How it feels

A somber, introspective journey through grief and supernatural intervention, with a quiet, personal feel.

What players say

Players describe it as a short visual novel with no choices, carried by an unusually ambitious and dense worldbuilding that mixes sci-fi, theology, and philosophy. The art is a point of contention: some find its rough, Flash-era look charming, while many call it too childish or off-putting.
