This was quite lovely. But can someone explain the adventure time reference? I never watched the whole show, but I thought I was playing some kind of future in that universe, but the ending made me confused.
I think the only AT reference here is that the friend's name is Jake and he loves sandwiches so it's not like the same world or anything like that. But yeah, the show affected me when I made this for the jam :)
A short, sweet game with a sprinkling of point-and-click, I really enjoyed my time with it: Between the stylized pixel art, the music, and the breezy dialogue, it had a calming, relaxing atmosphere for me, with an almost Ghibli-like magical slice-of-life feel throughout. The idea of a peaceful train ride with interesting but friendly passengers seems completely out of reach in my slice of time and space, so it was a pleasant bit of escapism, and the little hints of worldbuilding, and about the other passengers on the train, really made the game feel like a quick peek into a more colorful, more welcoming world. The ending was a very nice conclusion, even if more questions went unanswered than otherwise, but I like that our nameless protagonist will get to hang out with his giant, sandwich-loving friend. I wish that I could really catch a train for the Amber Coast, but since I can't, this is definitely the next best thing. An understated little gem, which I very much enjoyed!
A lovely little train romp adventure... we love doing this in real life, though there are precious few places in the world where it is still possible...
