Great game! Graphics was awesome and music was really fitting. Atmosphere was really dark and not very fun to play. But overall the game is cool.

Great game! Graphics was awesome and music was really fitting. Atmosphere was really dark and not very fun to play. But overall the game is cool.
Very emotional and well executed, the art is beautiful and inspiring. As always good job <3!
I wish I could try it but my anti virus blocked it.
Wow impressive entry, what a mood!
this seriously gave me chills.
The art style fits the feeling of the game really well and is just very well done. especially the expressions in her face and the blinking. felt really alive. the postures also convey a lot.
The gameplay is what you'd expect from an adventure game. The part where you click the heart was surprising though. I don't no what it does, but it works really well.
great to see something no that 'gamey'
one small note: when alt-tabbing back to the game, the resolution was halfed and everything had weird purple colors.
Great atmosphere and visuals, as always.
Is there more than one ending?
Wowww that is so effective. The graphics and the darkness and clicking the heart and everything. Best use of the theme I've seen so far.
Man. That gave me chills.
Really great entry ! Hard to handle this kind of issues in a jam game ! But you did well, I think. But the game kept crashing everytime the night fell... So...
Wow. Blown away by this entry. Very very good.
I am very impressed !
Nice art and good story. You got a really emotional atmosphere with this art and this music. Nice job and I hope that you keep working on this visual novel after the ludum.
One of the best entrys so far! Love it!
Damn. This was something! Awesome job!
Beautiful and really effective art. What a great idea for the theme. I have mixed feelings about the pacing, which had to be slow to draw me into the story, and I respect that. I maybe was in the wrong mental mode, playing a number of random video games in a lit room with the sun up. I think this could have been a different experience for me late at night in a more contemplative and open-ended engagement. I don't ding the game for that, but rather myself. I like that you challenged me that way, but I will admit to the buzzing background noise of impatience in my experience, which I brought to the table.
I believe the game may have crashed on me, although perhaps it was just an abrupt end? There was trouble. My brother was speaking in his sleep. I clicked on a few things. The game was gone. Unsure if that was intended.
I played it a second time and completed it. I'm glad I did. Really great game, can't recommend it enough
One of the most beautiful artstyles I seen so far, really great use of the theme with the heart and memories being the one room. I am guessing the game closing when you looked out the window was the abrupt ending, interesting way to do it but some people might think the game crashed. Mood is an easy 5/5 here.
Amazing!
Amazing game! The best one I have played in this ludum dare! Congratulations
The pixel art is absolutely amazing, and the atmosphere gorgeous. This is a great entry, I loved it !!! Wonderful job on this !!!
Wow.. just wow. It's really beautiful, especially after all these action games I've played so far. It's an adventure game Lucas Art level but with a sad mood and made in only 3 days.. That blows my mind!
I'm really glad I discovered your work cause it really touches me. Hope to see more of you :)
That was pretty incredible. The art, the audio, the mood, everything was spot on. It's interesting to see a less literal take on this theme, and the game didn't suffer for it one bit. I try to give at least a little constructive criticism, but I honestly can't think of a single thing that I'd change or improve about this game.
Intense and very realistic story. The graphics were incredible and the music fit very well. I really liked the palette swaps.
Well done interpretation of the story of Anne Frank (I think that her story inspired the game). Great atmosphere and graphics. My only nitpick would be the score: it was too monotone and looped too often.
good use of theme. the mood you set was incredible, and the story was great. nice work.
By abrupt ending do you mean the game closing violently without any reason? Because it's what happened to me after I gave the picture to Lukas and tried to walk to the left :/
This aside (and the empty hotspots as you mentioned)this is, as usual, a gorgeous entry, and a pretty good (and sad) interpretation of the theme. Funny to see that both our games have a mechanic in commons while being totally different.
The Holocaust is a serious matter, and this game handled it the way it should be. Kudos.
That was absolutely incredible.
I had to try it twice as the game kept crashing at night, but I can't recommend this enough. I think some of the scenes needed some audio, but I think that the way that the musical intensity grew with the progression of the story was just incredible.
Amazing work. I loved the art and the dark, subdued art style. Good use of music, too. Both fit the story very well. Also, very creative use of the theme. The story was very well-written, despite the rather abrupt ending.
The heart clicking mechanic was a neat idea, although I feel like it could have been explored further. Maybe it could have affected the story somehow, or created some sort of challenge or trade-off? Given how light the game was on "gameplay" (no adventure game puzzles or VN-style dialogue branching as far as I could tell), I think it might have added a bit more depth to the experience.
Hmm, I really liked the graphics and feel, but the game kinda dimmed into gray and became unplayable and seemed to close, not sure if that was a crash or not while I looked for father's hammer. Overall fitting music and dialog, great graphics. I was able to walk half through the wall earlier when discussing the star on our window. I would consider that a bug...
Very impressive, music, screenplay and graphics set a perfect mood.
Thanks for the entry!
Wow that was really intense. stupid Lukas....stupid stupid Lukas.
Well, there's a challenger for best Mood, for sure. This is dark as hell. Very well done considering the time you had, I wish there was more to it! Congrats anyway; the art is fantastic.
I really love your game, I was doing a TOP for my channel but I changed my mind and I made one video for your game (in Spanish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=706RtRhT2Ak ), just explaining things about it. I´m in love with this.
I hope you work in a complete version of the game
the graphics are just awesome and together with the music makes me feel very sad, also that I have to press her heart always again in the Intersections makes me so sad what fits perfectly to the storry

Great job with the game! I really loved the art and the audio. That being said, I hated every time the game would crash and I would have to restart from the beginning. This probably wouldn't have been such an issue if you had autosaves, or a game over screen instead of crashing.
Without the appropriate story-meta (ex. the story is about a robot turning you off life support or something) the crashing just seems like the game is unstable, rather than intended.
All that being said, this was a great entry!
Lovely graphics, touching game. I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/anJNAp7E9kc
Perfect as a german I am very moved by this also the graphics bring the game alive. The audio could have been more and the room part should have been longer but nontheless gut gemacht
I also included this game in an article of my favorites! http://fireside.gamejolt.com/post/jam-favorites-ludum-dare-37-gwqmcmek
Its not possible to play it anymore. The link is down. For everyone it was pretty good
