I can't reach the stars

Story:

A writer struggling through his lingering feeling of saudade has to find it in himself to finally let go of the one he once held dear... of what was, and look ahead... to what could be.

Features:

• Down-to-earth tale about connection, belonging, and letting go
• Interactive and cinematic narrative experience delivered through different forms of storytelling
• Three minigame gameplays that follow the concept of ludo-narrative resonance

Developer:

• Writing and programming for the game was done by me, Cheah Sze Vern
• Feel free to contact me for any inquiries at [email protected]
