This game has a very special place in my heart.

All of Antonio games, have this kind of thing of where, each one has something unique that shines and gets stuck with you, and 'It Comes In Waves' is no different, and is probably my favorite of them all.

It's been years since I've lost the love of my life, and personally, I don't think it's getting any better, but this game touched my soul, it represented in a artistic way, what grief is, in a way that can only be done through a video game.

And the game is completely accurate. After I lost her, my world became dull, tasteless, like I had lost half of me, the entire world feels like one huge desert ever since. Unwanted, guilty, I feel like an outcast, wandering through an empty land on automatic mode, eating and drinking water just to survive. Where the only thing keeping me company are strangers and the sound of nature.

Other people don't get it, they think that it's easy or that I should live for myself but, I can't. I can't forget, I can't hide what she meant to me, I can lie and smile and make jokes and tell that everything is alright, when deep down, I feel desolated. The only person that truly loved me, the only person that understood how I am as a person, is now gone.

And even in the end of the world, I would still walk, I would still celebrate what she did to me and I would still, grow a flower in her memory, it is the least that, I, a person still alive, can do.


Thanks Antonio Freyre, for creating this game. I will never forget it.
