This game was absolutely beautiful. I love the dynamic between lillian and Mona. They've both been through a lot which has made them insecure, but they're trying their best. They give each other space and they talk about what they need. It takes a lot of strength to speak out about your needs when you've felt like a burden in the past. I find it so beautiful how they're helping each other overcome this. I read the dev diary and it was nice to hear your thoughts!
AUGH, this is so beautiful and sad! thank you for making this. i'm not sure how much of this game is based on your own experiences/those of loved ones, but regardless I hope you and everyone important to you is doing well
this game was such a sweet experience, i ended up sobbing at how touching it was. genuinely, it was amazing and i'd recommend it to anyone interested in playing it. it's short and beautiful. thank you so much for making this <3
thank you, truly thank you, this game was beautiful and a game I needed to play, thank you you put my perspective in words and art that I could never do thank you. A truly wonderful experience.
An incredibly tender-hearted meditation on needing other people, climate collapse, and how we move forward. This game's thoughtful and creative art style really sings and makes these feelings and places feel real. I was deeply moved by this game.
I loved the use of photographs with crayon sprites, it created such a nostalgic and intimate atmosphere, very fitting for the story. If I had played this game a few years ago it would have hit home even harder, it whispers to you and holds you. Thanks <3
mushrooms and bedrooms and so much heart and self roomed in this lovely little game. explores the heavy in such a gentle and comforting manner. playing this game is a warm warm hug. thank you :)
Man, this was such an insightful and visually interesting game. I love the blur of themes that were present and how they were handled, and I love how slow yet impactful everything was. The use of the mushroom and what it symbolizes really touched me and while I don't have all of the issues present, I related so deeply to the anxiety and helplessness present within the narrative. I feel so glad that you guys were able to complete this and have thoroughly enjoyed the different messages and visuals that were shown here, your hard work really paid off in making this a unique and interesting rpg!
idk why but i keep having this loading error of a png :/ ive only played 6 minutes of the game so far and it's not bad! (though i would like to play the entire game properly
This pretty much dealt with every feeling I have been feeling now and for a a while this game did alot for me thank you for putting it out this was an amazing game thanks for letting us experience it.
This is the kind of game that really spoke to me. It touched on difficult, complex themes in an engaging way with its mixed media format. I found one of the characters in particular to be incredibly relatable. When I played this game, it was exactly what I needed that night to make sense of things.
this is my favorite game of all times, which is not much because i'm still young and stuff, but considering that i don't always control how much time i have left, i must thank you.
A fascinating mixed-media narrative game. The constant shifts between scenes, and interaction help keep the experience more varied than many visual novels. This has the feeling of playing through a zine, or someones chapbook. There was obviously a lot of care and attention put into it. I feel bad criticizing a free game that obviously I get to enjoy for zero dollars off of someones hard work, but I did have some difficulty figuring out what is and isn't interactable. Not sure if I finished the story or not as I got kind of stuck. Anyway I still really enjoyed this a lot!
thank you for this comment, i'm glad you enjoyed it! yeah it's not always clear what is or isn't interactable.
there is a definite ending, if you're still interested in seeing it (probably closed the game already lol but maybe this'll be helpful to someone else). i'm not sure where you got stuck, but if it's in the "bedroom" area you're basically there. there's an opening in the north wall (it's supposed to be like a big sliding door that's ajar on the right side, but i think the visual cue is too subtle or the opening is too narrow, or the event is finicky or something). a couple ppl got stuck there and i just never found the time to edit and reupload it. anyway, thanks again, and have a good one.
Wow thank you so much! I closed the game but I was actually planning on finishing it when I got home from work. I am at the bedroom area, I just assumed I wasn't hunting enough... I'm totally going to try and definitively finish it later today!
love all the different ways of seeing and being. the formal attention to detail w/ the different ppl's syntax to convey things and placement of text boxes and different walking speeds in different places—this w/ the art dispensed emotional weight. stunning and heartfelt!

From Google: "'Transmisia' may refer to transphobia or the region of Transnistria [...]"
Ok, you've got my attention with either of those
great game! moved me to tears, really beautiful :)
this game was such a sweet experience, i ended up sobbing at how touching it was. genuinely, it was amazing and i'd recommend it to anyone interested in playing it. it's short and beautiful. thank you so much for making this <3
thank you, truly thank you, this game was beautiful and a game I needed to play, thank you you put my perspective in words and art that I could never do thank you. A truly wonderful experience.
This was really nice to play through. The last scene was beautiful and the buildup was well worth it, like straight out of a coming of age movie
genuinely incredible how much this speaks to me and my partner, almost like a mirror in a little game i wish i could give you money
좋은 게임, дякую.
An incredibly tender-hearted meditation on needing other people, climate collapse, and how we move forward. This game's thoughtful and creative art style really sings and makes these feelings and places feel real. I was deeply moved by this game.
God it was very deep, I felt and understood the whole idea of the story, the whole meaning......... just wow. it was an aweasome game and experience
No full screen :/
wow it was beautiful, i never expected it to be this deep
I loved the use of photographs with crayon sprites, it created such a nostalgic and intimate atmosphere, very fitting for the story. If I had played this game a few years ago it would have hit home even harder, it whispers to you and holds you. Thanks <3
see you in the other thing too :-)
mushrooms and bedrooms and so much heart and self roomed in this lovely little game. explores the heavy in such a gentle and comforting manner. playing this game is a warm warm hug. thank you :)
great game! Thanks!
I did not expect to be hit in the feels like that. What an incredible message, I think we would all be better off hear this right now...
*happy-sad grin*
lovely
Wish we could claim game as i don't have access to pc now so can't download
Man, this was such an insightful and visually interesting game. I love the blur of themes that were present and how they were handled, and I love how slow yet impactful everything was.

For me, it crashed upon launch every time (downloaded from the app)
Nice
this is my favorite game of all times, which is not much because i'm still young and stuff, but considering that i don't always control how much time i have left, i must thank you.
thank you so much for making this. absolutely beautiful.
beautiful little game :)
How can I save and load in this game? Do I have to go through the whole story everytime?
the escape button opens a menu with an option to save your game. I don't think you can save during dialogues though
i want to play this but for some reason it isn't working on my mac - it keeps ending unexpectedly :/
thank you for making this
