holy shit, this game is amazing. The areas were so pretty and beautiful in so many ways I can't even explain, and they were weirdly somewhat comforting (?)😭. I grew attached to almost every character I came across. I was so sad when I had to leave, in chapter 1, I wanted to see the witch girl and the mask girl's romance develop so bad because they seemed so genuinely cute together, the girl by the bench felt somewhat comforting to me too and I was so upset since I had to leave her too. In chapter 2, I wonder if those girls by the benches on the stairs case thingy, I wonder if their relationship ever improved, and if they communicated their feelings about wanting space and wanting to be paid attention to, hope they find a balance in their relationship (or they just died in the complex falling apart lmao). Wonder if that smoking girl is just gonna smoke for the rest of her life or she actually found someone to give her the warmth she desperately desires for. I think chapter 3 REALLY got me attached to the characters. I did everything within the game to like boost the mood of the painter dude. I wanted to just tell him so badly that he shouldn't compare himself to other artists and that people out in the world have appreciated his art (would've killed to see his painting of us ngl). The scene with Hope, the angel as our mc (i don't really know if there's a confirmed name for them) just sitting down and listening to Copper was so heart-warming I literally almost cried because it was such a beautiful scene😭. I don't know why but I was really attached to Ms. Fausset. She was like, kind of a mother figure ngl. I mean like but she was a mother so what am I yapping about💀. And when I had to leave her, I literally said goodbye to her last and was on the verge of crying when I stepped through that door. Istg my mommy issues are really something for me to get attached to a fictional character💀😭🙏. I don't know if I'm interpreting it wrong but like, maybe because of my poor memory but they said something about the cycle repeating over and over again. I don't know but I interpreted it as generational trauma. Don't know if that was intended though.
This game is so beautifully written. The puzzles were fun to solve. The art was just wonderful and fit the aesthetic of it. I would erase my memories just to replay this game to feel the same amount of amazement I felt the first time playing. Everyone who worked on this game did an amazing job. (sorry for like yapping for an entire paragraph, i don't know how to do proper like reviews but I really do want to let you know you made a beautiful game and that I'm thankful for it 😭)
btw i love your art, wish i could eat it. will be playing your other games too
trying to write this behind the wall of tears from going back and completing the best ending. this is one of the best games i have ever played, you should be extreamly proud of yourself for making it. The concepts were executed wonderfully and the characters are so real and likeable i want to be friends with them. you have such a creative mind and i loved the art and music. My only critisism is that full screen didn't seem to be working, otherwise i adored every other aspect and im interested in anything else you might mak e in the future <3 <3 <3
