What an outstanding game. I didn't know what I was getting myself into but I'm so glad I played through this finally. Such a gorgeous story; painful and emotional. The music, the scenery, the graphics, the animals - all of it was just perfect. I am blown away by this game.
Truly an incredible journey ♡︎
(yes I am crying my eyes out)

I recommend people looking to play this game go into it with the following knowledge:
1. That this game is more of an interactive movie than a full game.
2. Minimalist mode is preferred and allows for many story beats to land better.
3. This game is best purchased during a sale.
Overall, I really liked this! The game was a short and sweet experience with good ost and very good art design. I have a couple of nitpicks (i.e the VA being a little goofy and the art sometimes having an "uncanny valley" feel, and also the price probably being too steep, etc.), however those have already been covered by other reviews.
I also tried to Fish% this game (where you play through the entire game as a fish. Don't try it for your sanity), and failed royally because you're not supposed to play the entire game as a fish.

This "Game" is a wonderful cinimatic story, while i use quotes around game as its more of an interactive movie pulling you in, the levels flow so naturally that my brain sorta autopiloted my character it felt so natural that it was almost like i'd played it before! i have 10,000's of hours in gaming and this game was a story i will never forget the world building and the detail are something words dont describe, while not a game in the conventional sense, truly it is much, much more. thank you for making this story

Lost a friend to suicide about one and a half year ago, she was not close but we were in relatable situations.
I donated to the trevor project then, and got this through a humble bundle.
In that light the story hits hard, and when push comes to shove, they were much the same.
Check up on and support your friends, there's a guilt in being the person they last talked with.

If you get motion sickness easily DO NOT play this! At least not without some accommodations to help. I generally either sat far away from the screen or took it in stages and took breaks often. I don't usually have this issue in third person POV games but something about this one really bothered me.
That being said, I really liked the game. It has an amazing story and the concept was really fun. The art is also beautiful and incredibly well rendered.
I think the game would really benefit from a mode that helps to lessen motion sickness if possible but overall a beautiful game.

Level design 7/10 sometimes you feel too rushed to get all the collectibles (Waterslide Portions)
Music 10/10
Art Style 10/10
Story 10/10
this is my new Favorite Singleplayer-Game
