Absolutely one of my favorite games of the year. Resonance-per-minute ratio is off the charts! The soundscape beautifully sets the scene for the powerfully concise writing - beautiful stuff here
This hit a bit too close to home. I don't know why, like the game says so so little. The words are not really poetic and it's not really anything grand. But somehow you managed to explain the fear I have for becoming adult with three four something sentences. Kids have a tendency to take the world exactly for what it is, and just saying it without getting complicated. You did just that. Maybe even simplified it beyond that. But you just captured someones entire life in a matter of minutes in a way I have never actually seen before, and I feel like I'm in here too. I'm not sure I like it. I'm sure I needed to see it. Thanks.
I really enjoyed this! It's a simple and highly effective work of interactive story telling. It is moving, even if very short. Some of the writing is a little clumsy at times, but it works.
It hasn't happened in years that a game made me cry. The sound combined with the simple but at the same time content dense worlds brough back in my mind some personal stuff that I almost left behind me. Congrats, you should make it a full game.
This game, made me rethink about the meaning of life. Congrats, amazing storytelling, simple art, i can’t really describe just how amazing this game is.
I love the story of regretful and reflection. Good job Dev!!! :-D
But I don't know why the BGM wasn't playing while I was playing the game on my PC but it was playing while I am using my smartphone. Hmmm... Is it a bug? Here my 5 minutes+ gameplay. Enjoy~
Luckyly, I listened the BGM on my smartphone. I played the game twice on my PC and my Smartphone. The BGM was very relaxing. Oh... Maybe because I used Microsoft Edge as the browser so the BGM wasn's playing. Hahahaha :-D

Great story!
Simple and poetic game, almost cried while playing, good job man!
my eyes are a tiny bit wet.
I lost a friend a few weeks ago. I was just talking about whether I feel prepared to go see the tombstone. then I played this.
absolutely beautiful.
will we ever know what was in the urgent email?
Whatever it was, the main character probably isn't paid enough to care.
this was beautiful!
your relationship with the mountain and mom reminds me of how i feel about water; oceans and lakes. i cried going through the game

It is a full game... well that's my opinion anyway.
Ye u right. What I meant is expand the plot but maybe it would lose its power. I can agree with you
