So . . . this game got rushed because this was my team's first Jam. The actual, real game is here: https://austingibb.itch.io/no-cause-for-concern The one submitted into this Jam was just a very early test-build! Apologies for the mixup, everyone!

Hammering bird houses is the best job ever. I'm either missing something, or the content is pretty limited. But what's there is intriguing, I especially like the swirling void of cosmic horror outside the floating house. 😅

There was supposed to be more . . . this was my team's (well, the rest of the teams, not mine) first Jam ever, believe it or not! So we ended up kinda overestimating the time-constraints, people started getting burned out in the end and so on. But I'm proud of what we were able to accomplish for their first Jam, this game has potential, and we're planning on revisiting this game to include the stuff that was missing! ^_^

Also, the swirling void of cosmic horror outside is caused by the narrator. He IS the "cosmic horror" :3

I feel like that happens all the time with game jams. Getting anything playable and uploaded is already a huge achievement! And I agree that this has some great potential, looking forward to playing more!

I love the graphics. The player sprite in particular works really well with the hand drawn theme
