Well that was very indie. Dont want to spoil for others but an enjoyable experience.

I think it would've been better with a second ending, but it's really nice apart from that.

Well, that was depressing. (but not rated badly for being so!) A rather philosophically existential message. I think I'll have a little cry now.

thanks DustyStylus.
Enjoy sometimes to hear some people tell the truth. But after a while they stop to talk they can not continue

It was an experience. I wouldn't say a nice one but I enjoyed my time playing it. It would have been better with an alternative ending, but I can see you got a lot done within the time you had :) Good job.

Bleak seems like a fitting word to describe this one. You certainly got the message across!

It's really depressing. I think telling the truth is the hard path, but the only one worth walking. Any way, I liked the island. I like the exploration and the narrative. Good job!

I'm not sure I would call this a game -- more of an interactive essay. I found the narrative pretty... uh... unmoving, mostly due to the inconsistent/vague writing. You obviously did something wrong to end up on this island... helping poor people is a nice sentiment, but how were you helping? Why do I care about saving you/me? What's with the trees?

The music was quite soothing, though.

Hi SimianLogic ,

When I was kid they told me "Bad people go to jail"
but when I grew up I saw some good people in jail

The initial text when the player tells her story sometimes is hard to read because of the text color and the background. Blue and black are the hardest ones. I think it would be better if you choose one color and stick to that.

Hello,

Nice game, it took two days until it struck me despair of getting on the water :). Regardless of the captain death in every attempt, the accompanying music is very beautiful .. Liked. Thanks
