This is one of a kind
Most flash games that try to be deep just come off of pretentious, but not this one. Very few times has a game, let alone a flash game gotten me to feel something for the character. You did a fantastic job in every little nuance, and for some reason at the end screen I just stared and listened to the music for about 5 minutes, and at that moment I could think of nothing but the hermit and the struggles he went through, and to be honest I was extremely sad. Everything from the story, to the atmosphere and the music just pulled it together for a remarkable experience. My only suggestion, dont make a sequel, this story needs to be left the way it is, it ended perfectly, and anything else would just ruin it.
