How does your game meet GBJam's theme
The old gold is nothing more than a relic: a pocket watch. But it carries great weight for the character—to him, it is more valuable than a chest of gold. The game is about a search through grandma’s house, where he spent so much time, and maybe it was time to relive those moments again.

Really sweet story, and all the little details in the dialogue make it feel personal

what a wonderful little experience! very sweet and touching story and nice interpretation of the theme. all of the detail in the dialogue makes it feel very personal and relatable. i wish there was a narrative category so i could easily give you 5 stars! i also enjoyed the music. it’s simple and a bit repetitive because it’s so short, but it’s a nice little melody that sets the mood well. great job!
