it feels like yesterday... is a flat game born in 2025, co-created with my five-year-old daughter. It began as a small zine, made in the hours between work and the messiness process of motherhood and matrescence, and grew into a reflection on time slipping through our hands: the first school drop-off, the ache of returning to work, the wonder and grief of watching her grow faster... and the tiredness of balancing everything at the same time.

Visuals include her drawings, photos, zine components and leaves scanned on the way to the school.
