The music, art style and theme worked perfectly together to create something special. It felt kinda weird to have free movement in a grid-based world and I sometimes had a hard time clicking a speech bubble before the animal moved away, but those are just minor issues.

Congrats on getting a board! Use it with responsibility.

i like games that you can get to the actual game quick, all i could do was walk around and talk to animals who did nothing

Then play these games if you don’t like story-driven interactive experiences ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Eh, just forget that I said anything.

This felt great to explore! Although a bit slow after the first few minutes, but this could be expanded into something great!

edit: Also I think the AI thing was a Portal reference there... hehehe

I think the AI thing was a Portal reference there…

It was 👀

I liked it a lot. More of an experience than a game. The poor animals all had a lot of issues, though. :D

Really atmospheric! The music captivated me a lot.

Really cool game. Loved the concept, art, and music.

Nice art, and nice music for slow and a dramatic game. Nice job.

Loved the art style!

It could not be done without Withering Systems and their free tileset. The tileset is not perfect, but still a marvel!

I have seldom been as unsure of what a game's intended tone is as I was with this. 10/10, would wonder if I'm supposed to laugh as I wander limbo again

Some stuff was exaggerated or accentuated. (E.g. I’m not making a game engine for 12345 years. Only for 7. 🤣 😱) I think it made so much contrast in some places that it derailed the overall feel. (It should have been dark.) Or maybe some human issues indeed look stupid if looked at from other’s eyes. But it is good, I think, we learn about ourselves.

I hope you’ve found at least some of these animals relatable (:

Really sweet game. The writing could definitely use some work, but the art style and atmosphere are excellent. Although the Barney song at the end kind of killed the mood

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

the Barney song at the end kind of killed the mood

Wtf is that thing XD MacLeod’s tracks always remind of some random song. Barney is absent in our culture; the track sounded more like a lullaby for me, not like “I-i-i-i love you-u-u” XD

The writing could definitely use some work

Not everything is that easy to talk about or easy to put into words, at least with English as a second language ¯_(ツ)_/¯ (Tho yea, the tiger could use some more work put into, it is extra one-dimentional and boring)

Submitted(+1)

I didn't know English was your second language. That makes it even more impressive! If you ever want to collab with an English native to work on your script, let me know!

Developer

How do I find you, though? There are a couple of tumbleweeds on your creator page…
