School’s out

Indonesian studio Mojiken have been making games for years.

Most of them are less than an hour long.

It’s a triumph.

A schoolgirl looks down at a blue flower that’s growing out of her palm in A Space For The Unbound.

Aces, so we have two supernatural teens with cool powers - love that - but whats the catch?

Residents are starting to act strangely and parts of the town haphazardly glitch in and out of reality.

Theres also a giant crack in the sky that threatens to shatter the entire world.

Mojikens staple use of magical realism in their games is out in full force here.

Also, you may wanna have a tissue or two ready for the ending, just saying.

They make every backdrop look like a never-ending horizon.

The town isn’t just a town in this respect either.

What a wonderful start to 2023.
