I played Beacon Pines in one sitting and it is cute, has emotion, a bit of horror and is soooo well made! It touches on themes of loss and grief in a good way.

I missed one achievement, so I had to look it up, but no moon logic or backtracking or getting stuck - just a well told story that kept me engaged the whole time and had me progressing at a nice pace, while still having time to look at the flowers and kick a melon

There's nothing I'd want to change, and I have nothing to complain about. The game knows what it wants to be and achieves its goals flawlessly and with a huge heart. The art is beautiful, the characters are adorable, and there is a bit of LGBTQIA+ too.

The humour is also nicely spread out and made me laugh out loud or chuckle several times. A few nice references here and there as well.

Thank you all so much for pointing this out to me! <3 Thanks also to all the backers on Kickstarter for making this game possible.

For anyone planning to buy this, it's a couple dollars less in the Humble Store (Steam Key) than it is on Steam. They are both listed at 40% off, but Humble's base price is lower. I say this because I almost bought it on Steam before I realized I could save a bit more.

This has to be one of the best games I've ever played.

Beautiful art/animation style, incredibly sweet storyline with characters I genuinely really loved. Highly emotional near the end and I really enjoyed the "Pick Your Own Adventure" style that always allowed you to go back & choose a different path at any time. I loved the storyline and found it incredibly interesting at all times, at no point did I feel as though it was dragging on or getting dull.
