How does your game fit the theme?
Hindsight is about zooming out and finally having enough information to see the whole story. I see this as related to the idea of scaling up or scaling back.

Woah, I really like this! I love multimedia artworks and interactive poetry, and this work seemed really personal while still maintaining a lighthearted tone. Something about the tone and playfully edited photography reminded me of the online web story "What Football Will Look Like In The Future" at least tangentially lol, it's a piece of fiction but I think you might enjoy the format!

ahhh thank you so much for the kind words! I will definitely check out the Web Story - it sounds right up my alley :)

Your voiceover was very clean and I enjoyed hearing it, even if it was a little frustrating trying to figure out where to click. Well done on submitting!

This is a super creative idea even though I'm super lost. The narration is amazing and I feel like there is a lot of lore and the art + pictures are well done. Great job :D (P.S. What does spacebar do?)

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for playing! Spacebar doesn't do anything - why do you ask? haha
Edit: also if you're lost feel free to check the Playthrough video linked on the page to see where to go next :)
