As a story, I really enjoyed its simplicity and elegant construction, and it's hard for me to call it just a walking simulator when walking about really added to the characterization. More like a visual novel with walking included, if you ask me. I'm glad that there wasn't any skill-based lock-and-key level design for this one, frankly. The animations were really cute. I liked the waving grass and how spare everything was, though I wasn't sure why you put the guy with just his bed in there. I think it would have been really cool if his whole place was filled with yellow dudes when you come back -&gt;&lt;- Because he made space for them, right?\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Anyway, thanks for the game!"},{"author_name":"Code White","author_uid":"37086","time":"Sep 2, 2014 @ 9:53am","epoch":1409651280,"text":"Loving the visual effects, and you set the mood great!"},{"author_name":"dook","author_uid":"18341","time":"Sep 3, 2014 @ 5:28pm","epoch":1409764980,"text":"Very nice mood in this!
