This is so relaxing and fun! I loved walking around the little map and discovering there were more places to go than I thought at first. Also, the endless falling that happens when you walk in the water was surely unintentional but I kind of love it haha. Two other bugs I noticed, one being that Rodney and I started talking about Lorelei when I had not yet encountered anyone named Lorelei, and the other that he told me I didn't have enough gold for the fishing rod upgrade even though I have 255 gold.

But yeah, echoing what was said below about the writing--it's great! I've loved all the character interactions I've had so far and was impressed how much conversation there is.

Off to play more now!

Thank you so much! Yeah, the endless falling is unintentional, but also a bit Portal-esque - its part of why the respawn button was added to the main menu! Yeah, the mention of Lorelai is purely because I ran out of time - the pink character next to him was originally supposed to have at least an intro ready, but it just missed the submission window. Such a pain you ran into that upgrade bug too - you’re not the only one who has, and I definitely want to fix that up in a post jam update.

So glad you like the writing though! The game really is trying to be a platform for that, so it means a lot all the interactions feel that good.

And of course, its always a wonderful compliment when somebody wants to keep playing - thank you so much!
