What do you think?

Wow! I loved this game. Thanks for yours words. This is an amazing game. It helped me to get inspired to create my own video game.

Beautiful short game! I really like the environment the creator has built and can't wait to see what they do with their next game!

Since this game’s release it has come so far, I remember from when this game was a really short 1-2 minute game and now it’s skyrocketing to this, really good game

Really great art style and atmosphere. Very quick game that gets a great message across.

The games art style was fantastic! the music score was able to pull at your heart strings, even though it is short, it is the perfect amount of time to get it's message across! It is a beautiful piece of work, an amazing game! you will not regret it what so ever! I promise you that! Life is a journey that must be conquered and lived, that's what this game is and it did it spectacularly (however you spell it!) I love it, Keep going!

ABOUT THE GAME

The Weeping Boy is a short 2D story game set in a modern world, although you do not know the year, or even your own name. This game is meant to show that no matter how hard life can get, no matter what people say, you should never give up.


STORY

You are a lonely boy and have been your whole life because your parents abandoned you when you were just a baby. Your whole world is black and white. No color of the sky above or of the grass below. You are on the edge of ending it all, so close to giving up, but if you choose to go on, you can collect "the orb of light" which represents happiness and peace , there is but one of these orbs left in the world, and it is up to you to push on. Do you choose to live life, or do you choose to give up.
