This is a nice game ! I love the idea of becoming a spring keeper and the cute message haha
I wasn't sure about how to play the game but it turned out that the game loop is cool :D
I would be curious to see more about this game, have you planned to do update ?
Good job !

Developer

Yes. I am thinking about fixing all the major issues and then take it a step further and expand the game. Thank you very much.

Took a long while to figure out the rules and had to go to the text to understand what was what. It's a cool prototype. The energy amount was a bit too short and I constantly wanted to do more things. the theme of a Spring Keeper is nice. Other minor improvements to make: the music restarts every time you open a pop-up which you can solve placing the music player in an autoload. All in all nice small game. Keep it up!

Developer

Thank you very much. About the music thanks for the tip gonna keep that in mind for next time.

Love the concept but the lack of visual feedback makes it hard to understand if I did the right thing sometimes

Developer

Thank you.

Strangely addictive and with a good flow despite the quirkiness of the controls. It's funny how some games here look so polished and this one's pretty simple but I spend a good time on it.

Developer

Thank you!

Cute concept and design! I think changing the controls to  include either ENTER for progression or the left mouse button would be good rather than having both since I had to keep switching the placement of my hands to use both.

Developer

Thanks. Having the controls like that is way better. Thank you for the feedback.

I really like the concept! it was a bit hard to figure out, I think some text would help, but I'm aware of the time constraints haha

Developer

Thank you :)

This is really nice, as others mentioned, it took a bit to figure out what to do, but I had fun with it after that. I did run into an issue there where I wasn’t able to use the heater, just nothing happened when I interacted with it. Could have been user error though :D Great job on this!

Developer

Thank you. Going to check that heater later.

Nice game! It was a bit hard to figure out what to do, and where to do it, but it has some good potential. 

Developer

Thank you very much.

the games looks nice and is cozy, but after a few days i still found it hard to understand what to do. i think it would be good to have some arrows / guidance on the first day on what to do, but i know its hard to include in such a short time!! congrats anyway, looks like a lot of work has been put into the game
