I must make the pine needle soda. Is it guarenteed for someone to break in (I need friends *joke, btw...kind of*)?

This story is so philosophical. I like it.

lol I had to google it to see if pine needles soda was a real thing, fascinating...great story and visuals every box of text mattered!

Lol, I actually got the idea from reddit. I was browsing for ideas and someone had made a bottle and forgotten about it. I was like...they're lucky it didn't explode!

When life gives you pine needles, you get your engineers to invent a combustible pine needle that explodes in your kitchen.

mankind has gone too far...

Never got to drink it, never got to vape the pine needle soda :(

at least got to smell it?

Oh wow, this is great! I really like how you did the visuals, and how strong of a message you could convey in such a short amount of time. Great work!

Thanks so much, Phil!!! I challenged myself to put together something this week without overthinking it, so I'm glad you liked it.

Damn...
*Deep breath*
Kinda hard to put into words how deeply I felt this, I ended up crying a little at the end. Silly I know, its a story about losing track of time, but... I donno. It hit me weirdly hard.
But... Its a fantastic little art piece by a wonderful person whom I deeply respect. Well done Mumbles!

Thank you so much for sharing...and trust me I totally get it. Winter is really the worst time of year for me because it's so easy to fall into this habit of doing absolutely NOTHING and worrying about EVERYTHING. The creative projects I try to start during this season sometimes end up like the pine needle soda. Just forgotten so long that I don't even get to see it through to the end. I'm so thankful I could connect with another person through this little game I made.

I never got to taste it.

never once

Amazingggg I love the RHYTHM of this. It’s a poem and it is beautiful.

Thank you! This is my first try at a short visual novel :)
