Next Door
This is a short exploration game where you accumulate new ideas and information about a garden you're planning. The lead art is by Ruby Ball, and the rest of the illustrations are by me. I began with a writing prompt from the novelist Rebecca Makkai, and I coded this story using Inky.

Nice game. thanks for making and sharing
There is a beautifully personal and homey style to this game. From the "familiarity" of understanding a space, to the focus on objects between the illustrations and text, it was really heartwarming. Great Job!!
P.S. waiting on the prequel that is entirely about Penelope the Pig
I love how cozy this game feels. You get a real sense of place as you go through the house. I also appreciate the idea about the garden even though I sadly live in an apartment
