6 itemsAbout the Game
Short memories is a very short game about two women discussing on a bench. This game is about normalizing being and becoming old. You'll navigate trough different minigames, led by a dialogue, that will show you different aspects of elderliness.
Being or becoming old and all that it implies, is a very normal part of your life. Short Memories tries to not talk about what we are scared of during this stage in life (sickness, death or other difficulties). But just showing two people that are living it having a normal conversation.
The game is playable only with your mouse and you'll have to finish 3 minigames to reach the end of it. All of those minigames are difficult in their own way, and they try to translate what difficulties older people can encounter. All that translated to clunky game mechanics.
You'll also follow a short conversation between our 2 ladies on their favourite bench, talking about what life was, what it is and what it will be.
Hope you enjoy Short memories, it was made with love!
