Aw, I quite enjoyed the way you delivered  asentimental narrative through cozy, hand drawn art. It felt intimate and special. Personally, I would have liked some more light control prompting, just so I didn’t have to guess how to interact with each memory.

Submitted

This was so lovely! Every small mechanic felt intentional to each snippet- it's very impressive you were able to get all them done,  as well as build a story like this in the few days. Congrats to the team!

The story telling was concise, the artwork was visually pretty and the gameplay was simple but quite refreshing, a nice mix of mechanics that kept me engaged to see the story through to the end. Good Job!!

Submitted

Beautiful game, beautiful art work. The game pace suits the style of the story telling and the theme. Wonderful experience ♡⸜(˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)⸝♡

Very creative take on the theme! Impressive to fit so many mechanics/mini-games in one game. The art and narrative is super charming as well. Great work!

Submitted

A beautiful and touching narrative expressed through a series of small, meaningful minigames. It felt like a well‑crafted short film: brief, delicate, and unforgettable once it ends. <3

Submitted

That was technically, visually and alternatively impressive!

Submitted

Beautiful and touching! I loved every little minigame (even if, in my version of Rolande's life, her piano lessons were especially shameful and traumatic haha).

You've made something really special, elegant, and real. Wonderful work!!

Absolutely incredible, I loved every sequence of this game. The narrative is so good, and i cried a bit haha.

I really like to discover the mechanic by trying it, as in wario ware games, this is something i've never seen in a narrative game.

Well done everyone !!!

Amazing game. Such an emotional rollercoaster, the story is just so melancholy. The audio and art tie everything together, great job! 5 Stars!!!!!

Submitted

This is such a beautiful game. I adore the simplistic art style, the story, the feels. Wonderful job

Submitted

One of my favorite of the jam. Definitely the best narrative. By vibes of Florence in this beautiful story <3

Thanks for sharing this one!

Submitted

lovely!

Lovely art and a heartfelt emotional story that has what I'm looking to play games for, to understand the experiences and lives of others through art

Developer

Thanks a lot for your comment, it means a lot <3

Submitted

oh my god.. I'm quite easily moved by such things but still, it's incredible and got me all teary eyed.

value the little moments in your life, the people in your life, and even if sometimes life gets dark, you can and will still find happiness

honestly inspired me to make something story-driven next time as well. Awesome. Full 5 star on every category, my favorite game so far for sure.

Developer

Thank you so much for your comment! It means a lot to us to know that our tiny game was able to move and inspire you <3 As devs, it was also a great experience to make something story-driven, especially since we usually make very different kinds of games. So if you feel like giving it a try next time, we’d definitely recommend it!

Submitted

i got so sad :(

Developer

Oh nio :( We're sorry for the feeling, but happy that the game touched you (so we're soppy, I guess?) Thanks a lot for playing it!

Submitted

Glorious, glorious game. The artstyle is gorgeous, the sound design is insane and the level of polish is incredible. So creative too. Reminds me a lot of Florence (and it's a high praise as it's one of my favorite games!). Well done, team!

Developer(+1)

This is indeed a high praise, thanks a lot for giving it a go and for your kind words <3

Submitted

Incredible game. It is unexpecting to encounter such submission to a game jam. Great job

Developer

Indeed haha, we were afraid it was not really a "game-jamey" vibe, so thanks a lot for trying it out!

Submitted

Absolutely beautiful! The most touching jam game I have ever played, by far. Beautiful art, great audio, very round minigames. Incredible amount of polish for a jam game. Perfect length. My favorite entry so far!

Developer

Thank you so much for your kind words, we're really happy it touched you <3

Submitted

nice story,  and nice game

Developer

Thank you! :)
