Amazing, the story is so well thought out! I so wish there was a narrative category.

Nice - like the way the story is told :)

Very nice way to tell the story! Even though it's not quite a game, it was enjoyable story.

Anything with input from a user is a game. :P

It was beautiful thank you

Very nice, i like the simplicity of it!

Awesome story, I really liked the theme of being unable to turn back, but some of the text didn't fit on the screen all at once so that kinda ruined parts of it. I liked the graphics a lot.

really nice graphics and method of storytelling! i don't really buy the story, though. why did he keep narrating like a kid even when he was an adult? i guess that part didn't work for me.

Awesome entry! I like this form of narrative, it's like a graphic novel. Try to find out how to deploy it on other platforms, please!

My only irk was that you kept saying "alot" instead of "a lot", but other than that it was cool. It'd be nice if all the text fit on the screen, so you didn't have to sort of.. store all the strings of information in your head and put them together when you could see the end of the sentences.

But yeah, graphically very nice, a really interesting idea, niec one.

Wow, that was f'd up...wow. Very unique game. I think I cried inside.

brotherst 2012-12-22 02:24

oooo. That was good. I really liked the ending.

rabbits 2012-12-24 21:25

Now im sad...Nice work creating such a ominous mood...

Not much of a game here so it has to hang together on story and art -- I thought the story was good, though maybe a bit hard to believe that the character didn't understand graduation hats, but understood killin' for money to buy a hat? Wouldn't he just steal a hat from a store? Still, I had a good time and the art was great.

Very, very well done. I thoroughly enjoyed the narrative as well as the method in which it unfolded. At each step I wanted to be able to do something other than let James ruin his life even more... but alas, it is not my place to make such choices. I could have closed the window, but I didn't. I decided to let James' choices unfold. The poor devil.

I hope to see more great things like this in the future! :)

jackspinoza 2012-12-31 19:02

My favourite game. Exactly the kind of mood I love. It has some very strong themes here too; that punitive systems are blind, that choices have repercussions and that we can't choose what we choose to choose. I got a lot from this game. I liked it how the player couldn't read everything at times. bla bla bla, thanks very much.

Definitely an interactive art, well thought out. Hats off to you! :P
