=====================

“A surprisingly emotional experience” - KJ Robertson (alphabetagamer)

“A simple game to show how high levels of air pollution are affecting China’s citizens—in particular, its children.” –Rachel Pick (VICE)

“The delivery of the message is excellent.” – Brendan Caldwell (Rockpapershotgun)

"[Hazy Days] recalls the political games of Molleindustria that focus on the terrible human conditions"– (Killscreen)

"Although only a single button is needed, the game is deceptively challenging." - Carlos Daez (Thecurrent)

“It is cruelly real.” - Belén Gómez (Onseriousgames)

=====================

Ive been living in China for over a year now and while the city is great, the air pollution is a real issue that people deal with on a day-to-day basis. I made Hazy Day based on my own personal experiences and I hope that it can help put into perspective what it feels like to breathe in smog.

Chinas air pollution levels are constantly covered in the media. With Hazy Days, I hope to humanize the issue so that the problem can be more relatable.

Please leave a review to help spread the word. Thanks for playing.
