Yooooo I like the handmade art it adds so much uniqueness to the identity and vibe to the game. Also impressive how you added a story, it makes the game much more immersive. You start off not really knowing why you are doing what you're doing, and then you slowly realize how you got to this position. I had to restart the game at some parts, so having the ability to pause the audio logs when they first play and being able to exit out might be a good feature, potentially. Also on my first run, I ran into a bug where once my first galaxy got to max chaos, I was able to type the name of the new galaxy, but I wasn't able to leave that screen. I'm not sure if that was jus me or if I did something weird, but I was stuck and had to restart. Also, if you drag the elements that you need to drag into Grotchen to under the galaxy instead, it will hide behind the galaxy icon and you won't be able to grab them since the galaxy icon is the top layer. I really like this concept though, and it's such a fun and creative idea to be in charge of your own universe via accepting pop-ups like that. I also enjoyed the cleaning the cannon mini game but wasn't sure how it related to making the universes. Overall, good job!

The handdrawn art style is really fun and cozy. The game has a very charming vibe coupled with the music. I enjoyed the chill mini games they were pretty fun and satisfying. Doing some UI fixes and changes as mentioned by other commenters would give it more polish but yeah other than that awesome entry!

Love the art style and doing everything through your desktop interface is super charming and nostalgic. The sound design really sells it too and the voice acting is awesome! I see that the credits not triggering is a known issue already, it's a shame but I'm sure that's an easy fix and you made a great experience regardless!

Cozy game about rebuilding the universe,the music was soothing and I enjoyed the minigame for cleaning gretchen the cannon.I also got stuck at where beardmage got stuck at but before that happened, I was enjoying the slower pace of this game compared to the other submissions so far

I think I got stuck :(

Really original concept ! I do like the chill aspect a lot ! If I may suggest a few things, the "Close" button on the audio log is black for me, it took me a while to figure out I could click it ! I guess it was not intended since other menus do have the red button. 

Subtitles would be much appreciated as well, it would help non-native english speakers a lot ! (Also, some folks just don't play with the sound on or with music on the side)

Anyway, I had a good time ! The voice acting is really well done and adds a lot to the mood. Good job !

This is fascinating, and the voice overs really sold it! I really loved the elements and the galaxy gameplay, and it kind of reminded me of Little Alchemy.

This is really fascinating art. I liked that it was (or felt like it was) painted in real life and not digitally. With so much AI art out there these days, this really stands out. 

I had a hard time getting started. I couldn't find the X to close the first window, and after that, I felt like I needed a few more visual clues or a tutorial. I never figured out what the chaos meter was for. 

Regardless, I liked it. It's different and a good jam game.

Super cool concept and great unique artwork! The voice overs were a nice touch. Are there currently only 4 audio logs or did I miss a way to progress? I need to know more about Gretchen! Some feedback:

- The gameplay itself got a little stale in terms of creating new galaxies and cleaning the cannon. Some sort of progression or new events to the galaxies would be great.

- I was unsure of the consequences of my choice for the galaxies and the significance of the chaos meter.

Other than that, it is a super unique and well made game! Adding more to it, and expanding upon the gameplay mechanics and you could have a real gem here. Great job!

Very interesting concept, and I really like your art style! The more cartoonish background actually makes the galaxy feel more real in a fun way :D

Really interesting game! I really love the artstyle. I find it nostalgic for some reason.

Very cool your game and the art is unique, very beautiful and different from the other art I have seen during this jam so far, congratulations :D
