Pink Gum
Pink Gum is a very short journey through a life as told by chewing gum bubbles. I pondered how to sum this game up in a sentence, and I guess that’s the best I could do. Not great, really.
I think its one of those things that no matter what I might say, you could go, hmm, sounds interesting, but when you actually see it, it will make perfect sense. Which begs the question “Why am I even writing about it then?”
Because I think Pink Gum is well worth checking out. For the small amount of time and money you spend, you get a visually appealing, thought provoking experience. I’m also pretty sure that my opinion isn’t enough to persuade you, so here are some quotes about the game from famous people.

The Space in Between
Full Play through with the two recommended plays if you’d rather listen than read here (once it uploads): https://youtu.be/h3W_O_Y5kJo
I really enjoyed the humor in this game some of it was really great. The music was really nice and relaxing and some of the picture frames were calming and romantical. I’m glad that there was a few differences in the second play through but I wish there was more there’s not a dynamic change in the story from choosing one thing from choosing another the main story stays the same even though you may get some more humorous responses depending on what you pick. Definitely worth at least one play through if you enjoy romantic visual novels and they do a good job at covering feelings/outlook that someone with mental health would experience.

I honestly loved playing this game, I randomly decided to play it on my twitch stream because it was a new visual novel and it looked pretty (visual wise and interesting plot wise). It really touches on the realism of just self identity in the ethnicity and culture aspect (for June) and the hardships and challenges dealing with mental health (for Miles). It was honestly very cute and wholesome, I thought we’d be able to make our own constellations by scratch but I honestly didn’t mind the premade ones because it was very creative. We get to somewhat see the perspectives and imagination of the two characters as themselves and as a couple which was very cute. I don’t wanna spoil to much but the author put in a lot of thought for their back stories and the characters, I totally rate the game ♡♡♡
