Remember by Elijah Moreno
Experience the life of a struggling single father in a world where your memories are currency.
Update:
-Fixed a bug where you could walk around in the second section of the game
-Significantly reduced the amount of flashing lights in the flashback sequence (sorry if that caused issues for anyone)
-Fixed an issue where the text was often unreadable by changing it's color to be more blue

Artistic direction is very beautiful !
The text is sometimes unreadable :/
And the caddy sometimes is stuck in the wall
However, good job :D
I liked the direction of the story. It started off a slow, but the moment when the father went to bargain for his daughter's health and left her a phone call really hit me. The text scrolling sound really added to the atmosphere and made everything feel more visceral, well done.
Outside of that, the text was super difficult to read at times since most of the background was white and other than the introduction, it wasn't really a game so much as a short film. Overall fun story telling though, I definitely enjoyed sitting back and watching the story unfold.
The only thing I noticed is that sometimes the white text on white background was hard to read. But all in all it is an awesome game / experience :)
The choices kind of felt non-consequential and the interactions were ultra basic, though it did add to the mood.
The writing actually got me a little, well done -- nit-picking the writing a bit, I think saying "god damn" to your daughter in a moment like that seems extremely unlikely and somewhat spoiled the build up to that point for me.
Minor nit-picks aside, this was a really unique and interesting submission, definitely one of my favorites so far!
