A nice slice-of-life story about family. I like the slow reveal of the greater setting, and how despite the setting, the story focuses on the down-to-earth nuances of the father-child relationship, just in a place a bit stranger than what we're normally used to. At once relatable (found myself thinking of my own family relationships) and refreshingly alien. Really like the color scheme too.
This story is so beautifully written, I felt so so melancholic but also at peace reading this honestly this is one of the best short stories I have read in a long time I am glad I stumbled across this. Just an amazing piece of writing and I loved every second I spent in your world.
That's really the feeling I get from this. I think that's probably the best I can get. At first, I was having a hard time connecting the song with the game. I thought that it was really only just the similar name and, you know, "space." But it's also the discomfort, that neither song nor game has an ending that we know for certain, left in that vague void of "it is what it is" whether that be an oncoming war or conversations never had.

A really sweet premise.
I would like to see more of this world if you'd ever expand the story 🩷

copying across from my review from the jamI don't know.

I don't know, and I just love it.
