I really like this idea, and I think it could be a lot of fun but I couldn't progress to save my life. I tried running the errands a few times but I could never get to the third queen in time. At best I'd reach the fence but wouldn't have enough time to get around it and talk to her and that's while walking away from the queens during their dialogue. Maybe it's a move speed issue since I could only run when I was going diagonally, but the time frame to get to each queen was way too short. And that's made worse by the fact that you have to take small detours to eat and drink, and that you don't know for sure what direction the queens are from you. None of these features are bad on their own, of course, but I don't think they're balanced well for a new player. Hopefully this doesn't come off harshly, I just wanted to give thorough feedback.

The T posing tho

Something about the T posing queens was funny haha. I wouldn't have minded a map or camera controls to better see where to go though.

I love animal crossing and I like survival games, therefore I really liked your idea! The world is colorful and I loved the small details, like the flowers (and the queen in the skybox :D ). The UI is simple, but it's easy to understand. 

I think it would be a good idea, if the player could control the camera. Since the queens have names, you could've put their names above their head (or something like this).

All in all it's a nice little game! :)

fun!

Hi Tactoe, I liked your game concept - simple yet fun. The world is bright and vibrant, and the dialog put a smile on my face. I would have appreciated camera control with the mouse, as I often found myself running blindly towards the camera which made it difficult to locate the queens. Nice job!

You did a great job ! And I love the idea uwu
