5/5, getting all the endings took me less than 5 minutes, but each route had me in tears, it's no longer than a short novella, but this short story made me cry the first route, each of the routes are beautifully written, from doomed love never meant to bloom, to an end with a happy story, and of course, the end in between, words left to the wind. if you have the time, I highly suggest playing this.
Some extra notes on the other aspects of the game besides the story, the soundtrack is so gentle, it's only one song, but it fits for all the endings, it's soft and warm, gentle even, it's like a lullaby to fall asleep to. The art, though a single frame, is stunning, despite being a single CG with simple face alterations, it is able to exceed the emotions they where meant to express, I feel the angst, the fake smiles, simply looking at the piece is able to tear me down, and the writing does a perfect job with letting me imagine the scene, it is so vivid, so heartbreaking, so beautiful.
I applaud everyone who worked on this, as short as it may be, it is perfect, if not, the closest thing to perfection in my eyes. I truly hope their talents do not go to waste, thank you Dev for letting me experience this short story, I will be crying for the next couple of hours.
thank you so much for playing!! i tried to make all the endings feel unique but realistic ^^ there are 3 in total, I hope you'll try that last one too!
Ooooh, it was a bittersweet story, and yet I feel like the tenderness between Ianthe and Maven really shone through! The art was gorgeous, the music very pleasant, and the story was simple, yet it spoke volumes! The trope of letting the one you love go so that they can be happy is one I really cherish, and I think that's why I prefered this ending, but I'm glad the other existed too haha! Thank you for making this game!
Played this like an hour after it was released, first thing in the morning, a great short read. Theo killing my heart at the ass crack of dawn, what a time.

Really spoke to the timing of it all, and what time allowed for the characters as well. Beautiful work!
