This extraordinary game is one of my favorites in recent memory (...) a powerful meditation
The Good People is a beautifully written and designed, emotional, and very personal story
This is a work which is not like anything else
·
Playable on mobile, but a computer or tablet strongly recommended. One hour approximately.
Content warning: Relationship conflict. Climate change. Orphanhood. Swearing (rare).
Did you enjoy it? It'd be wonderful to know! Please rate the game so I know that making it was worth it!

i was trying to play it on my phone, but the dark mode (which i guess inherited from my phone system) is unreadable. :(
can you please fix the contrast between background and font color?
Loaded it on Pale Moon on desktop after it from android. Not finished reading yet…not sure what’s going on yet…but the writing does very much so make for an immersive environment. Bit slow…but it might just be me reading pro it. In a weirdo. Keep thinking about Cherokee Trail of Tears. and how our hall of records burned down so we have no proof of lineage or anything…like…i am not legally part of the nation - but hoped to be some day. and its weird to feel … erased…while you are still here…dunno of that makes sense
Unfortunately it's just not working on mobile :((( At some point the dialogue keeps going lower and off screen. I've *really* enjoyed the narrative far until now, hope I can play it soon on a laptop tho :<
