How does your game fit the theme?
The game features minigames on different size scales, from the smaller scale like building neural bridges to form thoughts, to the bigger scale like arranging planets. The built to scale theme can also be seen in the gameplay of some of the minigames, for example, there’s a minigame where you scale objects to different sizes. This game wants to show the scale that a human life has and how it changes as the time moves on.

Profound.
This is a cool idea but I really didn't love the forming thoughts minigame. I couldn't see where I was and wasn't supposed to click, so it made it difficult to see what the intended solution was.
Okay, now I`m sad
I really like the message of the game and I think you had a very unique take on the theme this year. My only criticism is that I felt like I spent more time waiting between stages of the game than I did playing them. I especially liked how the levels evolved and changed over the course of the game!
Really enjoyed the idea. I would have found it fun to make the mini games shorter (run faster) and see the life of different people.
Interesting style and the minigames are intuitive. However, even though you want to complete the mini games efficiently, there's no real sense of urgency or risk involved when playing. I think I could have enjoyed the game more if the pacing was a little more rushed.
Very interesting concept with a bunch of mini-games. I liked the art style and how quickly objectives transformed from one to the next. Well done!
Wow nice game here, the mini games are intuitive and satisfying ! I struggled a bit on the bridge minigame because I did not understood at start how to create bridge. Other than that, congratulations on your submission :)
Life’s journey, from childhood’s wonder to the complexities of adulthood and the reflection of old age, is beautifully captured in this game. As we grow, each stage shapes who we become, reminding us that every moment matters. This simple yet heartfelt creation, speaks to the universal experience of growing up and finding meaning in every phase of life.
