I was amazed at the depth of this story. How clicking on different objects triggered a different memory for Rachel. I found 94 of 104 memories, so I'll definitely go back to grab the other 10. But it was very emotional, not only learning what happened to the crew, but it felt really personal since it was through the memories of Rachel. I like how it totally breaks the "show, don't tell rule" because you're literally having Rachel tell you about this and that, and yet it feels so immersive and real since the concept is learning what happened through the eyes of one of the ship's crewmates, so it felt quite realistic. This story definitely is worth a look!
Feels like a good sci-fi short story, which I really like! Amazing how you fleshed out the characters, even tho we only find out about them from one person's memories. Thanks for using my sprite, she really fits here :D Now I wish I made a more diverse range of emotions for her! Also, I'm amazed how you managed to make the japanese school location backgrounds fit perfectly into the spaceship scenario, by explaining what the function of the objects shown actually is. It's weirdly clever :D
Thanks! And yeah, using only CC artwork is always a bit of a challenge (sometimes you desperately want an image that you can't find anywhere). But I'm glad that the sort of odd ball concept worked! Your awesome sprite definitely helped. She's so adorable!
