Waiting for her connecting bus, Ella has nothing but time, her own thoughts, and the company of a pianist playing in the flat behind her.

It is also my first solo game! This is my first time posting an original story so I'm very proud of this emotional drabble. I would love to hear your feedback!

Absolutely visually stunning and beautiful!!!

I almost cried. But I'm a big Cat, and big Cats don't cry... 😭😭😭

Ok maybe just a little for this game. Very touching and super impressive that you've managed to tell such a gorgeous story in just 1000 words!??!!?

Awweeee thank you so much!! Big Cats are allowed to cry sometimes too, they need it!
I'm so glad you think so though, the writing and proofing stage was harrowing because I kept toeing the line of the limit (by the end it got to just over 990 between ellipses and changing some menu buttons). It was also a very fun way to learn how to work with persistent data and if else statements to try and condense it as much as possible and still have it flow alright.


Thank you for playing and enjoying it! 💛
