Steam review snapshots
But Beeswing never tried to bring me down, in fact it’s so clean in its indifference to how the player feels that…The collages of hand drawn pictures, sculpted clay, and glitching digital art are arranged imperfectly in a way that reflects the emotions…“It’s beautiful/moving/a work of art/incredible.” Lines I’ve written many times in regards to many games, settling for easy, familiar descriptives to talk…It recounts the lives of its characters (who to my knowledge are based off real people the developer knew) with a plain…Why it fits
Check it if you want indie filtered by single-player.
