Use of the limitation
"Limited time" was more narratological than ludogical; the game is meant to make the player feel pressured by the (imagined) time limitation and thus unable to appreciate the scenery. This is an important part of the allegory.

Cute game! Very interesting mechanic, too! Well done :)
First game I have seen with voice acting it turned out great! I thought the use of limited time was really effecting giving the feeling that if I don't go fast enough I won't be able to see my friend!
Very cute and enjoyable to play!
Well done!!!
Thanksies, loved your game too! I'm glad you enjoyed my game. I'm just wondering, what was your interpretation of the allegory?
Find friends closer to where you live. :P
But for real I guess I saw it as an 'enjoy the moment' kinda thing, don't rush to get things done. Think that was reflected in the gameplay too as I probably wasted more time rushing to make jumps quickly than when I was taking things more slowly, especially at the start.
Yeah, while testing, I was thinking about how rushing it as a beginner would make you splash haha
Great presentation and a simple but effective story.
awww, glad you liked it. if I may, what was your version of the allegory?
