A very clever use of the O2A2 word limit! Reminiscing over angsty teenage writing and old shared experiences is a great framing device for these characters to discuss their history and relationship together.
The use of dynamic zooming on the poster to create character sprites and silhouettes within the bounds of the jam was very fun!
Great work!
Thank you so much! I have fond memories doing this with my own friends so I had a lot of fun imagining it for my characters haha.
I'm happy you enjoyed the zooming! I didn't want to make it too dizzying or anything lol. Thanks so much for playing! <3!
