A short experimental game for Game Maker's Toolkit Jam 2019 "Only One" based on the poem "The Oven Bird" by Robert Frost.

CONTROLS: "1" or "Numpad 1" - change the font style; "Esc" - restart.

GOAL OF THE GAME: listen to the whole poem, while juggling the font style of "The Ball". "The Ball" should touch the sentences only with the same font style activated, otherwise, the word "AGAIN" will "close" and the game will restart.

Only letters were used as the type of graphical assets in this game. 

Only one poem, only one screen, only one key, only one action to make.

I hope you'll find this little game interesting. Have a good one!

*the poem is in public domain, the font is free to use (Lato), the forest sound is from https://freesound.org/ and the audio version of the poem was made by Windows Narrator app, which is free to use.

Oh, and here's the full text of the poem.
