Enchant is right, as he gets more and more gifts for her, he fades more and more. It's a beautiful and brilliant game... and very sad.

"Sorry if I haven't made any thing. But lately nothing has been coming to my mind. It's like when I try to make music, this sort of emptiness emerges and just fills my mind to a point where I just give up on it entirely. Well I gave it a shot.
In my mind I tried to imagine a looming terminal illness that can affect you. I imagine an old man dying in December with a 1000 stories, but no family or friends to tell it to. Kind of like how this musical dry spell feels like, but, theres always a little hope.
Any ways this is going out to you. Enjoy" BY SHADOW6NOTHING9

great game, but the music is trying a bit to hard to convey the sad emotion of the game. I don't need a super sad piano to tell me how to feel the entire game.

Well critique like this is pretty nihilistic, but I think with a careful selection of the *items* this piece would be more complete, personally I find that the mundane items sort of take away from the idea. But I don't know.. Perhaps this negativity says more about me than the game, same probably goes for the rest of you.

Art is open for interpretations. I think a lot of these comments show that people could find their view of what's going on here, perhaps telling more about their views of life than the game itself. Personally I didn't get this feeling, maybe not having sound has something to do with it, and probably also happening to guess that you'd be filling in the colors by the time the colored arrows showed up. I think the explanation that the boy has died and the girl is slowly starting to enjoy life again fits very well, and I think that makes this pretty good too. I don't the think the suggested symbolisms for the cycle of life are very fitting though, flower at the gravestone.. Life after death seems pretty good there, luck or hope sounds good too, but I don't know about the rest, seems more like collecting random items. Also happened to collect them in random order.

maybe the character is her loved one..maybe..the girl forgot about his love? maybe so the mementos should be the memories,he wanted the girl to remember him?..then she remembered he died?,maybe

i feel as though this could also be symbolic of an abused woman or even man letting go of someone they thought they loved, that over time they realized the gifts did not have as much meaning and that they were being held down by them out of guilt or something else. and at the end the tombstone represents letting the feelings die, and not being obsessed over the other. in part it feels like its actually the guy letting go at times, and other times it feels like the girl is. just my perception

Incredible. This game has so much symbolism through the colors and the bird and the flower and so on, this game is just so much bigger than itself. It's inspiring. I love it.

It'll probably be like I took this from the people above, but I thought this as I played throughout the game. The more items you give to the girl, the more you move around, the more you see the shadows behind the boy. I love these kinds of games. They're amusing to play, and once you figure out the story like a puzzle, it has a feeling of sadness and happiness mixed together into a item of colors. 5/5. The game lagged a tiny bit, but I thought that the more items you gave to the girl, the more you started to disappear. Good game, my friend. Good game.

This game honestly makes me so sad to think about the whole concept. Very fulfilling game tho. These games do need their own category
