wow.. what a fantastic game with a really cool concept! plays on the idea that life passes you by like a blink of an eye and literally presents that idea in a game form. wont spoil too much, but you explore memories and blink (literally) your way through your past life.

regarding the whole blinking mechanic, this was the main reason i was interested in this game to begin with. i think they pulled it off perfectly. it just feels organic and perfect for a game like this, blink and it's all gone just like that, rewarding you with more story/context if you are able to keep your eyes open for long enough. i think i had way too much fun with it. when you have to focus on not blinking it makes you want to blink even more, and you really start to notice the urge to blink. if you decide to keep your eyes open for one part you're using all your mental strength and for the next part you're risking not being able to keep your eyes open for as long and if you're not engaged enough you'll feel the urge to blink, for me i found it hard to keep my eyes open when i had to think about it and i think i enjoyed that aspect way too much.
in general tho, i just love the way you pass through your life at the blink of an eye and i thought was really fun and clever, makes the game feel way more personal.

it's a heart wrenching story that was serviceable enough that you're more than likely to at least shed a tear. haven't had a good cry in a while, this definitely let it all out. this game left me feeling broken and teaches a very important lesson about living life and parenting.

one of the most fascinating and touching games in a while, do yourselves a favour and spend a nice evening on this game, it only takes like an hour or so. you wont regret it <3
