It's a procedural-generated platform-falling walking-simulating gamble game. Fine, let's call it randomly walk.

I called it 'My Dear White Garden' because the reference "My Dear Esther". However, the narrative part become so limited that I can no longer be regarded as a narrative game. I find it fun when you handle with all the random elements. So let's just emphasize the randomness.

You're falling in the beginning. And the you land on the platform. And then you'll find your task is to go down to find a next platform. And then next and next and next. Yes, life is hard ... But in the meanwhile, you can learn different skills to enhance your ability. For example, you can learn a DESTORY spell to kill the floating cubes. Or you can learn a flash spell to transport yourself onto the top of a cube. And there is no mana system, Yeah~~~ However, the spells are so powerful that they break the balance of this world. You'll experience some randomly happened event(punishment) as you cast spells. So you'll use some randomly-learned spells to run over the randomly-generated level get some random awards and face some random events. I should name the game 'Start form nothing and random everything'. Hahahaha....

Hope you enjoy the music. It's a license-free one I found in:
