I had a really pleasant time with this game. Thank you for making it!
Thank you so much for playing it ^.^
Great fun, found the bottle but spent another 10 mins trying to find it again when I needed it :-)
Couldn't stop till I completed it.
Hahah xD thanks for playing the game and good job on completing it!
I liked the personality that the game had. It was really cool seeing the two different enviornments and Idk I just liked all the characters and their little dialogue. I wasn't able to finish it though :( I got stuck on the bottle. I wasn't exactly sure what I was looking for or how big it was. I had a similar issue with mushy but I eventually found him. I think it would've been cool to see like a small image or something of the thing we're looking for to make it easier to find or give us a sense of what it looks like you know. But it was nice from what I got through
Thank you for playing our game! Glad to hear you enjoyed the game, it's a shame you couldn't find the bottle. A small hint: The bottle is a tiny/small yellow potion bottle. If you want a further directive hint / rough area to look so you can finish the game let us know.
I could look into dialogue options to talk to Hollowkin or a timer based hint prompt so if a little while has passed it prompts with progressive hints and it could even be a game setting possibly - definitely something to take on board so thanks for the feedback :)
since we got feedback saying multiple people couldnt find the bottle either, we added a screenshot of what the bottle looks like to the game page to provide a sense of what it looks like! hope this helps, and thanks for giving our game a chance!
Fun - Super cute! I loved running around and chatting with each of the little kinfolk was an absolute delight.
Theme - Really nailed the theme here. Definitely on point - running around inside a hollow tree is so cool!
Aesthetics - Colorful and vibrant! It was a lot of fun exploring the little area.
Music - Matched the vibe perfectly
Sound - Same as the music - really set the tone well.
Mechanics - Pretty simple, which was all it really needs. Explore, find the quest objects, have a silly
conversation. Nice and tight gameplay loop.
Story - A silly story with silly characters! Really fun to chat with each of them.
Overall - Great work and a really adorable game! Nice job
