Mind Garden

This handmade game has a cute and charming atmosphere. It is a very personal piece of art, crafted by someone who has just begun transitioning into adulthood. The author called this game their Memoir and "the result of zelda, lana del rey, my Catholic faith, my weird childhood". To say it in a videogamedunkey fashion, it's the first memoir-type game I've played, and I'm glad I did. If you're feeling like it, I invite you to visit the garden as well. Cast your own feelings and experiences onto it. Make the most of this hour-long spiritual journey.

so so cute! i love the sounds effects, animation, and especially the writing. after reading through your devlog i'm glad to see you were able to overcome the many hurdles that make up game development and make it to the point of release. be proud of your art :) -nocaps

Loved the art, music, and story. Such a wholesome beautiful little story. Love the characters and ending. Defiantly some sad parts to it. Overall such a great game!

It manages to be both whimsical and sad. Clearly, a very personal story

A very heartfelt story about trauma, loss, growth, and finding your place in the world! The game does a very good job of guiding you through the narrative by having you complete quests for a group of very whimsical and memorable friends! The art-style is very nostalgic, and fits the narrative very well as it looks like a project/drawing that a child would make for their art-class! [spoiler]I hope we can see Carrot happy again one day, absolutely heartbroken seeing him like that in the end. [/spoiler] Can't wait for the dev's future projects! :) P.S. I apologize for the delay in reviewing the game! My Windows died and I lost all my save data for this game, along all others, plus the past few months have been quite hectic at work. And I didn't want to put out a half-hearted review.
