The polish on this game is amazing, the music and effects make it seem like a much more developed project. The mechanic was pretty simple but it drove a point home, especially about how you couldn't walk backwards.

If you rate other games and leave feedback then this game will be more visible, you need twenty ratings to qualify. Great game and good luck!

This is a truly beautiful experience! It actually moved me and I welled up a bit. Truly great stuff here. The only thing I think needs adjusting is that you can out run the camera. Seriously good work you have a true piece of art here.

Really cool game here. Looks very pleasing and the writing along with the music really set a powerful mood. Was it fun? No, not to me BUT that is not a negative thing in this case. The game had a good feel and was a great work of simulator art. Very nice work, I enjoyed it.

Great polished game! After dying I wish it was quicker to skip the text. Also it was a bit annoying if you missed an item with just a few pixels and the guy refuses to go back.

Great take on the theme.

Was the music created by Clement during the competion? Otherwise I think you must opt-out from Audio.

Great art style and soo moody. Fitting music. Great use of lighting/smoke. Cool text animations.
Manages to be minimalistic, but still look interesting.

Also fits the theme quite well.

Only feedback I have is that the itch.io site background was a bit bright and I couldn't find a way to fullscreen, which is sad because it's so moody and beautiful and I wanted to view it without distractions.

It was so pretty! And the music is super dreamy. Lovely repeating theme, changing harmony, chello, flutes. Don't get me wrong, the art in the game is fantastic and the game play is amazing. But I really wish I could give 6 stars for music.

Fantastic job on...everything! Simple, highly polished, beautiful visually and audibly. I enjoyed attempting to reach the dream, unfortunately we all know how difficult it is to get the balance right :p
