Très cool, juste dommage que le jeux ne dure pas plus longtemps.
Beautiful work of art from very talented people. Thank you, guys! Don't stop creating.
Flot spil med en god historie og musik.
It was nice! While it can be janky sometimes, I never got stuck on a puzzle but still felt like there was something to do, even when it was pretty basic. I liked that the gameplay evolves during the game, especially towards then end!
Un juego de plataformas a lo Inside (incluso gráficamente muy parecido), bastante sencillas pero entretenidas. El componente emocional del juego esta bien y te dejara una gran sensación.
Remek játék, szép a grafikája, zseniális a történet, jó az írányíthatóság, eddig nálam ez év egyik legnagyobb meglepetése.
great game i love the story and the gameplay
Quick simple side scroller. No dialogue yet a beautiful story.
Truly a wonderful game. Short and heartfelt with a beautiful story. Definitely teared up a bit ngl
Ist ein schönes spiel. Auch für Leute die keine Ultra Profites sind kann man es in ca. 5 Stunden durchspielen. das einzige was mich gestört hat war der 3 letzte abschnitt wo man durch das Wasser laufen musste und genau dem Weg folgen musste. Es gab so viele Abzweigungen das ich diesen abschnitt nicht kapiert habe und froh war das es YouTube Videos gab um den weg nachzuschauen. Noch ein weiterer Punkte den ich entweder nicht richtig verstanden hatte oder das spiel nicht erklärt. Beim Hochklettern an Leitern muss man X drücken, wenn man aber von einer Plattform zur anderen Springt und sich festhalten muss muss man A drücken. Warum zwei unterschiedliche Tasten? Alles in allem eine tolle Story & ich bin froh das wir unseren Freund nochmal getroffen haben, da ich zwischenzeitlich dachte wir hätten ihn verloren. Würde den spiel 4 von 5 Sternen geben aufgrund der Atmosphäre und Story, leider war ich manchmal verwirrt was man machen muss und bin nicht zu 100% mit der Steuerung klar gekommen, daher 1 Stern Abzug. Ich würde aber auf einen Sale warten, da ich 3 Stunden für Profis und 5 Stunden für Laien zu teuer finde mit 20€. Für 10 - 15€ ist es ein gutes Spiel mit dem man spaß hat
