Being able to move the lamp was unintuitive to me, I didn't figure it out on my own. It also seems that for me the music turns off as soon as I start the game. Pressing radio buttons does not turn music on for me - is that how it should be?

Hey Phindie, thanks for playing! There are two buttons on top of the radio to switch channel but first you need to turn the radio on which is done by the button the surface facing the player, does that help?
I've been thinking about how we might make it more obvious that the lamp can be moved, I've been thinking of letting it initialize in a more obviously draggable position, let's say to the left of the egg and much more closely... But deadline is deadline 🤷♂️ what do you think?
Oh no! You'll have to do a few different things:
- Move the lamp cap around to change the temperature of the egg
- Turn the lamp off if the lamp is furthest away and the egg is still too hot
- Change the base
- Add to the moisture.
- Turn the radio on or off
- Change the radio station between classical music, jazz, and metal.
It will roll off when two things don't met its standards, but there's only a 30% chance it does... Though I do admit sometimes it seems to happen a lot in a row which is annoying.
The first egg needs the lamp to be the furthest away, the nest base, no music and humidity around ~50% to hatch.... When it's almost done, it will hint that it's too hot which means you'll need to turn off the lamp. It should hatch within a minute with these tips :)
15' of tending to the egg and still coudnt get it to hatch ;(

Oh man, this game is amazing. At first I didn’t understand what I needed to do and the blue color for the needs-light-icon threw me off a bit because I associated it with the spray.
When I saw that first egg pulse I had probably the biggest ahah moment I’ve had in a long while. I found it pretty funny hatching the “lil willow”. Unfortunately my browser tab crashed when I got to the, ironically metal, unicorn egg :D.
Really inspiring work!

Melinda's Magical TavernThank you for the kind words! I'm very glad that you were able to figure it out, that 'aha' moment figuring out the entire controls and moving parts in the room is something we really wanted with this
I guess the frostflake isn't too obvious in the game, and other notifications could be more straightforward as well... Were you able to figure out quickly that you could move the lamp?
Haha I love this so much, I am pretty terrible at keeping the eggs happy! It's a fun idea and I think it's been executed really well

(UNFINISHED) A Few Small ThingsThis game brought me so much joy TT^TT It's so damn cute <3 And I loved all the comedic elements as well. That egg on the beach poster is my favorite. And thanks hun, for the inclusion of a *spoiler animal* for me ;* I can definitely see myself losing hours of my life playing this game on my phone lmao.
