Nice and relaxing, but at the same time heartbreaking,  the music is too sad. I feel like something bad is gonna happen.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback and for playing! I was going for a sad feeling, hopefully I didn't make you too sad!

Submitted

Interesting game 

Developer

Thanks!

Aww, I read your devlog, so sorry about your losses!  I love the music in this game, and I like how the large amount of open space really fits in with that theme of separation and searching....like you know somewhere your friends are out there, but you have to work to bridge that separation.  It fits in with the starkness of the music.  I don't know if that was the intent or I'm rambling, but it seemed like an interesting layer to the game!

Thanks for your detailed response and taking the time to read the devlog. Honestly that was the feel I was trying to go for with the game, so I'm glad it came through. The open space adding to that was an unintended way or reinforcing that but a good thing to keep in mind for future games.

Developer

Thank you

I gather from the comments here that more obstacles spawn as you progress, but I found the area so empty initially that it was hard to tell I was moving at all: a patterned floor rather than a solid purple colour might be a big help there. I also found the controls rather floaty for a guinea pig, given that they tend to move quite purposefully! Still, good to see a serious take on the jam theme.

Thanks for the detailed feedback. I really appreciate it.

Submitted

Very relaxing as other people mentioned, but I did find the controls a little bit sloppy, but that's just a feeling, great game nonetheless.

Developer

I agree the controls could use updating, but thank you for the feedback.

Very relaxing and touching tribute to your friends. The music is soft and pleasing. Nice work!

it as looping after collecting 2 of her friends

Developer

Yeah you have to find them a few times and more obstacles spawn. it's not an endless loop.

ok

Aw, this was a nice tiny entry for the jam. Very somber, music definitely set the mood appropriately.

Developer(+1)

I was a little worried about a somber little tribute game to some departed pets, but I'm really glad people are enjoying it. Thank you.
