Well, Mike ran in to problems getting ldjam.com working properly with about 12 hours left in the Compo, so this is the backup plan.
A game about letting go...

This game made me really sad... that means you: This was really well done. Incredibly moody.
very, damn it, perfect and sad :(
good job man, the entry is great and make Feels
Properly depressing.
Also, I really liked phaser when I used it ( although I only used the typescript version ) glad to see it's getting some popularity.
5/5 sadness (mood). Great work. Really liked the choice of name too.
Great mood and art, definitely interesting.
I'm not sure exactly what I am doing when I am spamming left and right? I get that the point is to let go, but am I resesitating him? CPR? Doing the "Clear" thing? It could be more "clear" haha.
Still, good mood and a cool idea. Great job!
Well, that was pretty sad.
Nicely made, though! The graphics are really well done - they reminded me a bit of the high contrast pixel art in Papers, Please. The use of the theme was pretty interesting as well - not too straightforward, but I like what you did with it.
This was not the type of game I expected to find. The visuals are really well done, and discovering that you play as the son, who is fighting, instead of the dad is a great and sad moment. I personally think this perfectly captures the mood and emotions it is trying to convey. The only thing I would say is that this entry should NOT be being rated on humor.
Interesting game. Wasn't expecting an entry like this and I'm glad I found it. Good take on the theme and the mood / atmosphere is awesome! Nice job
Man this is game is SAD :( I just think what that would be like if it was my own kid.
Quick time events :P
I think this concept could really have been explored further. Unfortunately, no attachment has been built up around the characters, so I didn't experience much connection or loss.
Wow, really heavy-harded now. :( regards to this minimalistic but artistic idea. Are these your own guitar ending-tunes there?
Thanks for the comments, everybody. @guckstift yes that's me on guitar.
strange and sad experience.
Not sure that the second part was necessary...
Very emotionally charged. Good art too!
Top marks for mood.
Good idea! Some games give you something to think about. It's a good idea but I feel that you could develop it. Some text and story about why you are there may create some connection to the player, more feel. Keep going!
Interesting game! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/iiDZ_Pg3Qr4

This is a really small game, but has a good idea behind it. Good job!
