Short but sweet experience, I like how it invites us to create a poem to for "someone". It's never said who. It might be the character portrayed in the game, or it might not be. And the handwritten lines give it a nice personal DIY feel.
Thanks! I really like this physical approach to making digital games, might make more in the future.
The music and singing really elevates the atmosphere of this game, along with the props in the photos. If I had to nitpick - I went in with the expectation that the lines I picked would be compiled to show a full poem at the end. Either way, though, I had a lovely experience playing this! What a treat for the eyes and ears :)
I really wanted to, but Downpour has no conditional logic. In order to show the whole poem I have to go through and photograph every possible combination (which is totally doable given the small amount of lines). Alas, I fell sick and had to contend with merely finishing.
Thank you for giving this a try, glad to hear you had a lovely time :)
