It was a really cool experience, but I kept waiting for the sun to come up or something. It was clearly night and nothing in the game looked like it does in the screenshots.
Only after completing it I realized something in the graphics settings was screwing up. It seems that only changing the Overall Quality button changes things and when that is set to medium or low it looks "ok", otherwise I get something like the picture below.
I mean it's still cool and moody, but I don't think it's the intended experience even if I enjoyed it 😅
My graphics card is a Radeon RX 5700 in case that means anything. I don't remember seeing similar bugs in other games on this machine.

This is really neat! I got stuck somewhere around figuring out what to do with the hoop and the rolls of... tape?
My main gripe is the control of the camera, it's very shaky and jittering for me, especially when flapping the umbrella. But it's really cool to just mess around with the physics and try things out :)
Carrots and Cream v1.2!
I knocked some rust off my old jam game for a laugh. Carrots and cream is a very short little experience about the violence of nutrition. Perhaps it's a horror game? Not sure.
Fixed bugs, updated graphics and now has a paid version that includes a secret ending and achievements!
And you get a Steam key if you need those sweet, sweet achievements on Steam too.
Web version has bugfixes and updated graphics and is still free!
Very nice! The game locked up on me though in the [Spoiler?] second room you talk to the shop owner. I brought an item from the shop and the whole thing locked when I showed that to her, she didn't say anything and I couldn't get out of the state again, tried pressing everything.
Will give it another shot later on I really dig the mood!
Oh no!
It's strange that neither the download or the browser version works for you. Do you see the menu? The game does start with a blank screen and just audio for a few seconds so maybe you just need to wait a bit?
But the crash shouldn't happen. I'd like to know what OS and browser you're using if you don't mind and I'll look into it. :)
Very cool experience. Made me really uncomfortable at first for some reason, so if that's the intention, well done! ;)
I really dig the way it opens up and shows you a bigger and bigger weird world as you progress. Gives a really good feeling of more understanding and control over the situation even though it's so abstract.
I did have some issues reading the text, it was often very hard to find the right angle for the blur to sharpen without the text clipping through something. Not sure if the effect is dependant on screen resolution or aspect ratio, when I compare with the screenshots here my play-through seemed much more blurry
Hey! Not sure if you still have this issue, I found this thread by looking for a solution myself.
I fixed the "mixed active content" error by switching to UnityWebRequest instead off the WWW class I was using. Seems the WWW thing defaulted to http regardless of what you wrote in the URL. At the same time I forced my server to only accept https, I did these at the same time so I'm not sure if the force https thing is needed. Hope it makes sense :)

Wow this is definitely one of the most impressive Bitsy games I've played. Doing some interesting things with the engine and the writing and graphics are really good.
(It did completely bring my browser to its knees, though. Maxing out the CPU so it pretty much locked up Firefox all the while it was playing. I'm guessing some of the mods for Bitsy don't play too well with Firefox. Didn't break anything though and the game itself seemed to play fine :)
