Amazing message.
Nice pixel graphics and really calming music, But i don't know how it fits into the SCALE theme. (Maybe comparing yourself to the clouds and the mountain)

Really cute and simple way to tell a story, would be better if I can see more about scale in the game.
This game spoke to me and made an impact on me. I think it is perfect as it is. I hope to make something like it one day. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
It's a very nice story -- a little trite -- but in the way it's told is so heartfelt. It's great how you used the computer to tell the tale. I'm a little less clear on how it matches the theme... I can kind of make a stretch to get there.
So moving and beautifully written. The story unfolded smoothly leaving me with a kind of emptiness, or filling. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
A very heartfelt story! 🙂
For all the profound melancholy you managed to add some lines that are kind of funny in their sadness: “Your boss gave you an above average performance review. Your salary will increase by 1.7% this year. The inflation rate is 3%.”
The pixel art was nicely done, and the gameplay was simple and intuitive - it did not get in the way of the story.
Very nice! Good job! 😄
Beautiful solid game! Existential sadness appeared while passing, heh
Loved everything about this game :)
Especially the music, art and the little guy walking on the art.
Super inspiring
