The artwork and peaceful style of the game were fantastic! It was cool to see the character grow up as the game progressed. I could see this being more fleshed out into a longer experience

Aw, this was adorable. At first, I thought I was just able to free roam and watch the sunset because the "Find 15 butterflies" directive wasn't super loud or attention-grabbing. Still, I really enjoyed the interpretation of "count down" as a series of repeated events over a lifetime. Very touching <3

Interpreting the countdown as a lifespan creates such a poignant story and the picture book artwork is absolutely breathtaking!

Developer

Thank you! ❤️

I very endearing and charming game. I love the detail of visually seeing the character age, as well as the cute story within the game. The visuals and audio create a really calming atmosphere that make the simplistic gameplay really charming.

Very cute game

Since you mentioned the sunset, it could have been cool if the sunset changed the color of the scene as you ran out of time

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! ❤️

So cute! Also I had a hard time with the butterflies and I'm glad I still got to see the rest of the game even though I didn't finish the first challenge

Developer

Thanks! ❤️

Im all for playing any game whose title could be a red hot chilli peppers song, but then you pulled me in with the beautiful visuals! There isnt a lot of game on this game, but the narrative should carry it for those who love story focused games, but the bird picture snapping was really fun and satisfying!

Thank you for playing! ❤️

Cute game, I love the drawings! I just don't understand why there is a countdown timer. It would have been a better experience if we didn't have to rush.

Developer

Thank you for playing! ❤️
I used a timer to show how fast life goes by and that we won't have time to do everything we planned in our lives.

I am the world's biggest fan of sprite billboarding (obviously lol). I don't think it's ever done me wrong

Very nice pace, you spread out the tasks nicely for the timer. The animations were charming, but once I got to the change in artwork, nice work. I hope enough people take their time to get immersed in the narrative. <3 

Some of the clicks that weren't 1-shot could be a little confusing without much input feedback. The pace of the walking meant I relied a lot on the hitscan range of the clicking, and I think your sprite billboards are turning to face the camera position, when you're going to get a lot nicer of an effect by turning them to make the direction of the camera ray itself. :) 

One of the more narrative experiences in the jam!

I completed the game! The artwork is insanely good, and I love the 2dish 3d style! The music is so calming. I do wish you were able to expand more on the story, but considering the time constraint, this is already amazing. Congrats!
