This reminded me the game the Beginner's guide - except without narration. Well I'm not sure what the game means... but I wish I had a bed floating in a star field.
I was upset that I couldn't fall off the rock or jump on the bed. It also didn't make sense that I couldn't walk through the open spaces with doors next to them. The game had a nice atmosphere but I wasn't really sure what I was doing.
Fun atmospheric game. (or not...what do you call an atmospheric game with no atmosphere?)
I decided I had to enact some metaphor for modern life, so I spent most of it in the chair, staring blankly at a screen with the lights off.(I'm not sure what you call it, but I definitely breezed through it!)
I super hope the music was a recording of you being awesome on the piano ('cause if not, it sucked! Ha, get it. Sucked? Like a thing with no atmosphere. 'Cause it's in space?)
Finally, I died. Finally finally, I read my life's achievements, kind of like the world's loneliest eulogy. Alone, corpsified, in my sweet space bed, dulcimer piano notes sounding out my existence (only they weren't, on account of no atmosphere, you see.)
Thanks for a fun, thoughtful game that really showcases ~~the necessity of air~~
Felt very lonely at first. And at the end, with what felt like a mocking little list of what you've done during the game. It felt nihilistic. Something about how pointless and lonely life achievements are, leading up to your death. Death in this case wasn't inevitable, wasnt a some threat or danger, it was just something to get to once you've exhausted everything else, because it has to end somehow. Death as a last point on a checklist of pointless things you will have done, down there in the abyss!
Very nice atmosphere. I loved the sequence in the armchair with the accompanying music. Would have loved for the game to be longer, and I got a bit lost in the dark because I turned off the light. Other than that, a really nice effort.
Feel free to check out our game, E.(a)T., if you have a few moments :slight_smile:.
Well, that was quite a trippy experience. Felt like actually being alone in space - I got quite absorbed. The music was beautiful too - I see where you got the title from :-) It makes for a very relaxing experience sitting in the chair, hearing the piano music and just being alone. I enjoyed it a lot.
I liked the experience. Perfect mood and graphics. I didn't play until the end, though. The ambient sound and sound effects are nice. Chopin's music is so good it can be heard in the vacuum. :D
The game was stellar. These are the kind of games I like, the far-out artistic ones that bring the feeling of being alone where no one can hear you... r Chopin. The graphics (made by yourself, I assume), were heavenly, the choice of music was delightful (I just wanted to drink tea and watch the sun get smaller). An excellent game.
Amazing experience... I love Chopin! You created a very particular atmosphere, really great! It's also a very particular metaphor of life! Well done! :)
I don't even know what to say about this one. Well, besides the invisible walls, what the game wanted me to do seemed pretty obvious/intuitive, so good use of established patterns to suggest what's interactive. Also it looks very nice.

I climbed a mountain today.
It wasn't very high.
Ah well.
Armchairs. Records. Time. Mountains.
Lights.
Dreams.
Good things to fill a life with.
Good things to have done before you die...
