Haha clever story of the game! Who knew a child could be so courageous? Haha.

Developer

Thanks! It was fun coming up with the idea of the game, especially considering the relations it has to another game slimer37 and I worked on. Glad you liked the silly story!

Great game, with beautiful arts and sound! Very difficult in some instances (maybe i'm just not good lol) but I really enjoyed it. Keep up the good work! :D

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! This was my first commission job and I'm glad you liked it. :) p.s. lmao i cannot even get past the first couple of nights, they plan to revamp the closet door mechanic entirely

Its cute! The gameplay feels satisfying, though I don't get why Mother kept waking up.

Developer(+1)

Dinga (or Dinghy's mom) likely kept waking up due to the sound meter getting too high. The sound system definitely makes the game harder, alongside the long night lengths. I'm glad you found the game cute! I wanted the game to have a bit of that childish feel, like a kid having a late night adventure.

MacOS: "is damaged and can’t be opened" :(

Aw :(

We didn't test the Mac version, and it's possible it was either corrupted or built incompletelysorry about that!

Submitted

Yeah, Mac version is sadly also broken for me :/
I can really recommend trying to upload future game jams and projects as WebGL's (for browser) if possible, as it allows almost anyone to play.

Developer(+1)

Literally all our previous jams were solely browser games, so I have no idea why it never crossed our minds to do that!

This is a fun but difficult game.  Very finished.  Defending Mom from ghosts and monsters in the dark is a clever twist.

This is awesome, the sound and art are great. The gameplay is really good too. This is one of the most polished jam games I've ever seen. But, maybe a bit too difficult because I wasn't able to get past the second night. ( I'll come back to try again later!)

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! Seems like I’m not the only one stuck on the first couple nights!

Our artist, Yeofoxeon, is the only one of us so far to reach maximum difficulty (Night 6). You can blame him for the difficulty curve ;)
