The narrative is awesome, the intro is super good, it's just a really good game in general. I like the feeling of going through the different pathways to find the right connection, and it's just long enough to leave an impression without overstaying its welcome. Great job.

Nice puzzle game with an introspective narrative . I really liked using sound to find my way through, its a fantastic idea!

Fantastic entry! Loved this game and take on the task. I was a little confused at the second screen, but I was rushing, when I took a moment to try and navigate a path and pay attention to all the feedback you were giving through the audio and lighting ... it put me in a zen-like state as I unlocked more and more of the story. An absolute blast. Great work.

Minor fix for later, on this challenge I was able to make it to the end point without it triggering the end. I went back and around to get it to progress after taking this screenshot.


Love this game. Great work!

Thanks for playing! It's an intentional exploit, but I think I need to make the narrative significance of thinking you're done when you're not more apparent. I'm glad I could give you some zen though :)

Is it even allowed to do this cool games? Really nothing to say. My whole family started playing this :D.

I really enjoyed playing your game. It's a simple idea that works really well. Having the screen fade and the music go quieter is a really good effect for defining the boundaries. It's also good having the text pop up as you get closer to making the connection and I like what you wrote.
