Mind Garden

Loved the art, music, and story. Such a wholesome beautiful little story. Love the characters and ending. Defiantly some sad parts to it. Overall such a great game!

An earnest game about coming-of-age and accepting the good and bad in life. I liked it. Are there issues? Sure. There are places where the game could be a bit more polished. I had to look up a playthrough to find the dog. The fish wouldn't spawn for me until I reloaded my save. But the whole is the kind of experience I love in games. A deeply personal reflection on the developers life. Told through a really endearing hand drawn artstyle intersticed by home videos giving a glimpse into moments and people important to them.

A very heartfelt story about trauma, loss, growth, and finding your place in the world! The game does a very good job of guiding you through the narrative by having you complete quests for a group of very whimsical and memorable friends! The art-style is very nostalgic, and fits the narrative very well as it looks like a project/drawing that a child would make for their art-class! [spoiler]I hope we can see Carrot happy again one day, absolutely heartbroken seeing him like that in the end. [/spoiler] Can't wait for the dev's future projects! :) P.S. I apologize for the delay in reviewing the game! My Windows died and I lost all my save data for this game, along all others, plus the past few months have been quite hectic at work. And I didn't want to put out a half-hearted review.
