We Met in May

We Met in May is a short series of vignettes that look into the lives of developers Nina Freeman and Jake Jeffries! We follow them on a cute, awkward and charming set of dates and basque in the glow of relationships forming, whilst being serenaded by Ryan Yoshikami's sweet, smooth soundtrack (which is totally worth an OST purchase btw!). I had a great time laughing along at the sweet moments the starring couple went through. Related to the sweet, cringey, awkwardness of a couple getting closer to each other, and had some good laughs at some anime-esque over the top scenes (the diamond dust ice queen attack had me in stitches)! This game is for anybody who is down for a unique and small experience that has any interest in the way I just described it! Plus its only a couple of quid, so treat yo'self!

We Met in May is a short game about the nervousness and intoxication of new love. The game is made up of up of 4 bite size segments that range from a beach date to inviting your flame over to your apartment for first time. The weird art style has this dreamy mix of pinks, oranges and whites and it captures the vibe of infatuation perfectly. There isn’t a ton to do here, but if you appreciate games as moods I think you’ll feel something with We Met in May.

Well I liked it.

It's cute.

I finished the thing in like 15mins, but having played some of Nina's other games I already had an idea of what to expect. While I can't honestly say I would have bought it at full price, it's a cute little game and is worth a look if you're fond of the Dev's other stuff; or if you simply agree that there should be more like this about the place from various devs. :-) It was sweet, it was fun, I poured wine (or maybe ketchup) all over a dude at the beach until we were both ready for romantic eye-contact. So as far as I'm concerned, We Met In May was worth what I spent on it. ^_^

A delightfully sweet game.
