This is so heart warming. The art style is mind blowing.
thank you so much!
I'm blown away by the art style! Was all that done digitally?
Sonya is very cute... ♥
Yes, it was done digitaly, though watercolours I made on paper and scaned
It's beautiful, I liked the aesthetics.
Waiting for your next game.
This is such an amazing beautiful game! Amazing art, music and story! This is an incredible creation!
Absolutely adore the art! And it's a very wholesome story as well. Only "critique" would just be to increase the scroll speed a bit and give a better indication of a panel being complete at certain points.
Just wow! Very well executed!
More than awesome art!! I just feel that the interaction needs some feedback to get the viewer participating in the story, rather than just watching.
And again, AWESOME ART, Love it.
thank you so much!
So Impressed with amount & quality of the art. Each frame has amazing composition & they all blend so well together. The consistency of the art takes this game above a jam submission. Constellation matching was my favorite bit, I could play that all day.
thank you so much for these kind words!
What a great story. I loved the artwork and the music fits the game perfectly.
I think it would have been nice to go back (like, move the camera up) a bit faster, to see again certain parts that I really liked. But it was a great experience anyway.
thank you!
well, I was considering making camera flow faster, but i feel it would break the mood
I agree. It would have been nice more speed to revisit some of your illustrations, but I was going down, it felt just nice as it was.
What a great story. I loved the artwork and the music fits the game perfectly.

I love it. it was amazing! Great Story and Art!!
thank you! i am happy to hear!
Very impressed with the artwork. It must´ve taken such a long time. The audio fits the narrative.
Sadly, we didn't quite catch the gameplay and were confused.
thank you!
oh, that's too sad, i tried to make it as simple as possible - you move camera with up/down and you click on picture to open the next one or solve a puzzle to open next picture
After giving it another try we figured it out. Such a beautiful game. I think some sort of replying sound was missing, so we would have known that were clicking something that belongs to the puzzle etc. But as already mentioned, very beautiful and relaxing game!
yes, I was already thinking about it, but didn't have time
Very relaxing music combined with beautiful art. Great job!
so beautiful!
Beautiful story, the art and music are simply amazing.
Amazing game! Very fun to play and very relaxing.
Very beautiful! Only problem I sometimes had was that some pictures didn't load when it was in the middle of my screen even though I finished the interactions on the previous screen. Also a small nitpick is that the text goes outside the screen when you don't play on fullscreen at the screen after you solve the star puzzle. But besides that I really enjoyed it, the story and art is very adorable <3
thanks you!
yes, unfortunatly it happends that borders are cutted:((
you had this problem with the pad with key and open door? you should click on open door to load next one, i felt it is more logical
Actually yes it was during that part, maybe you could add an indicator that you should open it? The rest works great though ;o
i see, sorry that it was confusing
Like i said before: Love it! beautiful game, i realy like the style of bed time story. It seems innovative.
I loved the visuals, the hand drawn style is amazing! Great job.
thank you!
Beautiful game. Well done on the incredible amount of artwork!
so nice game! like a fresh breath!
