I think it's impressive how you created such an emotional game/experience in so little words. I also love how the lay-out enhances the experience and message.

Thank you Sandra. I appreciate that. I love the idea of squeezing in as much meaning as possible, and in this case, there’s crossover with poetry. I can also see a similar approach in your own games, where you’re tapping into deeper psychological themes. I have some Counselling education background, so the idea that one can use games as a tool to reflect upon one’s own place in the world and the universe is very appealing.
