  • A very unique, beautiful and inventive entry. Besides camera framing and a small presentation of elements, the theme was lost on me on this one. The gameplay however is very simple and funny, something I wuite enjoyed exploring. Had to give it a few tries since the game got stuck a few times on some of the interactions, but nothing major. A lot of art was done in a short amount of time and very consistently as well. I'm very excited to see more entries and more work from you!
  • The game has a very beautiful and interesting art style, one that reminds me a lot of older cartoons with a pixely twist. However, it wasn't exactly clear what I, as the player, should do at first. At a certain point, I understood that I needed to wake up the character by interacting with objects, but the order which they should be interacted wasn't clear, neither what was unlocking new rooms. At a certain point, I couldn't progress anymore. The game barely had sound or music, and the sound of steps didn't fully fitted with the art style. Regarding accessibility, the game does not seem to require dexterity, what is good, but it's vibrant tones make the contrast between the character and the scene very low, which would make it hard to tell apart for people with low vision, for example. I couldn't really understand why the game fits the theme, a suggestion is to try making this clearer in future jams should you do a much different interpretation of the theme. If there is no time for it, even explaining a bit on the game page on itch works. Overall, really found the game creative, but all the other aspects hindered my experience. Also, it is a good result for a beginner jam. Keep up improving!!
