Themes
"Peaceful" inspired me to make a casual and cozy game that could be enjoyed at the player's own pace without danger.

"Aaand It's Gone Forever" reminded me of death (not to be morbid), so I wanted to include that in the cozy theme.

Tools
Godot, Aseprite and Ableton Live.

Lessons
This was my first time making an opening cinematic and "serious" soundtrack for a game.

Lovely game! The music is very relaxing. :)

Ah, thank you so much! That was my first time trying to write a real piece of music, so I’m grateful for all the kind words about it! :)

Good peaceful game. Spent time can't be regretted but as always for such the good entry I wished that game would be longer.

Developer

Thank you for playing! And as criticism goes, that’s a good one to hear. I had to throw away a bunch of rooms I didn’t have time to finish, and the game would’ve been stronger with them in. So I agree with you, and thanks! :)

Great game! I love how everything is so well thought, how getting the new powers forces you on using them to go back, how each power up let's you do something new in the map and of course the cool intro.

Thank you so much! I’m not sure that trying to plan all that out in 14 days was smart, but I’m grateful for anyone who enjoys it! :D
