Glorious game. Tight controls, poetic storyline mixed with in-genius metaphorical puzzles related to the poetry lines, and a little dash of puzzle hidden underneath it all. 5/5.

It's okay, but games like Braid or on a more similar level "I saw her standing there" and "The company of myself" (on this website) do the same things much better. Where those games use the narrative as a metaphor for gameplay, this one just literally tells you what you have to do ("she usually jumped over spikes"). I'm not saying the puzzles are bad, they are alright, a bit too easy if it weren't for the slightly unresponsive controls. Overall, cute little game, but not original or remarkable in any way.

Been trying to finish the second 'running away' level, but can't, because she pushes the box over the cliff, then runs too fast to land on it and dies. Is this a glitch?

really simple and a bit too easy. Although the games strong point is likely supposed to be the art aspect of it, its not great even in that respect. music and graphics are nice though.

Created an account just to review this game.
Its a perfect little indie game. You can see the influence from Braid and Limbo, but its different enough to not feel like a copy.
You don't know much about the characters, but it still tugs at your heart strings. The last level seriously gave me butterflies.
Just beautiful

Hi, I am a first time developer and I have designed a similar story-game. I would be really thankful for the feedback :)

I think that when your girlfriend starts running into spikes when she sees you, it's time for a different girlfriend.

Nice art and such, but some levels are too dark and some things seems to not be working. And as I said in previous post, screen size is fixed so everything is VERY small on bigger monitor/resolutions. 3/5 because of lack of essential features and common sense.

Screen size is fixed, why? It should scale with the kongregate frame... Zooming in doesn't make a difference, the window size is so small it's difficult to see what's going on. I know many other older games have this problem as well, but this is from oct 2011, so just wow... wtf? Needs to be fixed, so the game can be played on bigger monitors as well.
