Depth of Moments by LDJam user 413537

[raw]
made by LDJam user 413537 for Ludum Dare 57 (JAM)

Depth can mean many things. Some might think of oceans. Others — of dungeons, the mind, or something more mystical. We weren’t sure at first either — until we stumbled upon our version of it: the depth of a moment.

This is a story about memories. Small, warm, awkward, important. Sometimes almost forgotten, but somehow still precious. The kind that stay with us and quietly keep us warm on especially cold nights.We wanted to make a game about simple things — sitting by the fire, burning marshmallows, a guitar that’s still not quite in tune. Because it’s these little, imperfect, sometimes silly moments that bring out the truest emotions — and become the mosaic of our lives.

Sure, we only had three days, and we didn’t manage to build everything we imagined. But we focused on what mattered most: the atmosphere. The kind you don’t explain with words. The kind that lives in the tiniest details. We hope you can feel it too.

We created and animated a lot more than what made it into the 3-day jam build — including music, sounds, and a full UI that just didn’t fit in time. Still, we’re excited to keep working on the game, add everything we made, and even expand it further. The idea is pretty ambitious, and we’re proud of how much we pulled off with such attention to detail. If you see potential in it, your support means the world. Thanks so much for all the kind words!
