Incredibly charming design language and while I know the player is a child themselves, I did get reminded of my days working with some big personalities in daycare, hehe. I'd love to know more about the thought process when coming up with the narrative and how much of yourself you've put into these experiences! :)

I have to admit, I was immediately impressed by the page turning, lol. But even more impressive was the writing! I gave this game a couple playthroughs once I figured out what I was doing, and I noticed that some of the characters had different dialogue chains upon first interaction, perhaps depending on the day or location, shows a lot of work went into the dialogue. Sometimes the kids' diction seems a little advanced for their age, but the characters are likable and their personality types are easy to pick up on. The quick pace of the timer did rush things along a little, I would have preferred to have some more time to play around. I also wonder what the purpose of the schoolwork is since it seems you should really be ignoring it to talk with your friends. Overall, fantastic artwork and presentation with really cute storytelling that did remind me of my own time in school at points.

This game is so sweet, I love it! It perfectly depicts a little story through the eyes of a child. The artstyle being reminiscent of a kid's drawing works incredibly well, the gameplay is simple yet endearing — I especially had fun drawing with the crayons on the walls. All the characters and interactions were cute, and I like that they all gift you something to decorate your room with. My only complaint is I wish there was more time to interact with others. It would have been nice to give the player more time while also including a skip button if the player just wants to skip over that section. Aside from that, this is one of my favorite entries, phenomenal work! Kudos to your team!

That was wonderful! I love the decision to make all the assets with crayon, that was a really charming touch. I didn’t quite get the hang of talking to people in time – I kept thinking that typing, or playing with the marbles, etc. would result in people being friendlier to me but I realize now that of course that’s the whole point of the game! Very true to my real-life experience though; I’m only ever really capable of making friends if there’s a shared activity (and even then only quite slowly).

Really well done on all the art and sounds (getting to draw on the wall was a little messy at my resolution but really impressive!), good simple design with a lovely story, thanks for submitting it.

I love my room hehe. If I was remotely as charming as our main character, my childhood would've felt different. First Moves is a touching love letter to the child within all of us <3

That’s such a unique game! I really liked the small details like dialing the phone and playing a game on the computer. GG 🎉

Love it and my 4 y.o. also loved it!! Such a short and sweet experience! I love the hand drawn art!

I love the artstyle!! reminds me of crayon drawings in childhood!!

The page flipping book was SOOO SATISFYING!! was wondering how you did it :o

I like the interaction between the npcs and how I can try and the hearts up! Although I feel the time could be a little longer, sometimes I didnt had time to read because I wanted to interact with the npc as much as possible before the timer ends.

I love the overall Artstyle, really fits the game! :D

It is truly heartwarming for a piece to be drawn by hand. Unfortunately, calling the authorities appears to do nothing.
