This is the first time i've commented here and i just want to say that it's one of my favorite games, the story, the narrative and the way it unfolded was beautiful.
The end left me very surprised, but after a while i understood that it was somenthing very likely to happen.
One thing i really liked was that the game was in spanish and that made my experience more enjoyable.
(sorry if my comment is not well understood, english is not my first language,literally take a translator to write this).
This was a life changing game that helped me so much with my religion/spirituality issues, while also being beautiful and well written in every way. I don't even know what to say other than that this is the best game I've ever played, and the fact that it's available for free makes me feel beyond lucky and like there is hope in this world. Thank you for creating and sharing this.
Such a good game man the story is so well written, its really worth it a lot i swear this game really bawl my eyes out for real, it's so beautiful i 100% recommend to try it.
este juego es maravilloso, nunca lo termine de jugar cuando salio porque no tenia tiempo, estaba ocupada y se me termino olvidando por lo que no continue, pero hoy lo recorde y empeze desde 0.
Solo tengo que deceir que me arrepiento de no haberlo jugado antes, personalmente, la historia te atrapa, es interesante el tema del fin del mundo y esa ´´muerte sonriente´´,y me pregunto(Spoiler de aqui adelante si no han jugado) si se supone que cuando mueren por eso sonrien, ¿por que daniel no estaba sonriendo?, acasoe eso tambien era una mentira?
Una de las cosas mas interesantes era ´´el vacio/the void´´, al final, nos muestran la verdadera cara de la organizacion y te deja pensando en que tal vez hicieron cosas mas turbias, o en cuanto le han mentido a su gente. al inicio del juego cuando limpiamos la casa de jess sabemos que él vacio es un grupo terrorista segun daniel, a lo que eames dice que ese grupo no tiene nada que ver con el vacio que son imitadores, pero sabiendo lo que le hicieron a los niños no seria sorprendente que tambien fueran parte de el vacio (aunque es solo una teoria que me gusta pensar)
la relacion entre los protagonistas es encantadora, se supo desarollarla y evolucionarla, convirtiendola en algo lindo y triste, porque se amaban intensamente, pero sus caminos se encontraron muy tarde y no pudieron estar juntos
Al principio eames, el protagonista, no es mucho de mi agrado, parece ser frio y seco sin una buena razon, pero al final todo su comportamiento y personalidad cobran sentido cuando concoemos su historia y su vida,el como sufrio y como penso que su destino era estar solo hasta que conocio a daniel.
perdon si es algo largo, relamente me gusto el juego y finalmente tengo tiempo libre como para escribir una pequeña reseña.
This game was absolutely both heart breaking and heart warming
At first I didn't enjoy the cleaners brash attitude but I quickly realized why he had that front and the circumstances that made him that way. Daniel was designed beautifully, right away he grows onto you and warms the heart of our dear cleaner.
I don't want to include any spoilers in my review but the way they approached the topics and many questions of this game was precious.
Even though the end was wrenching I could see myself replaying it and sharing it to my friends for them to get precious memories as I did with this game.
Thank you for creating it, the visuals, the audio all amplified the game to its fullest potential
I recently downloaded the game and I'm really enjoying it, but I can't continue because when I try to clean one of the objects in the hallway, it tells me that I have to click on it many times.
this game was amazing i cant even put it to words. i dont think ive cried this much over a game before but seriously this game changed the trajectory of my life
I don't think I've been more compelled to write a comment on a game I've completed before. This game is a masterpiece. The storytelling was great, and you really get invested in the characters. The gameplay was simple and kept me engaged, while being much more invested in the story. Now I just need some fanfiction to soothe my heart cause- ;-;
Goodness gracious I cried so hard several times, But most of the story I was able to theorize beforehand like how he was Jess's brother and how it was impossible for him to not have developed a core due to him having feasible feelings for Daniel. I hope to see a sequel to this! Maybe just a visual novel where they reunite in the next world if it does exist.
(FEW SPOILERS ABOUT THE LORE) This was honestly one of my best experiences with visual-novel genre games. The ending was sad, but I felt there was no other fitting conclusion to the story otherwise. As I continued farther into the game and took a liking or sort of got attached to the lore of the game, the main character ending up with the same fate again had me a bit panicked myself worried about HIS future. I'm more than satisfied with the ending. The story itself and the emotions it had me feeling throughout really can't be put into words for me. It was just beautiful and hypothetically speaking if there was an apocalypse nearing the world, then I would possibly expect it to play out like this game has portrayed it (maybe excluding cleaners and the Void, etc...). I believe and would go as far as to say that the concept of the world ending and peoples' reactions and responses towards it are