If I were a bumblebee and you were a puddle / would I drown in you anyway

Life's actually going fine for a change. I mean mostly work, of course. Even though I might not personally like all my coworkers, the job itself is mostly fulfilling, and I like the thought that I'm contributing something for as small cause that's doing lot's of good locally. But, as there's not actually not terribly much to share about that and I don't feel like delving into pit of snakes that is upcoming applying exams for university, here's another silly game-heads-up-thing.

You see, I found a game version of cotton candy called One and One Story. It's really simple and really short, so if you're up for non-violent puzzle game with bit of aww at the end, this will probably do the trick.


Basically, you have to direct two figures across the platform to each others arms, moving them in the way narrative tells you to. Gameplay truly changes trough the first person narrative that sometimes makes an attempt at sounding cryptic. ("sometimes, she was running away") Mostly though, the solution to these platforms were self evident and none of them required brainpower to work out. Story is pretty basic, containing trying to navigate in a relationship with a person who sometimes runs over the cliff and dies on you, or who sometimes drops heavy rocks on your head. Ending is pure fluff and corn syrup and gooey eyes. It's cute like a newborn fawn.
Points for the original idea, pleasant soundtrack and backgrounds. And once you beat it, you get a multiplayer mode, so you can play it with your significant other. Or something. Seeing as my closest thing to a significant other is a cat (thank lord for that), I don't think that's happening anytime soon.
