Literally gasped when I heard Tom Lehrer playing on the radio, never expected to find his songs here.
For anyone wondering, the first song you hear when you turn on the radio in the shed is Tom Lerher's "When You Are Old and Gray". Kinda ironic for Maya to listen to imo since she's so afraid of dying
Idk what happens if you choose to "free" Maya but if you take the route of joining her, you'll continue the game as Sera. If you re-enter the shed and turn on the radio, the song that now plays is Tom Lerher's "I Hold Your Hand in Mine". It starts off as a love song but quickly turns dark once you realise the song is sung from the perspective of a man who has killed his lover, cutting off her hand and keeping it as some twisted sort of memorabilia.
Not sure what this implies but I'm assuming the dev just likes Tom Lerher songs (nice taste dev) and decided to just use this one to represent the two lovers reuniting.
Edit: got both endings, this game was beautiful! Although I'm still kinda unsure of Sera's goal. Something that struck out as odd to me is that in the "Join Maya" route, if you go back to the deer carcass as Sera, she says "Im sorry for lying to you" or something along those lines. It was stated earlier that the deer had been consumed by the mycelium so does this suggest that Vivian could hear Sera through any object the mycelium infects?? Idk just seemed cute to me lol. Anyways we lowkey need to get Game Theory on this
this story was actually relatable on a next level
I literally saw myself in Vivian(am a dude btw)
part 2 coming soon
"it is nice to understand you a bit better now, even if i dont understand you at all."
a nice, short, bittersweet game. i was there too. but im happy they were reborn to look at lolita fashion drops... the art and snowy setting were very nice.
Loved the game, Loved the art, Loved the story and aesthetic, You did very well on it, Quickly becoming a setting I often think about now actually, I love the music as well, Good job!
i cried.
this game has by far one of the best visuals i've seen in a long while. the vibe is amazing, and everything looks sooo cool!!! it holds your eye in a way that's hard to explain. i especially loved sera, her design is as hypnotizing as her personality.
the story is simple, but great. it touched subjects im quite familiar with. it really is hard to love while being mentally ill, but there's no cheat code for that, really. the idea of an escape to a place where you don't gotta talk to understand each other sounds nightmarish to me. being your own person is step 1 to getting better at this relationship thing.
i loved the mechanics, too. im really used to games that you can play with just your mouse, so suddenly finding myself in a game that's controlled by enter/space and the arrows got me a bit nostalgic. lol
overall an amazing experience!!
I really enjoyed the game. Vivian represents guilt, Sera represents acceptance, (although questionable) and Maya represents reunion. You accept this game as a dream or reality is up to you. Either way, the story was written good and the game was also cute and funny.
This was such an INCREDIBLE game, and has absolutely become an inspiration for me as a gamedev. Not only are the character designs and aesthetics so immediately gripping and memorable (I gotta draw them...I wanna draw themmm...), but the characterization was done perfectly (so many details shared in natural ways, that explained so much and helped them feel so Real and relatable), the writing was so atmospheric and cool, and the emotional arcs of each cutscene and ending was impeccable. I swear I was near tears every cutscene, just because they were so human and well-written and aaauuugh.
Great game. Fantastic game. Ended up rebooting it after both endings to find all the dialouge I'd accidentally missed. Aaaaaaugh. And they are in love!! And it's flawed but it's real and beautiful!!! Aaaaaaaaaa. God. Game. Good game. Game of the Ever.
Thank you so much!! T_T i appreciate all of your thoughts i will hold them close to my heart
this was so good! i loved both endings, a great game for a little bit of free time ♪(´▽`)
this game is so adorable. i like the body horror elements, especially the skinned deer. cool game, 10/10 would recommend it to other people=)
Thank you this sparks joy
this was so adorable and heartfelt. loved it!
cool game. 1/1
pretty intersting game. Enjoyed the body horror elements of it will definently check out your other work.
this was GORGEOUS and nearly made me cry
so good!!
LOVE THIS! the art style, the music, the whole story is breathtaking and kind of a cliffhanger in a way, LUV!
I deeply enjoyed this game. Such good visuals and story of a binding relationship and being dependent on one another, and expession of the need for open communication in relationships.
this was so good!!!!!!!!!! i rly liked the gameplay and mechanics along with the dialogue
this game made me very emotional, so much so I started crying. it was really beautiful
This feels so personal, very touching and amazing game. Hits a bit too close, though :(
just wow, im speechless
in a good way ofc
I like this game so much!
Really cute game
Fabulous game:3
this was amazing, holy molly!! Everything was lovely, from the characters to the art to the story to the banger OST <3
this is awesome!
for some reason it kinda reminded me of shimeji simulation.
so fun, I love it. <3 One of the endings really got my heart!
reminded me a lot of old feelings! almost nostalgic, haven't played a game that gave me this feeling in a while!! I love it
((ost is amazing, and omg tom lehrer!! I know him from his masochism tango song. This old and grey might be a second favorite now!!)) edit darn he passed today 7/27 :(
this game has a unique idea
this is absolutely not what i expected to find while randomly looking through itch at 2 am, but i'm glad i found this! it's a really cool short kinda experience :)
I really liked this game!
This game had a beautiful artstyle <3
This was very cute. One thing I forgot to say in the vid was that I really liked how chill/realistic the dialogue felt. Keep up the great work. Lemme hit that follow rq
I just had to use Sera's face as the thumbnail. She's so funny to me. Please use her in the future haha

Like the song. Please let me play with WSAD! :D
Oh thank you! This is interesting to me. I actually didn't realize WASD didn't work. I'll look into this!
dam, the title and song that plays during it really made me think this game was gonna be way scarier then it ended up being. Still a great little experience tho, 4.5/5
whats the name of the song that plays in the shed?
The entire OST is here in order of each song that appears!
thank you!
It's such a cute game!! :) I love all the character designs!!
Loved this. The atmosphere felt very surreal and unnerving throughout and the slow realizations and visual reveals were really well delivered. The costume design is iconic. I think you nailed the balance of horror and cute so well.
Spoilers
Seeing Maya’s reveal was like a “woah”, and a “WOAH” and a “T^T cute” at the same time lol
I also like how you handled the different endings, how there really was no way they were ever getting out of there, but they’re also not bad endings either. Once again striking a really interesting balance of emotions.
Awesome work!
Thank you Bean T_T Seeing you go through so much of my game catalogue has been pleasant. Horror and cute is everything to me, and I love to put my characters in cute clothes. I'm also happy you find her appearance satisfying T_T
It was my first time making a game with multiple endings since I was in high school and it was fun!! I have specific rules for myself when it comes to making things with multiple endings, so it was fun to follow them. I want to do it again.. someday.
this was so cutes... a very fun, short play!