interesting to observe in the game's lore. You have people like the Cleaner who aren't too bothered about it and focus more on their routines or job, they don't have too much people close to them so they just accept the fact it's always going to be just them alone at the end. You have people like Daniel who still have hope or still cling on to the old world, and want things to go back the way they were. These two people share their days with eachother and end up changing themselves as well, while learning about jess too.Anyways, obsessing over the story and spoiling aside, I appreciate the creator of the game. I honestly wonder how devs get ideas for games that are so great, and where in the world this AMAZING lore comes from. Thank you SO SO MUCH for the creating this game!!! I LITERALLY CRIED AT THE END AND WANTED TO WRITE ALL ABOUT WHAT IM FEELING RIGHT NOW. OHMYGOD WHERE WAS THIS GAME BEFORE??? I LOVED IT. I really hope they got the new world.
GOOOODDD EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS GAME IS SO GOOD IM NOT EVEN JOKING??? THE STORYLINE AND ALL IT LITERALLY MADE ME CRY... SRSLY... I LOVE THEIR RELATIONSHIP AND TROPE SO MUCH IT HURTS JAWDKADHKJSN THIS GAME NEEDS MORE RECOGNITION ISTG
This game is amazing and I have to admit, I teared up several times while playing, and definitely cried at the end. Absolutely amazing story and I do hope they all got their happy ending.
My team and I are currently working on a volunteer project for Pride Month and I think your game would be a great candidate. In short, we want to translate a queer game for free to give visibility to LGBT gaming. Would you be interested?
Please message me on Twitter @Liar_is_fire, or by email at caroline.tsakanias@gmail.com so I can give you more info!
We’re closing applications in a few days so make sure you don’t miss it :)
I played it a long time ago but couldn't find it again. Now, here I am again, and I've to say what of an awesome game this is. I cried for MINIMUM 30 MINUTES STRAIGHT after ending the game. It's beautiful. 11/10, would play it a hundred times more if I had the time.
Play this game blind, it is worth it, their story is worth it, I only ache that the end is where it was, but this is the most emotionally provoking game. At first I didn't like the characters, there was nothing to them, but as they became more defined, they became more amiable, and by the end of it, I found myself so attached I didn't want to let them go.
I hope the promise was kept, they deserve that much, at the very least.
played the game blind. expected disturbing stuff, got my eyes bawling in return. jokes aside, the story and mini-games are so good. I got so attached to the characters, they need to get married in the new world!!!!! (if it exists :3)
i had a hard time understanding the "hype" surrounding the game after reading the reviews when i started playing. however, i believe that players looking for a well-written story should definitely stick around.
i especially liked the game because it's not pretending to be something it's not. the plot was albeit p********le good, the music matched the ambiance, and it's really enjoyable. though i was on edge at times, i have come to appreciate the design choices made since they tie nicely with the lore. the MC was also great, and i relate to him immensely.
rather than fun, this game was a mysterious and unique journey. i was moved by the ending, and i believe the episodes leading to it were brought with finesse.
the biggest critic i would give is that one of the mini-games (the one where you have to press "enter" several times to fil the bar) was actual nightmare-inducing, and my arms now hurt from it.
thank you for this game. though i now have a lot to think about, i am leaving with no regrets.
SO SO SO SO GOOD OH MY GOD. I bawled my eyes out and I feel empty now that I finished it. Such a beautiful story and character development. Thank you for this experience omg.
Hello, I received a fail to load error for audio/bgs/aj%201480%20TVStatic1.ogg while they're cleaning the kitchen area for the 1st time and the cleaner is tweakin. I try to Retry but it is constantly popping up and I can't proceed normally anymore.
while im cleaning jess's house, when i dot the last bit of trash in the entrance, it glitches out and says "Uncaught LoadError,chrome-extension://njgcanhfjdabfmnlmpmdedalocpafnhl/movies/Cleaning01.webm,()=>{this._element.load();}"
This story literally made me cry. I don't know why I was expecting a happy ending but I guess I just hoped that it would show them all being the new world that was promised to them. I hope that they do get their happy ending.
This make me bawled my eyes out, the story is so well written that I wish I could see this story as an animation or a manga. Maybe one of the other commentor is right that it being a cleaning game limit the story in itself but I can't blame you guys since its in a time constraint. I do have to say that you guys did really well with the story, the music, and the art. Good luck on future project!
WOW I was so invested in the story! It was so beautiful and tragic, and though I wish we could've seen a little epilogue to know what happens to them both after the ending it was still great.
It will be in a long while because we have other games planned before that, but there is a much longer sequel fully written, so we hope we'll be able to bring it to you someday! :)
In the meantime, do imagine any future you want for them ;)

