omg this is such a nice game/story
i've been going through similar things, and i really like how at the start the friend seems very nice and caring, but very quickly their sentences reminded me of abuse (first picked it up from the barista incident actually)
pls make more of these! (ecotone is nice too though)
I'm glad you appreciate it; this story is pretty special to me even though it's just a short game.
beautiful!.. such a powerful message!
This game...It's so good! The art is super cool! I love it! The message (even if Nightwell Games didn't mean to have one) is inspirational! Thank you for making this!
Oh, it definitely has an intentional message! Thanks for playing.
I loved the hand-drawn backgrounds on each piece. The "painted picture" is a good symbol of this imaginary world. The ending was also very nice. *meow*
Thanks so much, I put a lot of work into the art so I'm glad you appreciated it! *meow*
Absolutely loved this little game - such a beautiful and poetic experience with a core theme of 'freedom'. I personally felt it was spot-on to my relationship with myself & anxiety. It has an ambiguity that makes it able to appeal to anyone, and for that, it's so impactful as a tool to tell stories (any stories) that fit its dynamic. Love this well done & well loved production!
It's a cool and good looking game!
I really really loved it. I loved how you incorporated the theme and how you got the message across. The dialogue writing was punchy, beautiful, powerful. I felt like someone was talking to me. ADORE the art and the ending. The sentence was powerful. Loved itt!
is there a way to skip dialogues
Not currently.
I couldn't figure out what to do, how do I paint in the cave?
Use the brush on the paints, and then use it on the paper!
wow, that was very interesting. very good game :D
