I usually avoid commenting, but I wanted to affirm how beautiful and saddening this piece is. What a thing you've managed to relay with such little words, how special special

It’s a fairly short visual novel, but the emotional weight it tries to convey is huge. I love the art style (especially the ghost), and the way distortion is added when she starts repeating that she loves her. Good job ^^

(+3)

wow.. that was beautiful and depressing... sad i was reminded of someone i know

Impresionante, mis respetos a quien creo esta increíble obra, trata muchos temas que son "cotidianos" ya y además tiene una gran profundidad, simplemente impresionanteante

日本語があるの嬉しすぎる

Warning, the comment from "Updates (Official Dev)" is linking to something malicious! Please don't click on that link!

i didn't think this game would bring me to tears.

Absolutely beautiful game and I just love how heavy the content is juxtaposed with the shortness of the VN and the seemingly innocent and whimsy art style (Sheesh I sound like an english teacher) but I just love the interface and the placement of "I love yous" at the end--so wonderfully and tragically emotional. bsp;

(+3)

you sound like an English teacher because you are doing literary analysis and actual thinking about the art you consume. That's a good thing not a bad thing.

(+2)

short game but i loved it i have never been sad from a game before until now i hope she's in heaven

(+3)

doomed yuri(?),just how i like it

(+4)

I- ow. ouch. I could write paragraphs on how amazing it is, how artistically simplistic the recalled moments are, how haunting the story is. But there is some beauty that shouldn't be chained by words, and this melancholy is among them.

(+3)

yeah, its amazing

(+2)

absolutely beautiful game, don't know exactly to word it but it hit me in the gut even when i was expecting it. one of the very few games ive cried to, very good.

(+2)

i don't know how to say something that hasn't been said before, but to be a cynical ass, this is the kind of story i come into a little jaded because i know its gonna be sad. so i get a little guarded. i go oh, i know how it goes, we've all been there-- the crayons that we passed to each other. idk why thats the thing that got me. after that line i was anxious as hell because i knew what was coming and didn't want it to happen. the transforming tracks were superb and the final sequence, yeah, i dunno guys, i think you know what you're doing i think you guys know how to communicate emotions well i think you know how to make a damn good game even if its over in a blink. the overwhelming feeling of i love you and the need to send it to somebody . yeah yeah yeah okay theres a lump in my throat. very well made.

(+3)

apart from the game itself, are you alright dude?

(+1)

remind me of omori suicide scene...damn, so sad

(+4)

wow.

that writing was so good. of course the ending hits hard. but there were so many little notes on the way that were just brilliant observations put into prose. this little mention of their view when seeing other girls …;…

i loved the art, and i’m delighted by the interface. i really like the way you positioned the text, and how the navigation buttons just sit atop the railing. the settings menu was really cool: reduced, well readable, and fitting so well with the vibe.gs menu was really cool: reduced, well readable, and fitting so well with the vibe.

thanks for creating and sharing this.
