Cool game. You've got a pretty decent drawing skills.
Thank you so much for playing it, and for the video! I appreciate it a lot!
Drawing is one of my favorite things, so I'm glad to hear that :')
This is the first of your games that I think I've played! It's certainly short, but it didn't need to be any longer. The forest background is so pretty! The purple shadows fit the mood very well.
Based on how your afterword suggests that a happy interpretation is intended, I'm guessing that the black dog might be a spirit form of Mila, or came on Mila's behalf, to protect Hans and steer him out of the forest before nighttime. A nice day that he can carry with him, as long as he doesn't think about it too hard? It's sad seeing him just standing there talking to himself once the illusion is revealed... But I'm sure I'm still missing something!
Thank you so much for playing my games!! It really means a lot to hear this!! I love shading in purple, it gives off a very nice ambience :')
Ooh, you're actually super close with that interpretation! That's pretty much on the spot! I initially left it a bit open, but I don't mind confirming this part of the story at this point. Since it's so short, a lot of the setting ended up unexplained, but maybe I could bring something back from this game someday...!
OH.....
For a short game, this is really splendid!!! The amount of detail put into the environments is like, incredible. All that really intricate pixel work.... But also, the story itself is nice and wholesome, maybe. The ending has me thinking........... things.......... and overall, it's very well-executed!!!!!!
Thank you so much!!!! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!! :'D
The story is definitely wholesome... perhaps... maybe........ I'm really glad to hear it left you thinking!! Thank you so much for playing it!!
What a nice short game. I love the art and maps, there's a lot of atmosphere to each of them. I can tell you put a lot of effort into it! The story is quite nice and the ending seems very mysterious!
I did encounter a small bug, I interacted with the locked closet at the right side and then after I obtained the photo the game froze ^^; I did complete the game through to the end.
Overall, this is a beautifully made game ^^
Thank you so much for playing!! I'm really glad you liked it! :')
Very nice catch on the bug, I hadn't noticed that possibility at all! It should be fixed now. Thank you so much!!
