This is such a sad but wholesome game about a couple who are trying to have a relationship long distance and the struggles they are having because of the distance. It's a short game but the puzzles with folding paper are interesting and I found some of them to be challenging, others easy. The music is a bit melancholy but also somehow soothing. I loved the LGBTQ rep and being able to choose the gender(s) of the characters in the story. In general it gave me the vibes of a Pixar movie but felt like a unique take on a story-based/narrative game and I rather enjoyed it.

A charming little puzzle game with the story of a long distance relationship. Captures the emotions and struggles perfectly. Not the best game I’d say but a decent one to add to the list. Plays beautifully on steam deck aswell! 💖

Os puzzles têm uma proposta interessante, até a mecânica de andar e conversar no telefone eu curti. Mas meu deus que história sofrida. Parece escrita por adolescente. Exageradamente dramático num nível que faz os puzzles ficarem chatos por associação. Não foi divertido, só fui até o fim por causa dos achievements e sabia que era curtinho. Acho que as questões de insegurança, "second thoughts" e afins poderiam ainda ter sido trabalhadas mas de uma maneira mais orgânica.

I remember playing this game on my switch when it came out and fell in love with it. It is a very clever game and not more of the same. I wish they added an expansion or something to continue the story and have more levels. The game is not too long and so cute. If they ever did a second game of a part 2 would for sure play it as well.

captures the long distance relationship struggles perfectly. i found myself here and everytime i felt heard, seen. i liked how there are any type of genders. puzzles are getting harder and harder but they put the solutions which also completes the puzzles for you. it's aesthetic is really cute. 10/10 i'd say.
