The font? The art style? The fluidity on a mobile device? It's fantastic. I wasn't able to deliver packages but I was too mesmerized to be mad about that. Beautiful game. Kudos. Edit: I did figure it out and completed all the deliveries. So many potential. It reminds me a bit of Sky by thatgamecompany Edit 2: for the author, I noticed several players approached me and tried to communicate. Please explore games like J…

I also didn't really understand how to do it, but I liked the game, it's so beautiful and peaceful, it's a shame there's no chat and you have to speak through emojis.

Some people have an arrow on top of their head, and when you approach them there is a dialog balloon with "...". If you click on them they give you a task.

Stuck at loading screen for a few minutes. Hugged by HN?

not likely to be your problem, but if you are using firefox resist fingerprinting, you need to whitelist most webgl apps that use large textures, since resist fingerprinting forces a standard texture size that is a bit on the small side. or maybe your machine is really old and you're hitting same problem for real. the game doesn't really detect errors.

Agreed with everything said here about the beauty. I found the camera controls pretty clumsy though. I played in portrait, landscape probably would work better.

Yeah the camera's horrible. I found myself snaking left and right just trying to walk in a straight line.
