Loved it! Great narrative and amazing atmosphere! The visuals were beautiful too. Solid entry!

Very pretty and calming atmosphere! I'd love to see this game/ game world expanded upon as I felt like it was a little short, but other than that this game is stunning and audio fits it perfectly, great job!

Great job! I liked the atmosphere and the dialogue reminded me a lot of Night in the Woods. I liked the sound of the platforms when you land on them.  This was a nice, relaxing submission!

This game is visually stunning. The story is short, and stopped before I thought it would, but it can very well be expanded on. There is not much gameplay to it, which made it a bit of a walking simulator with dialogue in between.

As a story-based game, it ended too quickly and dialogue felt a bit out of place, but you did nice job on creating the atmosphere and graphics :)

For something so serene and beautiful, the dialogue didn't hold back! For me it was a little bit disorienting, shocking even, kinda breaking the atmosphere where you so clearly did well on. But maybe it will play a great part in its story, just couldn't tell from its current state because it felt like it ended too quickly. Anyways, with the visuals alone, I wanted to play this game. The sfx was nice, especially the platform collision sounds. The music fits perfectly with the atmosphere, creating that immersive feeling.

Really cute. Great art interesting story. I loved the birds say "shit" for some reason that made my day. The platforming could use some work but it's a good start. Great work! Keep it up!

I'm sorry to say this, best this wasn't very good. Visuals were great and so was the music, but the level design was pretty bad and the game itself is very short. There's also a wall jump bug that makes it so the game has zero difficulty

Very nice! Loved the visuals and also the conversation! Find my review video below:

A great game with amazing music, but it was a little too short...
One of the most stunning entries I have seen for this jam

Submitted(+1)

5 stars, enough said.

I especially liked the music!

Submitted(+1)

I was not expecting that tone, but I love a little comical dissonance. Delightful art and music. Funny writing. The one staircase of disappearing platforms where the last one is moving was a bit annoying to figure out timing on, but other than that I enjoyed the simply gameplay to complement the narrative. I really enjoyed this one. Good job.

This was a very calming, nostalgic game, a short story I enjoyed from start to finish, the little platforming sections added a lot, the dialogues were very cool and funny, it reminded me of Night in the Woods, I even think the dialogues visual style is the same, great work :)

Nice game i played it on stream, and can maybe sent a clip from that to you. There is not really much gameplay on this game but i like story and visuals on it very much

Submitted(+2)

Cool visuals and music. I just feel a disconnection between the story told by word and the story told by mechanics. I mean, the player does not experience the story mechanically, mechanically the game remains the same throughout the whole experience.
