How does your game fit the theme?
An Elder's Quiet Day perfectly embodies "the calm before the storm" by contrasting the peaceful routine of a clockmaker's day with sudden, intense flashbacks of his traumatic past.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I made all the code, all the art and music myself from scratch.
I used some CC0 sounds from free sound for sound effects.

A lovely short story told in only two scenes
"You never know what the other person might be going through..."
Quite short, but a with a powerful message. Thank you for this game.
Really good artstyle and nice message at the end. Congrats!
Beautiful game, both in art and in idea
Thank you!
That's a way to send a message, didn't expect that! Very touching theme implementation.
Good work!
Thanks a lot Enweave!
I was intrigued by the description you gave because I also went for an emotional turmoil as the storm. I really like the concept and I wish there were more available clocks to made to unravel more of the story behind of the character. Keep up the good work! You can check out my game as well if you like story-based, puzzle games :)
Thank you! Your game is beautiful but I'm too dumb for it! :)
I was sure not expecting that! That was a real storm!
Thanks Austin! :)
the music is relaxing, and art work is pretty good. In the game you can feel the story behind the clockmaker.
Thank you!
