Kevin gave me my first gmail account when it was in beta. He wanted to see what happened when someone filled up their inbox; Gmail was offering 1gb and at that time 1gb of email storage was unheard of. If you sent him a large enough email, he responded with an invite.

Thank you! There is actually a toggle for the window frame if you hit the settings on the bottom right. The idea of towns or little cottages is something I've been thinking about playing with, so that's validating to hear. Glad you enjoyed it!

I like it a lot, however when you said about it looking out of a train window, I imagined something like the scene in Miyuzaki's Spirited Away. The music is perfect, the scenery is great. I would love the addition of toggles for the train window frame, the chugging of the wheels on tracks, some random telegraph polls / distant towns / fields. But as it is I will be already coming back regularly to chill :)

thank you for making this beautiful thing!
