this was so so sweet and made me so nostalgic. i love how hopeful and happy the ending was, but i almost didnt want it to end lol it felt like i lived a brief but whole life with these characters!
i spent so much of my formative years on a now-defunct (</3) roleplaying website so this game was super sweet and nostalgic for me T__T even though the story was so brief i feel like it'll really stick in my brain for a long time. loved your character writing and loved the early 2000s internet atmosphere (if you ever make a sequel ill be sprinting to download it)
god the way this made me SOB!!! eerily reminiscent of childhood and the late-game identity talk with your sister and bee really hit me in the heart. I've been working on a similar neopets unfiction clone with time jumps and seeing your execution of a similar concept was a delight. beautiful game, thank you for sharing.
This was really something special. The writing as the characters grow is so well done and there's a VERY nostalgic moment with a loading map that took me right back to the early 2000s'. As someone who also grew up RPing with a friend, this felt so genuine.
I played this A while back as part of a bundle and it is the only game of the bundle I distinctly remember. There’s just something about this one that stuck in my brain! I feel like it’s the best example of how indie games feel like a look straight into someone’s heart and are so incredibly personal and yet widely relatable and intimate. I loved this game!
i played this game with my boyfriend today!!! we were so invested, we had to keep going even though he had to go to bed. it's like 3:40 in the morning for him.
the characters were really sweet and relatable, i love how respectful bee was to K. one thing tho, i wish there was a dark mode and a button to play back the sound instead of it looping. when i was trying to read the dialogue, the looping kinda got to me and i struggled with reading a bit
either way this was a super enjoyable experience, super cute story and i really liked it! we both did! keep on making great things :D
ohhh my god. this was an amazing game!! this hit so personally. like. the rping, the online relationships, all of that made me cringe at my own old memories where i was an unsupervised child on the internet.
but god!!! i love them. bee and kayla deserve the world and i wish ruffians was a real thing </3
I did not know that game that looks innocent like this could go so under my skin, holy sheet I'm crying. It was how protagonist is same age than me and that chatting felt so familiar.
Only critique is that I needed to zoom out so I could see "mouse" cursor fully. Don't know is that problem from my or your side.
i just finished this, and i love it!!! also, for those who got it through the palestinian aid bundle: you're gonna have to manually download the game through the site, since it plays in your browser!
thoroughly charming game. i had the biggest smile on my face watching the relationship between those two grow

I went into this game with no information whatsoever outside of the description and as soon as I'll stop crying I'll recommend it to everyone thanks

The story absolutely broke my heart! But still love the nostalgia for the old times browsing the internet.
Tysm for the video! Your summary in the description is perfect. Really appreciated your vid on Eyewear Cleaner 2077 as well.

Tysm! & I've wanted to make a sequel since I finished this game tbh! I would love to continue Kayla & Bee's story someday.
Seems good, but the images arent loading for me.
That's very strange. What browser are you using?
Chrome.

Your game was one of my favorites this year, and it ended up in article about my fav itch.io games of the year! It's in finnish, but thought you would like to know this: https://geekgirls.fi/wp/blog/2021/12/20/indie-pelien-ihmemaassa/
Thank you so much! That's very kind of you. <3

(ofc it can be planned but I was confused where I should click first)
(offers tissues) Aw, thanks so much! <3 I appreciate that a lot.
& can you send me a screenshot of what the game looks like on your end?
Just like this! i think this is intentional? I was just confused first :D "why this new user button doesn't work????... oh....."
Oh, gotcha! Yeah, I could have designed that better. I'll keep that in mind for my next game!
i just finished this, and i love it!!! also, for those who got it through the palestinian aid bundle: you're gonna have to manually download the game through the site, since it plays in your browser!
