Genuinely a gorgeous atmosphere and game. The art you made for it amplifies the feelings so much, it greatly accompanies what you've made. The coloring and texture of it all really captures the hectic and dismay that you put into the stories!!
I seriously loved every moment of the game. The way you portrayed the different characters and themes that led into one convergent point or theme was amazing. The different stories (such as the cult with the pigs or Rye's wish to leave) contrasted really well and gave an exceptional glimpse into the world. It was really cool to see how it all connected and meshed towards the end. I can't state enough how much the art and writing go together, they 100% capture the feelings of one another. I wish I could write more, but I seriously enjoyed the game!!! I can't wait to play your other game or see what else you have in store.
Thank you so much for playing!! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
Be on the lookout because I have more things in store and am excited to talk about them in the (very) near future!
Great atmosphere, cool backgrounds, gret mood and easy to get hooked on. Love it!
Thank you!!
