A very cute and heartfelt little game. I feel like it may have been a little too short, however, and maybe different combinations of items together could have different effects?

nice mood and music. but it becomes a bit boring for me after a while

Good music and great presentation of information!) I was interested in playing this

Very moody! I loved the art style and music. Good work!

Love this kind of idea! Kinda what I faced a month ago XD.

nice game, could have more levels =)

good music and fx. I like that there are choices and consequences, but no wrong answers. There's a refreshing focus on the good of what you chose instead of the loss of what you didn't. Positive and worth building on.

Gorgeous tiny game! Represents such a nice atmosphere of change in life that everyone undergoes sooner or later

Nice game, special like for the topic!

Good submission. It is obviously very short as-is, but what's there is polished and executed well in all aspects - I prefer to see that in a jam game over something larger in scale but with obvious things missing or unfinished.

An interesting game where every thing tells its own story. And the interesting idea is that we take something with us as a reminder of the good, and something should be left in the past.

Sad that it is just so short. Just wish I could check on the weight of things again (maybe a hovering tooltip?) Very heartfelt, the music and art fit in perfectly.

It was neat to go back through and see the results of bringing different items. If you wanted to add more replayability you could maybe add more results messages if certain items are brought together. Maybe add some sort of way for the player to see how many of these combos they've gotten. Cool game though.

Nice little game. I played it multiple times to read the different endings.

trsthstrs 2023-10-04 05:47

Neat little entry. Graphics are lovely and pairing well with the sfx and music! I wish the endscreen was like your screenshots with all the items set in place, cause the teddy on the pillow looks kinda cute.

morgie 2023-10-04 05:48

Aw this was soo cute. Just the start screen and music made me feel emotional. :crying_cat_face: The painterly art style is so pretty and matches the feeling of the game. I also really like that the objects blend into the scene. It made it feel like I was really exploring someone's room rather than clicking into predefined objects. Also, I loved reading the endings. Overall, great game that fits the theme well.

Also, I'm American so I had to convert it but the 17 pound pokemon figurine is KILLING ME.

The ending writing was nice, I wasn't sure what the end result would be until I saw that and I'm happy with the payoff.

You fit the theme really well! Nice music and graphics.

Cute entry, the different endings add something great to the game.

5 kg teddy bear, could get swole with that :smile: Honestly it's the emotional weight that makes up most of that. Great simple gameplay and wonderful end messages per item. Very nicely done.

Even though it's short, it was such a sweet experience <3. I love how you reused the ukulele and the GBA on the music and sfx volume sliders :)

(but I confess I found the absurd weights kinda distracting 😅)

I geniunely cried, Stella is the best dog, she literally saved me out of a burning house and paid for my college tuition. Seriously, the game is very sweet. 5kg teddy bear made me laugh.
