This was really fun, the wheel of memories is a cool idea, I like it. The minigames are fun (though I don't know why it was 0000001... it'll haunt me )
Thank you for playing! I have to confess...I don't know why I chose that either.
cool idea for a game
Thank you!
Wow, this was such a unique and beautiful experience, well done! Now I have to go outside and appreciate our spinning rock
Thank you :)
The first 30 seconds of the game I was confused and was going to move on to the next game, but I am SO glad I played til the end. I LOVED IT! The writing was so descriptive and at times funny. It really immersed me into the game the way you described all the senses for each of the scenes. And then the ending was so nice and creative. Honestly one of my favorites of the jam so far, well done!
Some quiet background or ambiance music would have been cool at each of the scenes
Thank you for your kind words, it really means a lot. I agree, I really wanted to add music and more ambient sounds and soundscapes.
A very nice story! Reminded me mechanically of those hooda escape flash games haha, although I think a little more puzzle would've been fun. The ending paragraph was really neat. I loved the flower segment with the ascii art so much! I realize that probably would've taken longer, but the ascii + text adventure game is such a perfect combo, I'd consider leaning into it if you make more games in this style :)
Thanks for playing! I used to play so many flash games, it's an honor to be compared to one. I really liked how the ascii turned out, I already have a couple ideas for how to use that in future games. Thanks for the great feedback!
It was a little bit of time consuming but the stories were nice
Thank you for playing!
A nice collection of short stories. The interactive parts were fun, but having to restart the computer code sequence from the beginning everytime you made a mistake on the last one was a bit frustrating 😅 While the text was very good at setting the scene, I think some nice ambience sounds would've been a good addition.
Ending was both sad and sweet, kind of wants me to go outside :D Great job!
Thank you for the feedback! Yeah, I think I made that computer part too hard. And definitely would've liked to add more sound effects.
Yooo the text and overall vibe of this game feels so poetic, I love it!! Do you write? I really love this scene:
I love the idea of immersing yourself with the senses. Also really liked the computer game! I also love the last sentence, "Cherish the moments you have, forever." This game is so fire! I love how you realize how beautiful this world is through the moments and senses you have, from the taste of grass to the pretty flowers!! I realized at the end why it's called Spinning Rock, and it's so beautiful!
Thank you so much! I'm glad the game resonated with you. I appreciate your kind words!
