Great game, streamed it, my feedback is my commentary

Good game. Nice story and the music was a great fit. The star sections were a nice break in-between dialog. 

Just to give some feedback, I didn't see how the stars fit into the story ? Does it represent the afterlife? Or maybe the character making connections with his dad? But then why so many when their relationship is one-on-one?  The link between the stars imagery and the main story seems tenuous to me. But maybe I just didn't see it.

That gave me Goosebumps.

That made me cry. The music fit so well to the game and everything is so well-down! The truth is when I saw the title I didn't waiting much, but this made me feel lucky!

Heavy stuff - but very well told. I liked the spacing of the story sequences with the connecting of the stars. This is the only visual novel I've seen in this jam and I really enjoyed it.

This was beautifully crafted!

The title is a bit of a red herring.

I was expecting meme game, didn't expect feel game. The mechanic is simple but the story is engaging enough to keep me going till the end. Hopefully your game will help those who are suffering from some similar hardships.
