Cool! love this idea of having to collect resources to stay alive as opposed to exclusively dodging in these kind of "scrolling games" (Not sure what their technical name is). While the art is nice, I feel there's not enough contrast between the paper and the background, so the cracks become difficult to see. All in all though, Amazing job :)

P.S I got a high score of 10 :D

My high score was 24 :) took me many attempts (and a lot of luck)... that pen SCHMOVES when it gets going lol

To parrot the other comments, the visual polish is really great and appreciated. Just moving the pen around was satisfying to look at, both the wobble that came from it and seeing the line it produces.

It's a shame there wasn't enough time to give the same attention to the audio, as I could totally visualize similarly satisfying pen sounds playing dynamically as the game goes on.

Great entry!

thanks for playing! I spent way too long trying to make the pen feel reactive and fun to control so I'm glad it worked out well

the pen wobble as you go over the wrinkles is a nice touch :P

highest score I managed to get was a 9 - my finger fu is weak.

thank you for playing my game! I didn't get much time to balance and test the game, and so it's really unfair and difficult. Getting 9 is pretty impressive
