I've made a similar, almost linear, LD entry in the past, where the main goal was to convey a message and there wasn't very much gameplay either, tho a bit more than this.\n\nThe atmosphere and the mood is definitely there. I think I get what it's about, and even recognise it a bit, but it's not blatantly obvious and I cannot know for sure whether I've interpreted it correctly, and I assume that's a bit of the point: a way for you to get something out, possibly attracting those who are able to catch the drift, and not necessarily anybody else.\n\nCombination of great presentation and mood but lack of much of a game. An interesting entry. Well done!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Yami no tenshi 8","author_uid":"1012396","time":"2017-05-06T10:26:17Z","epoch":1494066377,"modified":1494066401,"text":"As said in the previous comment, it's not easy to rate this entry. :astonished:\n\nIt was a bit hard to understand what was happening in this sort of glass ball...","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Dev Dennis","author_uid":"1009182","time":"2017-05-06T10:51:12Z","epoch":1494067872,"modified":1494067872,"text":"I think it's a brave entry, and it was a nice story. It's hard to capture the player with these kind of experiences, maybe if you added more music and sound clues to the context, that would help with immersion.\n\nCool entry none the less.

I was pressing right and left as the instructions said, trying to figure out if I was having any effect on the displayed graphics (it didn't seem like it). If that's intentional, I'd recommend against\n it. If it's not, and it's not just some weird issue with my browser (which it most certainly could be), then you might want to start with some sort of \"loading\" message; I almost quit before it even actually started. That said, it's entirely possible it's a problem on my end that no one else run into, in which case, please ignore the preceding paragraph.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"CabbageCrow","author_uid":"1014018","time":"2017-05-19T12:53:02Z","epoch":1495198382,"modified":1495198383,"text":"You could call it maybe a linear visual novel?\n\nEven if it is a \"not-game\" it still has its place here.
