I am usually chatty in my comment but THIS left me with a sense of astonishment. Three words I could describe the experience through the platform autumn forest are : serene, picteresque, and nostalgic :')
"Here, you spend an afternoon with your kindly grandmother who guides you on a walk — collecting mushrooms for supper, and offering advice for your challenges in coming of age."

Normally games don't do what this did to me. Life is strange or the witcher 3 (I know they are completely different games) didn't envoke the amount of emotions this game did. My grandmother is very dear to me and she is still alive. And this game made me realise I am not spending enough time with her. Thanks for opening my eyes.
One of those fantastic art experiences that combines opposite emotions to great effect. Both beautiful and melancholy, both intimately and expansive, together in poetic game.
does not fullscreen well on my laptop, very blurry and hard to read text. I know you're trying to go for a low res look via 240p but typically it's better to upscale than to force a low resolution.
This tugged at my feelings in all different kinds of ways. My grandma was very dear to me as, well. You can tell the deep story of real life events taking place in this game. My heart dropped when she grew up and, it was winter I thought she lost her grandma but, thankfully she called her on the phone!
Lieve Oma is your lovely, warm, no bullshit significant adult helping you navigate the hurts of life with foraging trips to the woods, gentle piano tracks and hot chocolate. I played it a couple of months after my own grandmother died and it brought back many feelings. Only negative is the English felt clunky at times, but maybe that's just how Grandma talks.
I've been anticipating playing this for a good part of the year, waiting until the leaves around my town turn red, orange, yellow... this was wonderful, and I did cry. Thank you so much.
