for the story itself, this was such an amazing take on the theme "Death is an Opportunity," and it really makes you reflect on your own life - what you've done so far in life, and what things you should make more time for; whether or not you should retreat into isolation when things get hard, or reach out to those you love, even just to hear their voices. This game was amazing and I enjoyed every second of it. Great job making me cry! 😂

Well, dang. I did not think that a game jam game could hit me right in the feelings. You played it straight and pulled off some real emotional catharsis with your interpretation of the theme. Thank you for sharing this game with the world!

For feedback, there were really only two critiques I could find. The tone of the opening cutscene played it dead straight and to transition into the game to see "Mini-games Completed: 0/5" after talking about making the best of the time I have left was a touch jarring. Just some verbiage about "Tasks Left" or something I think would make the theming more consistent. The second was just a simple bug related to the GameJoy. I think the code for that game runs in the background as I put it down at one point and accidentally pressed one of the WASD inputs. I put my invisible ship into a death loop and the screen kept shaking while I was playing the rest of the game. Super minor, but I thought you might want to know as the developer. Excellent work!

It was such a lovely experience, and a very unique take on the theme. The medical letter was sad but her scribbling made me chuckle.

Well done, this was a misty eyes experience!
