the deer bends gravity, also it's all a horrible reference to a song nobody knows.

Very interesting story. I included it in my Mini Jam 107 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Really cute game! I loved the song!

LOL This deer had a lot of surprisingly positive opinions about microscopes. I loved when the voice comes in on top of the song at the end, and the whole game was very beautiful.

Relaxing and feels good at the end. 

For my first two cycles, I only had explicitly insulting options to say to my deer friend. I was like "Oh no, is this just a game about shit talking a deer?"

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

It can be a game about shit talking a deer, if you want, there's a "bad" ending for that, haha

I chatted with a gravity bending deer and ended up becoming friends with him... Nice work!

I enjoyed the conversation with a deer. The music worked really well with the mood and atmosphere of the game. 

I'm not entirely sure what determined which options were available to me; it seemed random, since I'd sometimes get duplicates.

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it! They're indeed completely random! I didn't have the time to build the system that wouldn't repeat the lines. 😌

Enjoyment: Hilarious, and cute. I'm so happy I met my Deer friend.

Concept: Such a fun idea :3

Presentation: Gorgeous cute style, music was nice, interacting with the dialogue choices were a bit tough to see unless i hovered them.

Limitation: The use of a Gravity Deer was unexpected in this jam.
