I just saw the top-down angle and went from there

Wow, I’d never heard of this. The writing is exceptional for a game of this time. I love the melancholy mood. I’m kind of getting an Italo Calvino feeling from some of it.

The poet in the game was an actual writer guy and the stories are based on stuff he wrote

Yeeeee

You can buy a translation of kenji miyazawa’s Ihatov short stories today! He is amazing. Please watch Night on the Galactic Railroad it is the greatest anime film ever made

As I am already a Kenji Miyazawa fanatic and am broadly familiar with many of his works, would folks be interested in me streaming this game?
