Time Never Stops

This is an "art game" i made, based on a true and tragic story.
I am not a good programmer, not even using extremely basic tools like GameMaker, so there are many bugs, but i hope the message comes clear.
I could have made excellent graphics for this, but i couldn't. The only thing i did honor to was the moonlit cove scene, which i based off the real thing.

I played this in Spanish; 'preciona' should be 'presiona'. :)

The message seems to be quite heartfelt, and it's something that happens in many families. I like that, but I think this work is rather naive in its approach, in that it has a single, unilateral message, and just in case you didn't get it, it throws a brick on you in the form of a written moral. What I'm saying is that it feels rather flat, and as such, doesn't really provoke me, didn't get to me. Perhaps you oversimplified the otherwise rather complex situation that you portray.

I'm sorry; perhaps this critique was uncalled for, since you were inspired by real circumstances, of which I have no knowledge (other than what one can infer from playing the game). I'm just taking this at face value, so bear that in mind. You're the one who really knows what this game is about.

Yeah, noticed the horrible grammatical mistake at the end.
And no, by no means is uncalled for, it's good advice for future projects. Thanks!
