missroserose | One And One Story

I'm not generally a big one for Flash-based games, but the description of this one caught my eye - "An emotive platformer which explores the different stages in the relationship between a young couple." It's a little idealized, yes, but surprisingly well executed - it reminded me a bit of Braid in how the narrative and gameplay concepts intertwined. I particularly enjoyed the teamwork aspect; having to make the two of them cooperate was a nice touch in a genre where so often the girl is merely the passive object of desire.

Also? Naive or not, the last level made me smile.

It's short and sweet. Give it a go.
