The Graveyard

"The Graveyard" is not a Game and lasts less than ten Minutes. The Programming is weak, the Graphics are old baked, Gameplay practically does not exist. Very Few Will be able to do anything with it at all. And yet I have to take a positive view of it, because it has touched me, even though many may find it ridiculous.

And she's still sitting there, dead, motionless, an empty Shell. Nothing happens, no one discovers them, no one comes over, their Bodies just sit there, lonely, abandoned in the Cemetery, left alone by the world. We begin to think about life, about death, about Loneliness, about Our Loved ones. And then we leave the Program, forget it, live our Lives on. After a few Weeks we might start it again, because it doesn't quite get out of our Heads and ... ... The old Lady is still sitting there, just the way we left her. The Wind goes, the Birds chirp, removes a Dog barks. Nothing has changed, no one has found it in the Meantime, no one has cared about her ...
