i was trying to open the game from different browers but it didnt work , i dont know what the problem!!

but it seems like a good one 

Developer

It should work in Chrome, Edge, and Safari (at least that's what I've tested). Are you getting any specific errors that would help me troubleshoot? It's just a Unity WebGL game, so nothing exotic.

Submitted

no , just this error , it downloaded till 90% and stopped

omg i loved how it felt so cathartic playing the game. the little texts back and forth after each one was so beautiful! definitely my fav part <3 I think a little different direction with the music would really make this hit harder!!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words. Maybe I'll revisit the music after the jam.

This is honestly such a brilliant submission. Lines like "the builder and the poet working together" after looking in the notebook really hit me strongly. There's clearly a lot of love poured into this game and it is executed near perfectly. The only issue I can see is the amount of external assets, but it so beautifully hits the nail on the head in so many ways I don't think that should matter. Definitely my favourite submission. 

Developer

Thanks so much for playing and for the thoughtful feedback! I completely get what you mean about the external assets — I’d love to be able to make all the art and music myself someday. For now, they just helped me get the story out the way I imagined it. I’m really happy to hear it still connected the way I hoped it would.