I just finished the game and i am stunned. I don't know how to feel. This was life changing and I think my life course just got turned upside-down.
This is a masterpiece. I felt things i didn't know was possible. I don't even know what to do with myself now
Man...that was...an experience.
I don't think any adjective can describe what i feel right now.
Such a good game man the story is so well written, its really worth it a lot i swear this game really bawl my eyes out for real, it's so beautiful i 100% recommend to try it.

But when I click it multiple times it doesn't work
algo tarde, pero simplemente tienes que cerrar el juego y entrar denuevo, pero si no guardaste la partida tendras que empezar de 0
I rlly want to play this game T_T

I have never cry so much for a game, it was beautiful story.The characters were well written and soundtract amazing I love this game!

Que jogo lindo sério, é um dos melhores e mais emocionante que já joguei.
This game has reignited my love for single-player experiences. showing me how powerful they can be.
The character designs in this game are so creative and imaginative. I love seeing what new characters I'll meet next.
Play this game blind, it is worth it, their story is worth it, I only ache that the end is where it was, but this is the most emotionally provoking game.

One of the best story games ive ever played...
played the game blind. expected disturbing stuff, got my eyes bawling in return. jokes aside, the story and mini-games are so good. I got so attached to the characters, they need to get married in the new world!!!!! (if it exists :3)
the continue isnt working :(
my save got deleted and doing all that dialog and cleaning again isnt happening :/
my honest and "objective" review (spoiler-free):
i had a hard time understanding the "hype" surrounding the game after reading the reviews when i started playing. however, i believe that players looking for a well-written story should definitely stick around.
i especially liked the game because it's not pretending to be something it's not. the plot was
albeit p********legood, the music matched the ambiance, and it's really enjoyable. though i was on edge at times, i have come to appreciate the design choices made since they tie nicely with the lore. the MC was also great, and i relate to him immensely.rather than fun, this game was a mysterious and unique journey. i was moved by the ending, and i believe the episodes leading to it were brought with finesse.

thank you for this game. though i now have a lot to think about, i am leaving with no regrets.
I've never cried so hard over a game before in my life---that was so damn beautiful!! Those two had my heart and smashed it to bits.
SO SO SO SO GOOD OH MY GOD. I bawled my eyes out and I feel empty now that I finished it. Such a beautiful story and character development. Thank you for this experience omg.
Such a beautiful game and story.
i cried for like 30 mins after this, it was an amazing and vivid story with more depth than i could have ever imagined 100000/10
Hello, I received a fail to load error for audio/bgs/aj%201480%20TVStatic1.ogg while they're cleaning the kitchen area for the 1st time and the cleaner is tweakin. I try to Retry but it is constantly popping up and I can't proceed normally anymore.

and i cant continue, what do i do
nvm, idk what that was but i cleaned up in a differnt order and i'm able to continue
This make me bawled my eyes out, the story is so well written that I wish I could see this story as an animation or a manga. Maybe one of the other commentor is right that it being a cleaning game limit the story in itself but I can't blame you guys since its in a time constraint. I do have to say that you guys did really well with the story, the music, and the art. Good luck on future project!
bawled my eyes out just bought on steam so I could get the artbook.
beautiful story that I got so attached to.
I kind of want to write a story about it, though I'm not sure I would ever post it anywhere. Is that something you would be okay with?
Hello! :D
We're glad you've enjoyed the game! :)
Absolutely, feel free to write anything you want! It would be our honor, whether it is made public or not.
If you have any question related to the story/lore/anything else feel free to contact us :)
Best of luck to you and your creative endeavors!
WOW I was so invested in the story! It was so beautiful and tragic, and though I wish we could've seen a little epilogue to know what happens to them both after the ending it was still great.
Thank you so very much! :)
It will be in a long while because we have other games planned before that, but there is a much longer sequel fully written, so we hope we'll be able to bring it to you someday! :)
In the meantime, do imagine any future you want for them ;)
