When the war started in Gaza and i saw the images of the killed kids in their parents hands I was shocked, I had a weird feeling, it’s a combination of sadness, fear, empathy and anger, All what i was thinking of is “what if this happened to me”.So i made this game as a self expression about my feeling regarding whats happening in my country.

We had an issue with Apple, at the beginning they refused to publish the game as a game, they told me that I have publish it under the news category or reference category but not under the games category, they claim it has a political statement.
But after the support from the game developers community Apple reversed its decision.
