What was the origin story?
I was going to make a game in memory of my blind granny cat, Jinx, who was 22 when she crossed the rainbow bridge. I started making plans but they depressed me too much and I ended up discontinuing the project.
I've also wanted to make a game about Charon, the ferryman of the dead, where he transports people to the "underworld" in his little boat, whiles listening to their stories.
This game is both "Cadaver Pit" (using assets from Asset Pack Jam), and "Franken Combination" (Fuse multiple dead projects in some capacity).
I would count this as a success, as it is a fully fledged (albeit short) game, in the style of a visual novel, done in Ren'py.

A very sad and a touching game. It's only a game that someone who's had pets could really understand on that deep emotional level. Huge props for using photos of your cats too, made it hit all the harder.
There's something about the afterlife that is uniquely intriguing not only from a narrative perspective but deep 'what is the meaning of life' type stuff. If you're into that I strongly recommend a book called 'The Case for Heaven' by Lee Strobel.
Overall amazing game!
Cute little game! I approve since I also have cats in my life and don't want to ever see them go.
I think you should have some sort of music in the title screen, especially since there are settings for volume in the main menu. When I first started it I guess I was expecting music and thought my headphones weren't working for a brief moment.
very cute, the art for the vet scene changing colors worked very well. I didn't know if there was going to be music, but was glad to hear it kick in at the right time.
Yeah, I had originally put background music throughout, but I thought I'd remove it from the start scene for exactly that reason, make people think there's no sound and then BAM! Melodic Autumn - Free Music Pack from their AssetJam because their piano song fit it really well |ω・)
AMAZING! Amazing.
Love this one. It's _really_ hard to make a story/minigame with heart and you guys NAILED IT! Very soulful.
(Extra points for Cadaver pit and franken combination if either or both apply since Charon's pet was made in grombdoll. good job!)
Thank you so much! (♥ω♥*) I saw a comment on the Grombdoll Assets's page at the beginning of the game jam saying to help bring it to life for Revival Jam 2 and I slightly misunderstood the assignment by adding them into my game. As I thought they meant to use the Grombdoll characters themself, but in hindsight I think they wanted someone to finish the dress up Gombdoll game lol. I only noticed a week or so into joining Discord that the Grombdoll was a kind of mascot in this game jam/community lol. I think the Grombdoll worked well for the Grim Reapers though (´∀`)♡
