Good job! I really enjoyed the story and overall aesthetic. The lighting was nice, and I loved the camera move and darkening of the background going into each memory.
Everything in this is so fantastic! The style is so wonderfully unique, and the art. sounds and story come together to make a really great experience. Everyone knocked it out of the park with this! :)
Thank you!!
