Info About All That Matters
I stumbled across All That Matters when I was looking for a game that felt more like reading a novel than clearing levels, and it really delivers that kind of intimate experience. You guide a character through key moments in their life, making choices that shape not just the outcome of a scene but the emotional texture of the story. It’s like having a conversation with someone at a coffee shop—every decision feels loaded, and you start caring about the smallest details.
The way the game unfolds is pretty simple on the surface: you click through dialogue, decide how to respond, and watch relationships evolve or unravel based on what you say. But don’t be fooled by the simplicity; there are pockets of genuine challenge when you have to weigh honesty against kindness or logic against empathy. The visuals lean toward a soft, hand-painted style that gives each scene a warm glow, while the music tugs at you during heartfelt moments without ever becoming over the top.
What really stayed with me is how every interaction feels consequential. You’ll find yourself replaying a choice because you can’t stand seeing a friendship fall apart, or because you’re curious how a more honest route might play out. By the end, I felt like I’d lived a tiny life that both mattered and moved on, and that’s a pretty neat trick for a little narrative game. Whether you’re into branching stories or just looking for something that tugs at the heartstrings, All That Matters is worth a sit-down.
