aw this was cute. it has a kind of "glimpse into a world i don't know much about" energy that i always enjoy. wish it were a bit longer! but i like the assortment of thematically-appropriate tasks, done casually

Always love to see RPG Maker used in inventive ways- I don't think that this kind of side-on 2d is something they officially support yet, at least? But it's great, it feels really natural. I do wish there was a run button, especially for the second puzzle, but the rpgm click support helps, especially with the way u implemented doors. (For other players: click above any door to automatically walk over there and enter it.) The group shot at the end is so wholesome as well omg
also the first background music samples the katamari damacy melody at one point which gets u bonus brownie points
Such a busy day!
This was a short, fun and wholesome experience. I enjoyed all the different character designs, and the Rubber Wizard's dedication to their theme. The main character's walkcycle is also a lot of fun. Walking around in a catsuit just is like that sometimes.
There's a small handful of glitches, like being able to walk up the wall in the office with the nurse. (Pressing UP while behind the desk.) But for the most part it all works well, and it's pretty solid. Good job!
That was a neat little world to explore. The music and sound effects do a lot of work to establish the pace and ambiance! The pixel art is cute, since all of the areas are relatively small, it can probably be upscaled to 2x or even 3x size so players can see all the lovely details (I think there are addons for RPG Maker that can do that). I think that the gameplay as it is already fits the theme really well, so if you're looking to expand the game, just more days with new things happening around the workspace is all it can ever need!
