Wow!

I've got so many questions:

  • how did you use that softbody physics?
  • what dialog framework did you use?
  • HOW DID YOU DO ALL THIS IN ONLY 9 DAYS????

These are a few...feel free to let me know anytime ^U^

Seriously, it was amazingly fun and well done, congrats for this first jam submission!

Hello I got some answers

  • Softbody physics is a godot plugin called SoftBody2D by  ughuuu
  • Dialog is another plugin called Dialogue Manager by Nathan Hoad
  • Lack of sleep and the power of friendship :)

Sleep who? Only bugs

In all seriousness, power of friendship!! JD did an enormous amount of coding in such a short time. Truly magic!

The sound of the bug hopping triggered my dog :). He kept looking for the toy. I actually had to mute it so I could play though as it got jarring. Maybe you could add a pitch shift to vary it (and provide volume controls in game) 

Cute entry, and satisfying physics. 

I agree with the comments it would have been nice to full screen. I zoomed in on the browser so it wasn’t as annoying.

I've updated the game to the correct window resolution size and also have full screen enabled in browser.

Aww gosh! Hope your dog finds joy with another squeaker toy! We can look into adding pitch shifts :)

Volume controls were the last thing added before the deadline so definitely working on some tweaks!

Omg it's like a 2D version of our game, I love this. The softbody physics on the egg were really satisfying. I love all the dialogue with the bugs around town. Nice work!!

This game looks really fun, unfortunately it's kind of hard to play as it is stuck at a tiny screen resolution for me.

Maybe add a fullscreen button in the itch page settings. Let me know if you update it and I'll try it out.
