I recently played Night in the Woods for the first time - and I fell head first in love with it. It's a beautiful game - the art style is beautifully simple and yet full of meaning, the characters are real, compellingly flawed and natural-feeling people, the storytelling is poignant, nostalgic and deeply introspective... I was shocked with how much I loved it. More than anything, I loved the dialogue between Mae and her friends and family. It was the most realistic dialogue I had ever seen written, anywhere. It felt like conversations my friends or family and I would have. There were so many little scenes that felt so honest - like sitting in front of the TV, late at night, with your mom or dad, watching late shows that really aren't that good - but it's the feeling of being there. The feeling of being with people you cared about.



There was also a wonderful plot involving ghost stories and the paranormal - but I loved it for these characters, and their stories. So I just had to do fanart, of course!



It occurs to me that some of my favorite pieces are all night scenes... but hey, night skies are so fun to paint, and stars take a part in the story of Night in the Woods, so it works for me. ^^



Also, my favorite character is Bea. Bea is a gem.



So yep, I highly recommend the game, and its supplement games you can download online for a few bucks. They help make the story even more meaningful.
