A beautiful sci love story about life beyond mortality, January 30, 2025
Related reviews: less than 15 minutes

This game started off with some timed, animated text which I had no control over. It was on a beautiful starfield and the text was nice, but I was worried that I'd miss something and have to restart since I couldn't go back. So I was expecting that the game would be frustrating or hard to play.

It ended up being really lovely. Only the opening and the ending had missable text like that. The rest of the game was so thoughtful.

In it, you a post-mortal human, your consciousness uploaded into a planet-sized database that preserves your 'self'. The love of your life is also uploaded nearby, and together the two of you count down to the end of the universe.

Most of the game is about reminiscing over your past with your love. At times the choices changed in a way I couldn't understand; it seemed like maybe I could only choose 2 out of 3 memories, which is a nice touch, but I may have just misunderstood how it worked.

Overall, I thought this was sweet, and had fun trying out some of the songs it was based on after.
