The game is difficult to play due to the controls, but the art style and story are great!

How does you game fit the theme?
The game tells the story of an animal that loses its herd, so it has to find it again. the next levels the player finds a drug, it gives the player temporary powers but wears down health. By the time the player realizes this, it's already too late, the damage is done and the animal is now addicted and has lost its herd. However, he finds help from another pack.
The game tries to generate a metaphor about drug use and how you can always ask for help no matter the circumstance.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. the game was made from scratch in phaser 3

The storytelling, creature design and animation of the cut scenes were amazing! Such cute expressive creatures who really tell the story! And the music for the cut scenes were sweet as well! :) The platformer controls were... special. A bit wierd when the character starts slowly and accelerates upwards through the jump, just to suddenly stop. And the way the wall jumping worked didn't feel intuitive for me. I did get through it, though and got to see another amazing cut scene :D

Obnoxious SweeperHey! Great work. We didn't expected this level of animations the intros and the outros in a jam. The result really shows the effort. We wont bother you with the jump mechanic as others have mention it. Also we liked that you had plenty of levels. Nicely done!

Purr-fect TeamThe art style, cutscenes and ambience were great, and that ending was heartwarming! I just had a hard time with the controls, but once I got used to them, I managed to beat the levels quicker. Also, music and sound effects could have been used during the game to further enchance the atmosphere of the game.
But I really liked this entry, it was an interesting and informative take on the theme, good work!

Survival GameI really like the grayscale art and that sweet little intro at the beginning. I'm having trouble performing the jumps and maybe some of the colliders, but still a nice & cool looking game. Good job!

ALWAYS HAS BEENI really like the art
the platforming feels a bit unresponsive and the wall jumps feel so hard to do correctly.
But really cool game. Good job!

The night GuardNice, but for me a little too hard to make wall jumps. It would often send my character flying. But overall solid game.

Don't screamThe art is unique but some animation seems misleading what the character does. Perhaps 2 different speed one when walking and one running and walking gives constant jump would help. I had difficulties with some of the jump but by simply placing them lower would fix it in my opinion.
Overall, still had fun in an unique looking game !
