Stumbling upon meaning in an old town abandoned to its fate

the live link isn't working.
apart from that, this game is quite interesting, I need to test it longer when I have time

[edit]Now it is working and it's a really cool experience ! I don't know how you got this idea and how you realize it but it is so innovating

Like the other people here have mentioned, the live version isn't working. I tested the jam version, and it seems interesting, I really like the visual style, but I felt like I was missing the "gameplay" part of it, and the story seemed all over the place. I also noticed the screen would shake a bit when hovering over some words at the start, and I wasn't sure if that was intentional or not, but the effect as is was not great to look at or read. Overall an interesting tech demo, but not a very *fun* game.

Really interesting. This feels like those old school Encarta multimedia experiences. Really dig it.

The live link should be working now, sorry guys (it's still the same game though)

I loved this! I don't think I got to the bottom of the mystery (although I know what someone "believed" to be true), but the discovery of the mechanics was really satisfying and totally drew me in. Reminds me (in excellent ways) of "Her Story" by Sam Barlow, "Device 6" by Simogo, and "Nested" by Orteil.

It's a challenging, confusing, but clever piece of hypertext. I loved the mechanics of discovery - wanted to say this reminds me of Her Story, but the previous commenter beat me to it :)

Woah, super neat! The story i wrote in the end was incoherent, but i loved the way you transform a word into a sentence into a story. cool idea!

Interesting way of generating a story. I love narrative games and everything that plays with text in general
. Well done!

This was a really cool idea! I like how you used the photos in the game. Very nice work!

Really cool idea. Reminded me of her story and house of leave. Thanks for bringing it by the stream!

Great concept. Initially I was a little lost and I didn't realize that there was a progress bar at the top :S But after a while discovering the mechanics and trying to fit the story well, I had a good time. Very polished design. My congrats! Good job :D

What a beautiful way to tell a sad story. Well done! This is one of my favorites so far.

Cool concept. Was a bit confused at first but then it was fun. some audio or sound effects would be great for the game :)

Amazing concept, one of my faves I think. A clever idea for a gameplay and an interesting story. Me likes.

Totally unique, totally beautiful, totally funny and totally amazing. This is one of the best entry for this jam and a great answer to the theme. Love love !

Cool!! love the Graphics! love the story! love this way of telling stories! Great job!
Really love thie game!! I will collect it!

so cool.the power of words are limitless.

Very interesting concept. At the end I got a really nice piece of art. It's a different approach of the theme, but I liked a lot. Good job!

Congrats on #14 in Innovation!
