Remnants is about a person going deeper and deeper into a hole, discovering remnants of the past and other mildly weird things. It creates a strong and creepy atmosphere with very little, thanks in part to the excellent execution on the sound and art design. The context bubbles the player gets when interacting with the environment create a good sense of character and also develop the game's world + narrative quite well. I love the title/name each room is given (reminds me VVVVVV). The bold and vivid colors create both an alien-like an nostalgic scenery.

While I would've wished for a more fleshed-out/fulfilling ending (or perhaps a crumpet of gameplay), I enjoyed this experience quite well.
