This was cool! I appreciated the tone, the atmosphere, the selection of poems/songs, and the scavenger hunt!
I found myself wishing that I could invert the mouse Y axis and adjust mouse sensitivity, but other than that, had an enjoyable time playing. I found three notes, and I found myself wondering whether there might be more - one of my stream viewers suggested while I was playing that the choice of Robert Frost poem for the final note might indicate multiple exclusive paths through the game, and that feels evocative whether multiple paths through the game exist or not.
Thanks for sharing your post-jam reflections, and thanks for doing a Linux build!
Nice work! The first note being placed on top is pretty cool, and them all having poems was pretty neat too! The music is kind of off though, and was pretty distracting from reading (I got six hours of sleep last night so that makes it even worse for me) but I got through it. Also, nice particleessssseee
I really like the vibe of this, the art style is great and helps underscore the lowkey feel of the whole experience. Especially the snow effect! That bit of movement really made the whole thing come to life! Nicely done!
I liked this idea of being led around by clues and poetry. It reminds me of Myst and Dear Esther in a way, and with a pretty art-style. Great submission!

Thanks! Heck I gotta play Myst and Dear Esther sometime. I worried the clues would be too on-the-nose for people but I’m glad you saw it as an upside.
