I beat this in an afternoon. As a 37 year old I identified several stages of life as well as the ups and downs that go with it. Ultimately, a good puzzle platformer with an interesting story.

Review PeppyPenguin 5/5 · Mar 18, 2022
Very sweet little game.
I think I didn't even pay $5 CAD for this game when it was on sale. Definitely worth the couple of dollars, especially given how much time and effort must have been put into making this game.

It's a beautiful metaphorical journey that is guaranteed to pull at your heartstrings. The music is poignant and the visuals are stunning. Some of the gameplay can actually be a bit challenging at times - I know there were spots where I kept having to respawn.
You'll notice some grammar mistakes, and I didn't care much for how the parts where you can select what dialogue the circle says was done, but that's all very minor.
Once you finish the main storyline you can go back and collect mushrooms to unlock bonus levels, so I might pick it up again in the future for some cozy gaming.
Strongly recommend: it's worth your time!

Precioso, me hizo reflexionar mucho sobre la muerte y las enfermedades mentales, además lo jugué en un momento en el que me hacía mucha falta. Aunque tiene algunos problemas de diseño y de programación xD.

A wonderful journey
Simple level design with charming aesthetics and a surprisingly deep look at how we treat each other and our perception of self. The gameplay stays interesting throughout but offers no real challenge and is relatively short. However, the beautiful dialogue makes this a game that's absolutely worth your time, even if it is only brief.
