What a nice little, sad game. Really enjoyed the plot, the construction, the way it develops and the music. Got intrigued by the story.
Sometimes I got stuck in the letters for a while, not sure why. Maybe it's just the slowness of the whole thing.
As a musician, I miss another theme for the historian and the letters screen. 
Congratulations! Very good job!

Thank you! Agreed there's definitely room for tuning the game up if we had the time.

Ohhh I play a little the genere of graphic adventures (because I like more interaction), in this case I should congrats the piece of art you made, I love the end, because I dont wait for it, the last family draw was great!!! do you publish it in any web? Instagram? DeviantArt?

Ok now I will to make opinion about bad things: because the game is strongly based on dialog texts, ok it has the name of the character that talk, but I think is more intuitive if plus of it, the bubble change something, color, position, line that points to head of character, etc; it will make more confortable because is not a book; optionaly the face of characters can be in left or right (is classic).
