It is said where the forgotten go, they gather in song. High away and through foggy mists — they can be found, after all. Come see.


Controls

WASD - Move

IJKL - Camera

Space - Jump

E - Talk to NPCs

B - Fade to memory (this will end the game)


Inspirations

This is heavily inspired by the marvelous Discone by pondlife, whose rough-hewn level design has been filling my brain with happiness for a while :) (also inspired by their flower mechanic!)

Ian's Graveyard Game (to which I owe the logic for google sheets integrations!)

The radical openness of sylvie games (probably especially Cactus Block on adventure)

The Island of Misfit Toys, which devastated me as a kid haha

Note: I've no idea if the Mac build works...you'll need an internet connection regardless!

lovely! wonderful moment of realization after I fell through the ground and then decided to try out the 'b' key. Music choice makes for a very nice atmosphere.
