A cute game about creative drive and the perils of trying to fall asleep after 2am. The art direction is so colorful and varied, I never knew what was coming next. I also never knew what I was supposed to be doing, but through the power of trying everything I eventually managed.

I was so pleasently surprised with this game, it's so charming the art style is so gorgeous, the puzzles are simple but not too easy. And the wway it touched on dwelling on the past was really endearing and sweet. And i'm really glad I decided to buy perfect day studio's game bundle which comes with their other game perfect day which i'm really excited to play after finishing this!

Well done. The title speaks of the game perfectly. Face the past, don’t get trapped, let go and be brave. That’s what I took away from this short 30 minute game. It’s hard, growth is often lonely and painful, but live and try to live well, good things will happen. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43342176-Why-Not-Games/#browse] My curator page

How I feel when it's 5am, I haven't slept for a second, and I have to be up at 6. I've had this game on my Wishlist for almost as long as it's been out, and when I saw that it was on sale for less than 2 dollars ( a steal ! ) I decided to finally try it out. I've struggled with insomnia since I was about 14 and this game felt very relatable, the late night doom scrolling, intrusive thoughts, embarrassing memories, and finally deciding to take something to help you sleep even though it'll make you groggy in the morning. This game really nails the feeling of it all. I found the story to be pretty good. The character's past was pretty vague, and I kind of wish they went more in depth to her story both past and current. However, this is meant to be a short game, so I get not wanting to spend too long on one thing. The dialogue was a little awkward too, but I assume that's just due to the translation. The gameplay was simple, yet I found that it engaging and no two puzzles are the same. I think this is the game's main strength and where being such a short game really works it its favor. I also really liked that you get your own little art at the end and can keep it, which I'm guessing may be part of the studio's next game, so I'm exited for that. Overall, this game was worth it for me. It may be a short game, but since it's not expensive I wasn't mad about that, and the games length feels intentional, not like it's just short because they couldn't think of content. Each puzzle is unique, the story keeps you interested, and the ending leaves you feeling good. Would Recommend.
