Kids_

## Description

_Kids__ is a short game that focuses entirely on the narrative. It offers no
explanation of the story or the setting and leaves everything open for the
player to interpret. The player controls a blue character through a 2D
environment using a third-person perspective with non-scrolling screens
through four chapters. There are four movement keys and two additional ones to
interact and jump. A journal can be accessed where up to seven icons are
highlighted eventually. The main goal is mainly to proceed through movement
and there is no way to fail. A scene inside a metro or train often acts as a
starting hub for a new scene. Other environments include a cityscape, the
woods, a moon/star/asteroid surface where the character slowly disintegrates,
a section inside the star, and a series of islands. There are many other
scenes triggered automatically with more abstract visuals. The game uses a
retro-style pixel art look and emotive music by the artist Colleen.
