Beschrijving

An immersive, narrative experience that retells Joel Green’s 4-year fight against cancer through about two hours of poetic, imaginative interaction that explores themes of faith, hope and love.

"This is where we go to remember our son Joel, up through here along this path. We want to show you who he was, and how his life changed us. Can we walk here together for a while?"

A videogame developer's love letter to his son; a memorial to Joel Green; an interactive tribute to the loved ones of over 200 of our Kickstarter backers. Can you find hope in the face of death?

Gameplay:
Using a mix of first-person and third-person perspective, and simple point-and-click interaction, we invite the player to slow down, look around, and immerse themselves in this deeply personal memoir.

Featured in:
NY Times, NPR, Wired Magazine, Radiolab, Reply All Podcast, The New Yorker, The Guardian, and many others

"A remarkable piece of work that challenges everything I thought I knew about grief, hope and faith." -The Telegraph

Versie 1.0.4

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

This is a minor update that softens a few rough edges, especially about text getting cut off, dealing with icons, and touch areas on smaller devices. We also found a bug that caused the iPad mini sensitivity to feel far too high, so we brought it in line with the rest of the devices.

Meeslepend en confronterend

Nog niet eerder heeft een game mij zo prachtig en confronterend meegenomen in een verhaal. Het heeft me echt geraakt om zo dicht op de huid van twee mensen te zitten die zich door een donker en heftig scenario moeten werken. Roerend en emotioneel pittig, deze 'game'.
