Nice game, I like the clean art and music
Thank you!
The music in this game is really cool! I also loved the level art and the details contrast well with the lack of detail on the player sprite.
I was not expecting it to have sokoban type puzzles, but they were very well executed. I specially loved the chess one ;)
Very cool game!
Thanks! Appreciate it :D
Clean art, easy to figure out, and great puzzles. I'd play more of this :)
Thank you !
I am just amazed by the music -I loved it! Besides being super into the game I was trying to figure out whether the main character is a little octopus and the enemies were little possums. As I am a chess player, the chess room really got me, really creative and fun to play. By far one of my favorites: creativity, great music, fun characters and several puzzles. Congrats!
Thanks for enjoying the game! The character is just a person actually and the enemies were rats, but I like your imagination though haha.
Love the puzzle!
Thanks!
It is a beutiful game, but i get stucked in chess room, I even build ches default state here but stil i dont know how to solve it.
Hi, you just need to build the default config for chess, white pieces on the lower half, black pieces on the upper half :D
Beautiful game and excellent level design. Everything felt so interesting to look at and explore. The music and sound effects were top notch as well!
Thanks thanks
I like, both the music and gameplay
