Design Statement
The sound track gives a warm and nostalgic feeling yet it is very hopeful at the end. We want to connect this feeling with personal experience as a pet parent, dealing with loss and memories we share with our pets. We want to invoke resonance with whom also shared a similar experience with this game.
