  • Your thumbnail doesn't reflect how amazing your game looks! Haha. I was totally stunned when I opened it up, it looks great; definitely felt like an ink/watercolor painting. The concept of splitting and recombining characters to solve the puzzles was really interesting and fun, definitely twisted my brain around. A way to select what object you were interacting with would have made the gameplay feel even better! --- 28/40

This game is really cool! The mechanic of combining kanji symbols works really well. I got stuck trying to solve "pasture". I have the symbol for "place" but I can't figure out where the other one is. It kind of looks like the symbol for "cow" to me. I don't know kanji though, so I'm probably missing something.

I think that having some nice music or sound effects could really improve this game. I hope I'll be able to complete it later, but I need a hint first ;)

Hey Signol, thanks for the feedback!

As for a hint, one cow from the pasture is on the loose and finding it is the key to restoring the pasture.
We definitely plan on adding sound effects and music (including visual bugs + some narrative clarification) when we polish this up!
