A Harvest Story by gord10ahmet

[raw]
made by gord10ahmet for Ludum Dare 52 (JAM)

itch.jpg A Harvest Story is a short interactive experience in which you meet a mysterious stranger in a park in an autumn day. It has Commodore 64 aesthetics. I took some inspirations from Sandman.

Unfortunately, there is no music. This is an interactive story, rather than a game.

nice little story, wouldn't wanna spoil anything.

Visuals achieve the C64 aesthetic you were going for, some audio could go a long way too but I presume this was intended as a compo entry, so it's fine.

The visuals were cool. It would have been nice to have a few more branching paths, but understandable given this is a solo game jam.

Thanks, @kizilejderha and @justine-olshan !
Yes, it was supposed to be a compo entry. I had chosen the wrong category while submitting the game.

reallya good one....simply good one...while i was playing your game i was hearinga lofi music in background (youtube was playing random lofi track from lofiGirl channel)...that music connects me with your game..!! so i kindly suggest you to add a calm music behind your game...

Nice graphics, caught the C64 style well! I understand you did not have time to add music, but the silence makes the few sounds that are in the game a tad loud to my liking. Otherwise, great entry!

Definitely an effective and short little story, and certainly fitting of the theme! Also: harvest/fall is my favorite season too :D I enjoyed that, thanks for making it!

The story has a nice feel and seems to convey a bit of philosophy. I've found that if I choose not to sit down but to leave, the path goes in a loop, this little detail also became part of the philosophy. Well done!
