Hmm, people keep on talking about the music but I don't hear any, except for a single repeating note that starts halfway through. I wonder if that's a bug with Bitsy on Firefox or something. Still, even with that, this was absolutely amazing.
I mean, this looks good. Everybody can see that. And the music is so good, it works so well. But it's so much more than that. It captures grief in a way that's hard to express, that feeling of missing and longing and you have to keep going on because life won't stop. It's beautiful, and it made me cry. Thank you.
Very excited for this... but I'm not sure how to start it. When I open the game, I get the title box and music, but I can't figure out what to do next.
you might need to click inside the game screen to “activate” the keyboard! and then just use arrow keys or wasd to start the game and move and stuff! i’ll actually add this instruction in the description, thanks for bringing it up! hope you enjoy the game.
this got me GOOD bruh i was crying by the end of it, this is so personal and yet it struck a chord with me deeply in a way i wasn't expecting. brilliant job.
