I am an old lady with Alzheimer and I go to an art gallery and look at some art that I find very intriguing. In the end, I found out that I was the artist. No issues that I encountered. I really enjoyed looking at the one painting with the family on the couch but the one member was off in their art studio.
I am an aging adult with Alzheimer's who visits a gallery to look at paintings and then insistently discovers who the painter was. The ending I chose led me to read the name of the artist.
There weren't any aspects which negatively affected my experience.
This version took big, successful steps forward from last week. I enjoyed spending time with the paintings and I'm glad you expanded this part of the game. It had a consistent somber tone where I assumed I knew what was going on but only given ambiguous clues which kept me curious. My assumptions about the identity of the artist from the begin were teased out just enough through the entire game and I was given some resolution which felt satisfying in the end.
I really loved the insistent choices in the text towards the end. They felt very good in context and were implemented very well. Really good work!
It is very beautiful story not remembering who you are but still trying to enjoy life. And building a deep connection to the art only to be his own creation. Even though he forgot he remember the emotion in his pieces. As the story went on it really got me feeling a bit emotional as it continues. I fear of one day forgetting everything. I seen it happen with some relatives. So seeing how it all comes together it's a beautiful tale.
its cool that you got the repeating text at the end working, i think it made the last scene work really well. I also like the story being told through the paintings. I think it would be interesting if there were more to do in the rest of the museum, maybe if you could look at the other paintings in more detail instead of just directing you straight to the main ones?
Wow, i really love the concept of this game. It immediately struck me as emotional and melancholy, and that feeling continued throughout the "true" twist ending. even though I began to anticipate it, I felt myself empathizing with and thinking like the main character still.
i do agree that some of the endings where you can die feel distracting and random when compared to the premise. maybe if you could make them more in line with the game's slow, melancholic feel? but regardless, this game is very impactful and i enjoyed playing it!
The ending is really interesting! I find the entire concept of the game really interesting, as you play as an old person with Alzheimer's going to an art gallery, eventually finding out you were the artist all along. I like that you have to really push to figure out the twist, making the ending more meaningful. I also enjoy the fact that you can decide your own perspective on things (choosing between enthusiasm and "begrudgingly"). Overall, really well written and very interesting :D!!!
I really like this game! The story was very well done, and although I could see the twist coming it still felt satisfying when I got the resolution. I think your choices felt very natural as well, as we could decide for ourselves what kind of outlook our character had. I only wish that our character didn't die in a few of the endings, because I think it detracted from the originally story you were trying to tell. Instead, maybe we just go home feeling unfulfilled?
I like the realistic setting that's very easy to understand, I just want to see some cool art! I appreciate the little hints in how the large paintings feel strangely recognizeable in addition to how you get free admission, because the instant the line about the artist having impacted memory came up I figured out the truth, and it was interesting to see the choices that would either lead you towards the truth or away from it.
I think there could be a little more branching from the choices, instead of both choices almost always leading back to the same result. Maybe something like the way you get out of bed changes your next choice, while all still leading to the art gallery in the end? I don't know how important that would be though, and the game is also nice in how linear it is.
Played as a older person with memory issues who goes to a exhibit to find out they created this art that they forgot about. I really loved how you changed wording towards the ending it feels a lot more impactful

I really enjoyed the narrative in the game, it made me feel empathy. The ending was a shocking experience, but it worked!

I liked the twist at the end.

as per your feedback <3
This is so well done, I was not expecting the plot twist at the end at all.
I really enjoy the melancholic feeling I get while playing this game
