Hi there, i wanted to add some gameplay for every choice you made, but i don't have time :( (I was supposed to participate the compo, but i loose time with crappy tutos)

So I try to make something with mood.

Arrow Keys + Space to interact

I like the mood of the game. Contemplative.

Took me a bit to figure out the controls; I think it's just that they weren't immediately responsive.

Short and sweet. Nice pixel art and fitting music. Would have been nice to have some gameplay, but I think it works pretty well as short interactive "picture book" of sorts.

The setting is serene and makes me want to take a leisurely scroll in the game. Good job. Dialog/narrative needs to be tightened up a bit.

I like this a lot. Excellent pixel art. Simple, effective gameplay. A weird creature standing around at the end. Everything was great; I'm just wishing for more.

Well, the gameplay was a little rigid. But it was cool! Liked the mood :)

Wow, I realize there wasn't a ton of gameplay but I really loved what I saw! The art was amazing and the idea was clutch and the mood was great.

I shall look forward to future entries from you :)

WOAH guy, this game is absolutely AWESOME. Well, yeah, that's more an interactive story than a game, but the mood is so great! I will gladly play it again with other choices. Also, music fit the game perfectly, and grapics are very good. I love your interpretation of the theme.

I really loved the mood, graphics and music! With other alternatives it would become an awesome game!! Great job!

If you have time , rate my game too! :) I would really appreciate it! :D

nice graphics, gameplay was hard to figure out, and maybe a little buggy

Good idea for a game, but i don't understand what to do when the girl learns, discovers and... what should I do and what is the aim ?

Great sound design and visuals. I loved the little details like hearing the wind and the bugs (crickets?). How the dress and the captain's smoke blows in the wind. The ocean stained wood. Solid game!

Pretty story :)
One life, one chance, no regrets ! ;-)

PS. I really want to see timelapse from making this game :)

excellent mood, would you consider doing a post-jam? I'd love to play the finished version, if unfinished is so beautiful and sad.

Nice graphics, nice mood, nice audio, but I don't like this game. It's more like a story told to you instead of that you decide your story. A bit more content would be nice

yes, I rate this high on "mood" ;)
I like the graphics and smooth piano music.
the game itself could be fleshed out some more, but good work overall!

Nice job, good music and graphics, good message as well :)

Very moody, but also very boring

Strange game, nice concepts, no sounds :/ not bad at all. Good Job

Had some problems with interacting (pressing space didn't always work) but apart from that it worked nicely.

Solid story, not much of a game as it is though. Definitely moody ;).

Nice mood in this game. The graphics, music and texts work nicely together.
I wish there were more choices and see more of the outcomes but it's still a nice experience.

I would have played it more but the adds on kongregate were really long!

Thank you all for your feedbacks !!
@OnlySlightly For the wind and the bugs it’s was a recording of this summer and i found that it’s fit perfectly with this game :D (and yes crickets :) )
@psc1997 Sorry i don’t have any timelapse ;)
@kibertaod Maybe one day, but this will be a kind of remake for something more subtle (and with more gameplay, content and no bugs)
