I really the UI and overall aesthetic. The ball mechanic is pretty neat too. I love the ability to launch something and then come back and pick it up. The story and the little grey-green heart made me feel invested to get this lil boy through the forest! Interacting with the world and picking up the collectables and getting a message to read was nice.
Edit: I came back to play the game because the first run I had to play on mute. ( I did not want to rate before hearing the sounds!) . And I have to say that I had fun playing. The mechanics of your parents helping you is so adorable . I ran back and forth to mom and dad to fight the enemies lol.
