"You only get one Hope."

The Last Promise is a 2D side-scroller story with some inspiration from masterpieces like Limbo, Closure or Dear Esther. Done by Team KwaKwa, composed of three artists in Lyon, France, and two programmers (one of whom musician) in Lausanne, Switzerland. It was our first jam, please enjoy the experience! :)

The skylines and backgrounds are very good, and the animation is okay but could be a bit better (especially walking)

As should be expected of having 3 artists on board, the graphics are gorgeous, setting a very nice mood.

Story was intriguing and DAMN those graphics! Not to mention the mood, the way the text was displayed...it's amazing! Sure, all you do is walk, but when everything is like THAT it's all you need to do. Excellent!

Atmospheric is the word that springs to mind, and the graphics were astounding! Honestly I didn't care too much for the story as it was going quite slow, but the overall mood that it provided made for a better experience. :)

Really interesting! I think it was a tad slow, but the game looks amazing, has an interesting narrative, and solid audio. Great job!

A truly beautiful game. Atmospheric and pleasing to the eye. :) The walk speed was a bit too slow for me, I'm guessing it was lag because the man did walk a bit faster at some points. But still a really great experience. :)

Very immersive game, but maybe a little too much slow...

It's a grate experience. I really like the mood and the graphics. But I felt it could do with more interaction.

Like the grapihcs and the sound. A bit short and it would have been nice with some puzzles or some choice.

The mood... Oh man, this atmosphere was great -- But I was really close to quitting with how long it was taking, though I understand why you did that. Nice game.

Amazing artwork for a weekends work. Love the mood and music.
The text confused me a little at the start - I thought it was an intro and wasn't sure if I could skip it, but then I began walking.
