Short and emotional. I love this type of graphics. I'm sure that this story touched some people very deeply. I wish I could interact with more objects within the game to understand the background stories. I just wanted to leave some honest opinions here. Thank you so much. Stay healthy and creative. :)
Finnaly got round to playing this and im glad i did, Just as the last game i played from yarnspinner they know how to hit Story and Atmosphere , and keep the game intresting whereas many others of its type would feel boring, living up the name walking simulator, however you almost forget here. Im not idssapointed to say the least.
Meant to play this earlier, only got time to play it recently.
It really gave me the creeps and that moment when i realized what was going on in the cabin was very emotional. I really enjoyed this little game, so simple and yet makes you reflect on life.
Ahhh, this was so good! I kind of pieced things together pretty quickly, but I wasn't sure what ending the road was going to lead me to.
The atmosphere, the story being told through text messages that we can't reply to, the memories that keep popping up and the ever-creeping sense of mortality really added up to a pretty darn amazingly moving experience.
I'm a sucker for playable story games, and this one really did strike a nerve. Very well done! Keep up the great work, and thanks for giving me the opportunity to play this game =)
such a great narrative! Definetly tugs at your heart strings! I really enjoyed the color palette and the choice in music as it set the mood and tone for the story! Great job!

Hi Aestuo Games we had already replied to your previous comment! If you contact us via our email address yarnspinnergames@outlook.com we'll send you a code and discuss an interview :)
Such a relaxing environment for such a somber and serious story. The build up was what gave this game such a powerful ending that I wasn't expecting. I would've liked more messages and possibly a bit longer of a game to flesh out the story a bit more but maybe the shortness added to the shock at the end.
It's short, but an enjoyable game nonetheless. While playing it felt like the walking was going too slow, but I think given just how short it was, the slow pace worked really well for it and the environment was really nice so at least there was a good amount of beauty around while walking around. Toward the end I started to suspect the twist ending coming, but still wasn't prepared for it and damn, those feels man. Thanks the free key, I hope you enjoy the video!
Hi GrannyJo! Firstly thank you for taking the time to play No Response. Your feedback means a lot to us :) We are confused as to why the phone would not raise during your playthrough, this is operated by holding the RMB / RT. This was unfortunate as being a story-driven game you missed out on the core content. We understand that the walk speed may be a bit slow for some so we integrated a hidden "jog" that can be activated by holding Left Shift / LT at any time. Thank you for the compliments on the visual style, everything graphical was produced by us so your kind words were greatly appreciated. Kind Regards - Yarn Spinner

Hi there, thank you for contacting me about your game. I'll be giving a quick review here, mostly going over the things I liked and didn't like.
I'll start off with what I liked. The game is very pretty, I love the lighting effects used, and the warmth of the colours is very inviting, it gives a somewhat relaxed feeling despite the circumstances. I found the atmosphere/tone of the game to very well done, you can immediately tell that there's more going on underneath the surface but the game slowly builds up to it, which is nice. The story is pieced together fairly well, I like when a game can tell a story through the use of it's environment, and I'd say that's done well here. The sounds used throughout the game are good as well, from the splashing of the waterfall to the hoo of an owl, everything sounded nice, though a tiny bit too loud at times, but that may have just been my headphones.
Now for what I didn't like. It wasn't easy getting the game to record properly, I have a dual monitor setup, my primary monitor is 2560x1440 and my secondary monitor is 1920x1080, it seemed as though the game was locked to a 1080p resolution and full-screen. Any time I tried to force windowed mode the game would revert back to full-screen after pressing 'enter' on the title screen, causing my second monitor to shift my capture applications around. A graphics options menu would have been lovely and would have saved about 20-30 minutes of fiddling around if I was just able to change the resolution and or window mode properly.
All in all, I tried not to let the technical issues spoil the game for me, it really is a lovely experience to be had, the game is breathtaking and the environments have been crafted with a lot of care, with details packed into each scene. The issues I experienced would likely only happen to people with similar setups as me, trying to record the game as well.
As mentioned, I recorded a short let's play of the game for my channel, hope you don't mind.
We're sorry that you experienced issues with resolution due to a multiple monitor setup. Changing the game resolution within the application is something that we will look into for a future update! Thank you for your feedback and let's play :)
You guys played with my emotions all over again! Still, this was a beautiful game, and I appreciate you sending me a key. I haven't uploaded any new LPs in a while, but I decided start making videos again, starting with your game.
The look of the game and the story is fantastic and it plays really smoothly. Sound is also spot on. It's a shame there wasn't voice acting on the phone messages as that would have really pushed this to the next level. From Causeway to this is a big leap forward and I can't wait to see what comes next from you guys. Big congrats to all involved... :)

This was very emotional.

A very lovely game, with an amazing aesthetic.
What a lovely project, you guys did really well to hit me in the heart. Well done..
Very interesting! I enjoyed it a lot.
I like how you used lights and colors. I think I can learn a lot about that just looking at your game.
I loved this game, the only "bad" thing is that, it's too short ^_^

So, I liked it but I had a lot of criticism. I think this needs a lot more work! Beautiful game, though!!!

It was good because the story was deep.
It is a sad story, but the quality of the work is outstanding.
I Enjoyed play!
즐겁게 플레이 했어요!
Thanks Yarn Spinner for hooking me up with a key!

Damn these iphones… atleast imessage still works＼| ￣ヘ￣|／
SO PRETTTTTY, nice short lil' narrative game:> hope ye enjoy the vid<3I like games that are pretty, and this game? It's very pretty. Try not to get sad!
The look of the game and the story is fantastic and it plays really smoothly. Sound is also spot on.

Thanks for the playthrough and the kind words KevX! Our next title is voice acted so hopefully we can up the bar once more :)
does the game have voice acting or is it a reading type?
Hi tearierboot. It's a reading-type game! Hopefully this doesn't dissuade you from giving us a shot :)
