How it feels

a contemplative interactive novel where your choices shape a quiet story of a rural girl seeking escape and self-discovery.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and emotional writing but are split on the story: some call it a powerful, realistic depiction of rural women's struggles, while others find the protagonist's passivity frustrating and the uniformly bleak endings, even in the new-game-plus, a missed chance for hope. The romance with a distant online figure feels one-sided to many.
