I think your cat may need to see the vet. Took me a while to figure out what I needed to do, but that sounds about right for getting kids to do chores. Doing an outline/highlight of the 'target' items may help with readability. This is a really good start though and the art was done very well.

Nice pixel art. It was a bit hard to figure out what to do. The ending was... quite a suprise. Good job!

Thanks for the feedback. It’s definitely something we can improve on next time. And thank you for playing!

I was just going along, figuring out how the game worked, noting the janky pickup mechanics, the emotionally distant parent, and such.
Then that cat. Geez. Terrifying. Really caught me off guard.
