This was lovely! Enjoyed this in particular and love the concept of having a VN that's like a minute long, like a beautiful, impactful single scene.
this game makes me long for smth but idk what. Maybe a nice sunset to watch on a rooftop.
this ruled!! dont think ive ever seen a super short form VN like this and it definitely made a lasting impression. the atmosphere/visuals were rly strong and showed how much you can do with so little in this medium
You are the shortest visual novel EVER!!
Short, sweet, and simply gets a poignant point across like poetry. Love it!
This hurt, I loved it
speedrun
(i really enjoyed this)
:( .... (complimentary) wistful and evocative and bittersweet.
wonderful, beautiful, elegant
This really does feel like poetry. The music and gentle background and animation helps to sell the mood very well.
There's just enough here to give you something to chew on, while leaving so much to the imagination in filling in the gaps, like listening to a friend and you don't know if you should press further. A wonderful concept to tell a story in 100 words.
A beautiful, poignant poem of a VN; it put a bittersweet but deeply warm smile on my face, heheheh~ It does exactly what it sets out to do without wasting a single word, and it makes excellent use of the medium as it does so. Stellar work here, for sure~
visual novel poetry!!! so cool. i really thought this was very affecting in a nice little package. love the low poly look too. thank you for sharing!
feels nice the ending of a game, very cool!
Oh this is so lovely and bittersweet. I really like how the length of the game made space for you to lean into having animation for atmosphere and pacing, and fitting something within exactly 100 words is honestly a serious challenge and an art.
Reads like a little poem. Absolutely lovely, and honestly a bit crushing. A very old girlfriend of mine smoked.
touching story with beautiful presentation, thank you for making this
it may be 100 words, but it uses them masterfully. the presentation was off the walls for this. loved the little 3d models.
Said what there was to say and then stopped: beautiful.
One of those short little moments that leave an impact. Sometimes we miss the things that left nothing but cigarette dust behind. Thank you for sharing this
Lovely little game, great vibes!
wish i didnt have a throat infection rn so i could burn one with her :c
The vibes for this game was great and I enjoyed it a lot even if it was short. It's memorable and concise. Thank you.
a smoky little heart-shaped capsule. loved this.
wow. yeah. a lovely little poem, short yet lasting
100 words, but yeah it hits.
whoa.....
beautiful <3
Short, but uses that to its advantage. Every piece of it contributes to its thoughtful longing, left me with a lot of questions (in a good way) both about specifics of the situation in the game, and about myself and what these 100 words and addiction bring up for me.
Best experienced when everyone is asleep and you should be too, but I'm biased. Wonderfully intimate little experience.
This was cute!
i enjoyed this, it's like a poem~
100 words and it doesn't need a single one more. It reads like a blog post, a diary entry. Lovely.
absolutely lovely. it's easy to forget just how few words it takes to convey a feeling, and it's a feeling you've hit dead-on.
