cute short game with a message at the end, controls a little off with controller due to no diagonal movement, no invert Y so had to use steam settings to change this, not a big problem, short but enjoyable.

The poor kid died more times goofing around in her own home-world than she did when there were things actually trying to hurt her. A skill issue on my part, or a testament to the violence of poverty? Probably both.

Ok, the river level is super frustrating and is a real experience killer.

Curto, mas bacaninha, que o mundo sobreviva à ganância humana.

I really like the core idea behind this game—how humanity’s actions actively shape the world around us. Even without experiencing the full story yet, that element already stands out and makes the experience feel meaningful and dynamic. From a gameplay perspective, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. On the plus side, the game is short and respects your time, which I genuinely appreciate. However, some technical and visual issues hold it back. Certain areas are extremely dark—so much so that I had to increase my monitor brightness just to see what was happening, which ended up breaking immersion more than enhancing the atmosphere. I also ran into a frustrating issue with the resolution settings. Every time I tried to switch to windowed 1280×720, the game would automatically revert to 1920×1080. Overall, the game shows a lot of promise. The ideas are strong, and there’s a solid foundation here, but it could really benefit from additional polish and technical improvements. I’m looking forward to seeing how they refine their work in future projects.
