Beautifully sentimental game. Great music and the art was grand. What might have enhanced the mood even more was possibly recorded narration and also audio for the answer phone message. You can always add those whenever though. Really great work, thanks for uploading this I was really immersed in it
Simply beautiful. The music and the theme really hit you and immerse. I would play this in full if you improve upon it.
I lost my father last year, but I didn't found the time to visit him at the graveyard. I confess that your game particularly touched me. Thank you.
The music is very moody and fits the theme. You managed very well to put the sadness across.
This is clearly not my type of game, way too emotional. Tho it's well made, no bugs, gets the story across.
(When I was at the graveyard I thought I should've remembered her actual name. xD)
This was a very heart touching piece of art and I like your take on the theme, good job!
Beautiful game, very moving, loved the music. Fits the theme in a way I hadn't thought of. Good job :)
Very deep game. I really liked the fan in the first room and that you put unique names on the graves. Nice touch!
This is the most beautiful entry I've played by far, and one of the most beautiful games I've ever played period. The writing, music, mechanics, mood, and art were all flawless. What a brilliant and creative way to represent the theme of keeping it alive. This game is extremely underrated and absolutely loved it! :smiley_cat:
What a sweet little game. I really enjoyed (maybe that's not the right word, but...) the mood you had going on here.
Possibly useful info: On Mac, it was hard to line my cursor up with each item you needed to interact with. It seemed the detection box was always to to the Southwest of the actual item. Not sure what the issue would be there!
damn the game is awesome and deep, so cool... check ours for an emotional moment :D
You definitely captured a distinct mood with this one. I like that this explores different territory of what games can be used for; they needn't always be about fun and excitement. One note on the music: Kevin Macleod has very specific requirements for how to give credit for his work, so you may want to take a look at his website and adjust your game description accordingly. I've used his songs for many projects, so I'm pretty familiar with the process!
It made me genuinely sad :( well done fellow godotengine user! :3
We can really feel you put your emotions when making this game. Really beautiful.
Two small notes, not really important, but so you know for the next ludum dare : the writings are really small on high-res screen, which makes it hard to read, and since you did not compose the music you should opt-out of the audio category
Hit me hard. I read every single gravestone in the graveyard looking for "Seraphina" but didn't find one.
One note about gameplay: I wasn't able to immerse myself at the beginning because I was mashing my keyboard wildly trying to interact with things. It should be "click" not "e" in my opinion. Or at least you should list that control somewhere.
@guardaro I copied the attribution exactly as it was stated in the incompetech download section. Is there anything else I have to do? If so I couldn't find any more instructions
@dodormeur Updated, Thanks~
Also, i'll keep accessibility more in the forefront of my mind in the next title I make
@mrhassansan was not aware of this issue, thank you for letting me know
@herrybiscuit My bad--I didn't realize at first that "Relaxing Piano Music" was actually the name of the track!
