Really enjoyed the story and the vocals for last song were very good!

Gorgeous platformer. I absolutely love the visuals and the audio, and the dialogue is so well written! Pressing the spacebar works a solid 75% of the time it seems, but it’s not that big of a deal. This is such a unique take on the theme (I expected more people to use slow burn as in the romance genre). Fantastic work!
Really fantastic art and effects,. The intro story hooks you right from the beginning.
Such a beautiful world you created there. The story in the beginning was very nice and sweet as well.
As a Japanese person, I also noticed that the music in the title screen is a traditional Japanese song "Ureshii Hinamatsuri". Does it have any meaning behind it?
Actually, I picked the songs based on the feeling I wanted each moment of the game to convey. I chose this track because I wanted something that felt both melancholic and childlike, so it would fit the whole "children's story" vibe, like The Little Prince. That said, some of my inspirations for the story are definitely Japanese, and they influence my work in general, like Summer Vacation 1999/1999年の夏休み and Fragile Dreams/フラジール ~さよなら月の廃墟~ (Wii)

It is a good thing you made a downloadable version, for the browser one for me was not really working well. But I loved the art and setting so I downloaded it.
Such a sweet story, pretty music and absolutely stunning art.
Please consider adding settings to remove some of the shaders you're using, for some people could get dizzy. Also the transitions of "levels" seem to be a bit buggy, they flashed. Still, this game is so so so pretty and amazing. Very well done
Not gonna lie. This game has probably the best atmosphere in the entire jam. Controls where intuitiv and clear from the beginning. Good Job!
Great game. I'm a foreigner, so I couldn't fully feel and understand your story. I really like the graphics in this game. You're great :)
But I would really appreciate it if you played my game too
I couldn’t really see how the game connects to the jam theme, but the game itself is absolutely fantastic. Every aspect of it is executed at an exceptionally high level!
An absolutely lovely work of art. This is one of those games that reminds you how much power there is in videogames as a storytelling medium, and even in such a short game, you can tell how much love and care was poured into every detail. For sure the Gwizziness is off the charts here. I applaud this one!
That's rough buddy

Very well written game, the gameplay itself has a few bugs, like sometimes when the character was supposed to be resting he jumps out of the platform without me pressing to jump, but that is not really that degrading. The graphics are gorgeous and the music is beautiful too, other than the story itself, pretty emotional.
A really lovely creation. It was really fun and charming with its well written short story and pretty visuals. And the music was really fitting. The level of polish in this game - which boasts a full-fledged romance storyline, multiple game modes, and skins - is really impressive.
Unfortunately, I think the link to the theme seems tenuous to me and a bit far-fetched. But more about the game on its own, maybe it lacks some feedback? The double jump felt really weak and hard to see.
Anyway, past that, it was a really enjoyable experience!
