Bittersweet story beautifully presented :)

Developer(+1)

Whooa thanks a lot for the feedback,  it's heartwarming :)

Relaxing, bit hard to know when it's over. Being able to revisit cards and maybe a little more priming on what the experience is (kinda like a museum) would be cool

Did you see the "The End" dialog ? (It's super hard to imagine how players interacts with the game...) Thanks for the feedback :)

Submitted

Bit depressing, but still good.

Developer

For sure it's a bit depressing. At the end it's still a love message. Glad you like it :D

didnt really under stand how the game worked but it was calming and cool looking

Developer

In terms of implementation (the way of the code) ? Or the purpose ? Thanks for the feedback !

Submitted

A cute narrative, but minimal gameplay. Any suggestions I might have to improve it would change it to something that's fundamentally not what you were trying to make, though, so I have a lot less to say than usual

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks a lot for the feedback ! I am a bit curious about your idea that completly change the game, if you want to tell me more!? :3

It would be neat if you were exploring the area looking for the photos, maybe something like What Remains of Edith Finch, if you've ever played that game. It doesn't have to be 3D like that, but it would be neat if you could walk around, seeing your dad's old house, wondering why certain things are the way they are there, and then finding these photos which have the dialogue attached and answer those questions.

Developer

Indeed it will be totally cool. I hesitate for the last scene where you see your mum outside. I also have the idea to add more sound design when you grab the photo (for ex: sound of a fire for the photo of the night gathering with beers).
