I have to say that this was an excellent game. Kind of long, but worth it. The style, mood, and simple story were really awesome. And the theme was, if not overtly, present.

wonderful idea,and amazing amibent... day and night、breath and muse...home-a snug nest with new friend; everywhere let me fancy and every pixel all soliciting idea.
day pass with each passing day
a great game which give peace/revery to me.
love it.♡
I like the artistic conception of the game, it is the similar experience with the iOS game ”Mountain“, but I still prefer the human( I like the aged pixel), the dog ,the tree, life is always a tough.
that is great
the minimalistic design is great!
The little animation details are cool :)
目前已经成老大爷了。像素画面和动画很专业，游戏体验就是左右行走吗？
Very clever little game, themed very well
I come into house and hero starts to switch light on and off! No UBOA yet...
Deep bro
This has a great ambience.
Interesting, if a bit long. I love the dog :D
very beautiful. loved the simplicity.
Best ppart is the dog. I like the concepto and the grafic. Also the smart little behaviur of dog and plants are really good. But maybe should be mor interaction. It look like more as a movie. But great idea. Nice
I didn't play long for I was in a rush but I loved the concept a lot.
Very nice game, it has a great mood, just to slow for me, but that is just my personal preference.
Loved it! Oh and the simple yet incredible artwork! Really enjoyed it!
Weird experience. Looks great but it is really slow, so not for everybody. Interesting but I wish there was more to do. I guess I'm not a patient enough guy ;)
Very interesting and unique game! It's really valuable when someone tries something this different, the experience was really singular. The calm and relaxed mood is nice, as well as the graphics which are really simple yet very consistent! Congratulations on this one!
I liked the simplicity and animations.Great idea, but a bit too slow and lack of interaction distracted from the mood.
This is something else, I love it so much. My favourite entry so far! :D
This really is a lovely entry.
Nice idea, but I am pretty sure the meaning would have transpired just as fine in half the time. Right now, despite the warnings, it still feels a bit like a waiting game. Enough to leave me guess the end while waiting, and that is, in my opinion, detrimental to the experience. Which is sad, because it is well and carefully crafted.
Lovely game, a bit slow at the beginning though. I know that was intentional, but I was quite close to quitting before the dog showed up. Mood was really pleasant and bitter-sweet.
Good job. :)
I like your interpretation of the theme! I do wish the tree and house were closer, so everything can be zoomed in larger. It looks very small, and I want to be able to get a great look at this tree that's growing.
Most moving game that I have played in this LD so far. Great job! Holistic!
Cool idea, but I feel like it might not be the best for LD, because lot of ppl won't wait I feel like, I actually did, but was doing other stuff on my 2nd monitor, which is not the best imo. It is quite atmospheric, but some nice quite music in the background would be really nice addition, also if it was not for the comments I would probably end the game in first few minutes. Anyhow, nice idea, original and the animations are cool as well, but might be relaying on the imagination and patience way too much, maybe some other actions happening in there like having the character from when he/she was young and then ppl leaving the house and graves appearing under the tree, season changing, birds flying by might make it lot better. Good job though.
It seems more to be a concept realisation than a game, but the animation mechanic is really good. :)
Interesting. I like quiet it is, and the details that you choose to focus on.
nice story but a little to slow in the development , i really enjoy you simple graph style
Beautiful.
Easily one of my favourites. A great concept and overall execution. Amazing how you managed to tell so sad story told with such minimalistic visuals.
Holy. Simple but deep. Nice work!
really moody and the graphics works real good. Great job! Congrats on your entry
Simple, yet really atmospheric. Awesome work! :)
Atmospheric and interesting. I do worry it might be too slow paced for your average LD voter to play through. Some more stuff going on here and there, or more of a hint at a story earlier, would probably help it feel more alive and draw the player in better so they stick around for the full experience.
Nice entry, great tone. A little long but I think that adds to the overall tone.
