The music is lovely, the animation transitions are perfect and the choice of colour palette is perfect but honestly, the central, poignant metaphor of the game is what sells it to me.
In under a minute, the game touches on themes of growth, hardship, hope, impossibility, significance and insignificance.
There is a definite complexity to this simple game that, personally, I cannot praise highly enough. Kudos, and please, keep making games. :)
Other than that a great game :)
Good idea, good realization and graphics. I think you need little more interactive.
A very bleak look on life.
