Nice looking, and relaxing chill out game.  Love the animations and slick dialogue and quest UI.  The camera control with the mouse was a bit too sensitive.

well, that was a chill game and it was not very short or too long, gameplay systems were really chill and cool, Great Job!

It is possible, for the Mouse Cursor to “leave” the Game, therefor no more Camara Control. makes it sometimes pretty fidgety to find the next spot in the Map. Very important messages during the Game, but the Restoration itself could use some diversity.

But dam(n) this Engineer Beaver is everything I want. Really love him.

Thanks for the feedback, appreciate you taking the time to play! This was one world of many we conceived, each with their own unique ecosystem to restore so in future versions, there will be variations.

I have some problem for controls , the camera view. however this game is very good 

Developer

Thanks for playing, and we appreciate you taking the time to feedback!

Liked the sphere world. I had some trouble with the controls, because it seemed like I couldn't rotate/turn freely, making it hard to approach some markers. Also, the ecosystem markers and the shard things used the same icon, so that I kept "finding" the ecosystem areas while hunting shards.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, sorry you had trouble navigating the world. Really appreciate you taking the time to play!

Nice relaxing game you made. I like the character models you made and had a nice animation to it and all.  Very interesting ideas you did here.

Developer

Thanks for playing, we appreciate the feedback. Glad you enjoyed it!

I think you have a great idea there, and nowadays we need more games like that. I'd suggest adding some sounds for gratifications and a more dynamic world with elements to orient ourselves (I turned, turned and never thought that I'd be able to go back to the NPC). Loved it !

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed it!

Very nice cozy feel. I could imagine enhancing the gameplay itself with a few different tasks (collecting  resources, planting a tree etc.) instead of pressing the same keys for every ecosystem.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, we do have more planets in mind with varying ecosystems and different tasks to complete. Thanks for playing!

Very educational game.  I like the art style and the world design of it. I felt a little dizzy while navigating through the map though.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, controls and camera are high on the list of fixes! Thanks for playing!

Cool game, and great you got to participate in a game jam together! :D I like you took a learning game approach, you don't see that often. I had some issues with my mouse cursor still being enabled which made it a bit tough to use the camera, but I managed to play through it all anyways. The artstyle is super nice and consistent all the way through. Great job :D

Developer

Thanks for taking the time to play and feedback to us, we really appreciate it! It was a long time coming for us to make a game together, so glad everyone has enjoyed it!

Nice game. The art and music were great. The mouse controls were a little annoy to point in the right direction

Developer

Appreciate the feedback, we definitely take onboard the mouse issue and is first on the list for fixes.

This was super awesome. I love the models, the music, the idea. Games like this are super easy to get addicted to, definitely potential for expansion here. Nice submission! 😃

Developer

Thanks for playing, we did have more planet ideas in mind to represent different ecosystems that need restoring.

This little game is great—I really like the visual style! :) Well done!

Developer

Thanks for playing and glad you enjoyed the visuals!

Y'all made a nice game and I enjoyed playing it. I will say my only problems where the mouse drifting off screen and the gameplay feeling a little repetitive after a couple tasks, it would have been more enjoyable if I'd had to collect items or resources to restore the ecosystems instead of just standing there and pressing a few buttons. Overall nice work fellas and I liked what you did with your itch page.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed it!

felt like a nice cozy game! but it crashed on me sadly,  and there was mouse drift somehow haha but all in all a great job!

Developer

Thanks, sorry you had some difficulty whilst playing though!

Eco-engineer's high five!

Very cozy prototype :)

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for playing!

The mouse would drift off screen and I would have to reposition it but overall, it was a fun and cute game with an awesome theme!

Developer(+1)

Thanks, we didn't spot the mouse issue unfortunately. If we develop this further, that will be the first issue we fix. Glad you enjoyed the experience!

I love the eco-friendly and educational theme! I would have liked to learn even more! 
The tasks quickly become repetitive, but overall, great concept!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback and playing the game, we really appreciate it!
