I had fun playing your game, and I thought the concept was really cute. The doodles for the characters are also really charming. And even though the hugging mechanic makes the platforming a little janky, I thought it was really unique.

The game was super adorable and the music was so sweet. I seriously had some great vibes while playing this game : )

That music is very great, and the sprite work for the huggers is very good. The way the people clung to you was very fun and I can't stop messing around with creating new shapes out of the hugging.

Very good vibes on this game =) Music and graphics are so sweet but one thing you can do to make it better is add cooldown between stop hug and a new hug I think this can make the game more easy to control and less frustrating and frustration doesn't really fit your game ;)

Someone said so but thats Wake Me Up When September Ends xd but nice game overall! got stuck a lot in the platforms with my huggable friends though!

I liked the game concept and definitely felt wholesome. The art style was minimalistic but it worked. Did you play that cover? The instrumental is definitely "Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day lol. The music did work nicely for the game though lol

Got stuck at a part but this is such a cute game! The simple style definitely adds to it!

Having to leave your friends behind is always sad, and I found the mechanics to be fun although a little unresponsive at times. Such as jumping with a group and trying to separate would cause it to lose all momentum of your jump. The Music was very nice and calming. A lot of people already mentioned the green day type vibe lol. Overall this was fun. Thank you for the experience.
