I really enjoyed having a visual novel to read in this jam! I loved the art and the style. The characters were so interesting, especially the meadow which was compelling and unique. It reminded me a little bit of Pottsfield in Over The Garden Wall (which is one of my favorites). If I were to add anything, it would be even more art and maybe more animations because they were very effective in getting the vibe accross. Maybe also add different endings based on choices! This was a very wholesome and enjoyable entry, thank you for sharing :)

This one is very deep. It presents a unique view to life, encompassing self-worth, loneliness, and outgrowing the experiences we used to have. The hand drawn illustrations set the atmosphere really well. It's a very uplifting view to see loneliness as something we can embrace than as something we just avoid. The only things I hate in this entry are the flowers on the meadows. Overall, pleasant experience.

How is anyone supposed to rate this without purchasing it. Too bad.
