The music is by Lena Raine, i don't really know if i need to say much more tbh. The only thing is the controls can take a lot of getting used to, i used both a controller and mouse for the most natural feeling, but it can be a bit weird. Otherwise beautiful game and everyone who made it should be proud on making such an interesting and innovative experience.

Underrated gem. It’s a painting game, and it may look like a game for toddlers, but it is one of the most connecting experiences I have ever had in a video game. The gameplay is incredibly fun, and the music is AMAZING (Lena Raine I kneel down at you), but the best part is by far the story. It has such a profound meaning and each character struggle feels real. Not only the main ones, but there are plenty of side stories that have deep messages with really heartwarming conclusions to them. This is not just a game, it’s a therapy session. Enjoy playing while healing your heart. One of the best games I have ever played, I’m absolutely in love.

I came into Chicory expecting a light hearted coloring adventure game, but what I experienced was something more meaningful. If you have ever doubted yourself or the art you created, I think Chicory will resonate with you.

I was going to say the painting felt kinda pointless an adult but then I found myself trying my darnedest to paint Chicory, so I'm the one who deserves a review because I definitely got played
