  • Pretty nice game! Minor bug, when you try and hug someone in mid-air, the animation is cancelled and you're stuck standing in-place.

Did you include your Game Design Document in your downloadable files?
Yes

Tell us about your game!
Mechanics include spreading happiness by hugging others and returning lost items to them. The story is yet to be fleshed out but we are thinking along the lines of the main character (Comforter) had someone bring them out of a hard spot, but fell to a hard spot themself. The Comforter, now full of grief for not being able to do the same to that other person, is bent on helping others around them, trying to find peace with their grief. Controls are simple, W or space to jump, A for left, D for right, and E to interact (currently used to hug or drop items). We plan on adding many more levels and features after the jam, but wanted to keep it short to focus on the playability and enjoyability with the limited time.

Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
Yes

Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes
