How it feels

A pixel-art adventure with light puzzles and a nostalgic 90s setting, driven by a darkly humorous story about childhood mistakes and redemption.

What players say

A short 2–3 hour story about a child in a small Chinese town during economic decline around the year 2000. Players praise the nostalgic atmosphere and authentic characters, but frustration over the lack of manual saves or a chapter select is a recurring complaint.
