This is a great game! I like the dialogue a lot and art style is also good! The only thing I noticed was a bit off was the camera movement, so I'd recommend making it fixed on the player and not move with the player, especially when they are at the edge of the map. Also if you get the chance, would really appreciate it if you checked out my game Deep Dive and left a quick review! :)
yea i get the camera movement suggestion a lot - i do need to fix that 100% - and ill check out your game!
a nice, short experience of a game. The writing has some neat ideas for a light-hearted walking sim, but if this were any longer (as in, if you continued to update this) I'd suggest adding some other gameplay elements, something like NPCs giving you things to do other than just talking to them.
thanks!
yea that was my plan before but i kinda started late so i coudn't get to that point at the end
Its a nice game! I like the style of dialogue and the map design a lot. The art is also nice!!
The only suggestion I'd make is to make the camera centered on the player or rather not move when player is at the edges and perhaps give more direction to the story, but that's about it for the short term!
If you plan on taking it further, I'd recommend adding simple SFX and music to certain stuff, maybe footsteps/dialogue or some basic background music, it would help keep it immersive.
Good job on this though, its great!
thanks for the suggestions!!! the camera not focusing on the player until the player reaches the edges is something i do need to work on and my audio file got corrupted and i couldn't get it back :(
oof, yeah its horrible when that happens. Still its very good, you should be really happy!!
Game is super nice and it was fun to play. Great job!
If you have a minute, I'd really appreciate it if you could check out my game too and drop a rating + short review. Would mean a lot!
funny game :)
(ᵔᗜᵔ) yey
The game itself is not a bad idea, though it is a bit.. all over the place. Not bad overall
yea i understand it got messy at the very start and very end
Interesting game! Would love to see a more polished version in the future.
thank you :)
So this is how dad got the milk...
One small suggestion is to have the screen scroll as soon as the player moves instead of scrolling when the player gets to the edge of the screen. This way, you can see the obstacles coming (also, one less mechanic)
No audio :(
yea :( the audio file got corrupted and i couldn't get it back and thanks for the suggestion!!
Shooot. That's just unlucky. By any chance, if you can somehow recover a copy of the audio, I'd love to hear it and change the rating. (I'm @Muyao Lu on Slack)

Made me giggle. Good job for a first try.
