move on takes place in the same location over many, many years. You see it all: birth, life, love, death, in tiny fragments that you leaf through like a photo album. Some are sad. Some are short. Some are painful.

Lovely story and graphics! I included it in my Ludum Dare 38 compilation [video series](https://youtu.be/2umBRLlsy2g), if you’d like to take a look :)

I am amazed by the amount of work put into this entry, literally, how many words have you written and how many drawings have you made over the course of 3 days in my favorite dark-mooded themes... It's incredible!

Take in consideration that there's an issue with sliding the scrollbar in some areas, as a single click, which is needed to move it up or down, advances the story thus increasing the number of fragments required to read at a single time. It can quickly become too cumbersome to navigate the screen, even though sentences stop appearing after their limit is out.

This is beautiful, both the words and the art behind them. Great interpretation of the theme, too. Some of the tonal shifts caught me off guard - I happened to go from one of the more somber ones to the "rug" piece and it kind of made my morning. Nice work!

Thanks for the lovely comments :).

@eveningwayard: It's nearly 10k words that Kate wrote in half of Saturday (I still don't understand how). And thanks for the feedback about the scrolling. I changed the way it worked last minute and it could have done with a bit more rigour.
