Stunning visuals with a short story. I didn't immediately realize this was part of the Eastshade universe, now I'm looking forward to trying that title out as well.

Good game with beautiful scenery and relaxing music. The only thing to pay attention to is the graphics, it could make some players nauseous.

I am 32 years old.
My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old.
When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing.
Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side.
With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.
After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like.
Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends.
Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together.
Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that.
Thank you.

I played this intro game after playing Eastshade. For me it was more of a homecoming than a leaving, but it was interesting to see how Eastshade grew out of Leaving Lyndow.

"Leaving Lyndow" is a short, first-person exploration adventure Indie Game.
You play as Clara which graduated with honors and is now fulfilling her childhood wish to join the Researchers' Guild. It is her last day on the island where she grew up. You help her complete her travel preparations, visit her favorite places, and say goodbye to them all before embarking on a journey she may never return from.
I really loved the Graphics and the soundtrack of the game. It was a relaxing experience and it had a good atmosphere to play in.
The mechanics were easy. You use the mouse to look around and interact with objects, persons,etc. and WASD for walking.
It took me 70 minutes to complete the game but that is because i spended almost 20 minutes to figure out how to beat the ball thingy. (I posted a screenshot on how to hold the ball)
I bought the game for 0,99€ (on Sale) and it was worth it. I don't think i will play the game again because one playthrough is enough to see everything you can.
It still was a good game, try it out!

Eastshade is my favorite game. It's a game that makes me feel an inner peace no other game has ever given me. After I finished Eastshade, I got Leaving Lyndow, but I knew I needed to save it for a time when I really needed that inner peace again.
I just finished playing another game that made me feel extremely depressed and the depression is lingering, so I knew I needed to finally use Leaving Lyndow. It's only 45 min long, but as soon as the game started, I was transported back to Eastshade and breathed a sigh of relief.
After playing, I feel much better.
Leaving Lyndow feels like it's a less complete version of Eastshade, where the character models aren't quite finished yet, but I didn't mind. If you'd like a small intro to Eastshade or want more of Eastshade when you're finished, I highly recommend.

Leaving Lyndow is a first-person exploration game, it takes around 45 mins to complete. The main goal is to pack and say goodbye to your friends/family because you're leaving. Take the time to explore and enjoy the music. Thanks for the peaceful experience now I need to buy Eastshade! ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶
