Thank you for your kind comment! I'm really glad you enjoyed our game and that it made you feel something! We all worked super hard on it.
We were definitely trying to aim for a very realistic relationship - which was a fun juxtaposition to the fact that our characters were bears. 🐻
To your comment about the female friend being obligated to fix the relationship - I'm sorry it came off that way!! We were just trying to think of a story moment that would cause Salmon to have a sudden revelation, and we thought a letter from Bumble would be a sweet way to kickstart Salmon's revelation - not the thing that ultimately fixed everything. Bumble was never intended to be the "fixer", the idea was that Salmon realized he was being a bad friend. I hope that didn't taint your experience of the game too much! I appreciate you letting us know.
Oh and yeah. 😅 Volume mixing was def something we needed to do but ran out of time for.
