Hi MishuA! I played the first chapter in Chrome on Windows 11, and what a gentle little world. The title screen alone made me slow down, and "There is no falling, no failing" felt like a kind hand on the shoulder.
To your question about the first crossing: I wasn't sure which light I was controlling at first. Both lights start on the same island, and the small triangle above Swell was the only hint, so I pressed keys without knowing who would move. I also read the "HUSH" label under the far well as a character's name, not as "Hush's well".
Once I read the line at the bottom, it clicked: the one who stays behind is what lets the other move forward. That's a lovely idea, and I think it could land even before any reading. Maybe a soft glow around the active light, and a tiny blue light icon on the well instead of the name?
Thank you for making something so quiet and kind. I'm looking forward to chapters 2 and 3.
