The puzzles are easy and nice (only got slightly stuck at the arrows one), I really like how relaxing and cozy this game is. Truly a short, even though sadly way too short, little gem. The painting minigames, for some reason, are just very addictive. Visually, it looks amazing and I love the music. The mystery is great too, the only thing I didn't like was the story.. that's just my personal opinion because I'm sensitive to that kind of topic.. if you are also not okay with the whole "losing people" kinda thing (and I don't mean through death) then don't play it. I wish it had a beautiful ending.. that would have made it perfect for me, but instead I just got deeply sad yet again. I'll have to give it a 9/10 since it's short and too sad for me, other than that it's a great game and worth playing.
Кря! Пройшов ось цю чудову гру і що я можу сказати, я в ЗАХВАТІ! Мене дуже здивував фынал гри, я вважав, що буде трошки інакше, але це здивування було в гарний бік! Честно, раджу її всім, а сам хочу собі другу гру від цих же розробників. Але якщо тут про художників, то там про фотографів. Плюси гри: +Візуальні ефекти; +Сюжет +Головоломки +Сентиментальність +Введення в оману +Душа +Музика Мінуси гри: Біс вам, а не мінуси! Не знайшов! ПС: опис гри в стімі повністю розповідає що на вас чекає. ППС: Назва гри говорить сама за себе. Wow! I played this wonderful game and what can I say, I'm EXCITED! I was very surprised by the ending of the game, I thought it would be a little different, but this surprise was in a good way! Honestly, I recommend it to everyone, and I want a second game from the same developers. But if here it's about artists, then there it's about photographers. Pros of the game: +Visual effects; +Plot +Puzzles +Sentimentality +Misleading +Soul +Music Cons of the game: Damn you, not cons! I didn't find any! PS: the description of the game on Steam fully tells you what awaits you. PPS: The name of the game speaks for itself.
HERMOSO JUEGO!!, ¡Este juego es como un abrazo al corazon! el ambiente, la jugabilidad, diálogos, el diseño de los paisajes, el juego en si es super hermoso. Lo jugué todo el tiempo con una calidez interior. La historia me encanto aunque el final puede ser ya bien algo agridulce o conmovedora a algunos, yo en lo personal no lo esperaba, debieron haber quedado juntos! Pero bueno, quien este leyendo esto, no se arrepentirá de jugarlo, si tienes la oportunidad juégalo, es una abrazo muy cálido :).
short, puzzles were ok, story wasnt that interesting
Ein sympathisches kleines Animationsspiel. Die Story plätschert vor sich hin, die Animationen fügen sich sehr geschmeidig in das Gameplay ein, die Malerei ist gut umgesetzt. Man muss sich aber klar sein, dass es hier keine Kopfnüsse gibt, alles ist relativ einfach zu lösen und nichts fordert wirklich heraus. Obwohl die Figuren sympathisch sind, war ich mir am Ende nicht ganz sicher alles verstanden zu haben, da musste ich dann doch mal Google befragen wer jetzt eigentlich wer ist. Mit dem Epilog wurde das etwas klarer.
春花秋月何时了,往事知多少
