How does your game fit the theme?
Playing with awkward physics driven raccoon paws leaves the player with only an abstraction of direct control.

I think you guys knocked it out of the park. Great art, great audio, and a hilarious setting. The controls are challenging and fit the theme well, just needs some more polish as others have indicated but a impressive result for 48hrs.

This is an amazing idea, a hilarious and compelling story, a terrific amount of visual polish, and really a gem just waiting to happen. 

I would say it's unplayable in this state, however. There is no indication of where the paw will land, or even where it will go when I move the mouse. In a post jam version, where the lack of control is more about stopping the 3 raccoons from acting out of line and remaining uncaught, I would love to play this!

Keep up the good work, and best of luck to you!

really clever idea! my only gripes were it felt overly difficult to control the raccoon hands tho - even doing a mundane task like picking up toiletpaper used up almost all my time, and it felt near impossible to actually click the right places on the map.


That all being said, the theme/spritework are superb!

This is really great and cute. It was really hard but that made it more fun! The art is great too.

Incledible job, impecable art style and presentation overall. Even the UI was the cutest thing I saw all week. The only critic I have is the controls are soooo floaty, I would be super frustrated if it wasn't for me being 3 racoons in a trenchcoat and all. Superb job, well done!

This s incredible. I love it. The controls are pretty wacky, but that's the point. I wish you could see the hand do a grabbing motion like you can see it do a pointing motion. The items sometimes slide around on their own like they are on ice. However, it's still a super fun game and i absolutely love it.

I like this game but I now hate park rangers, they came as I was dragging the last coin in
Love it and fantastic job to all involved!

So close, but so far away. Thanks for the review!

This is a really neat idea for a game! It feels a bit like surgeon simulator. Also, the audio and graphics are awesome!

The controls feel awkward, but I think that is kind of the point. It feels a bit like surgeon simulator.

One big thing I noticed is that I couldn't figure out how to close the game. If there is a close button, you may want to advertise it more. Otherwise, try adding one! The other thing was that it felt like the controls didn't always work insanely well. I would press W or S sometimes but nothing would happen. Also , when I tried to pick up toilet paper this one time, I couldn't pick it up at all.

Overall, your game is a pretty great game, and with some changes to the controls so they are more consistent, it could be improved greatly.
