Art, voice over, gameplay, all amazing! Only wish there was a way to make the "dialogues" a bit faster but otherwise great job!

Art style is great! Very cute and wholesome. I enjoyed it very much!!! (Also love the gibberish!) Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 7:24:40
The art style is the CUTEST! <3 However, wish there was a skip button for dialogues to make things faster
very creative. very visually pleasing. i like the sound too. the dialogue is a little long, makes me impatient, i was kind of disappointed when the second level was the same, untangling the brain, but more complex, i was looking forward to a different kind of task. nice creation though, i will remember this game for sure.
Thanks for submitting this to the stream! I like the unique idea and the play on words with the title is pretty funny. It's cool to gradually untangle the mess in your patients' brains. I also really loves the character sprites and the gibberish dialogue. Especially when the penguin shrinks down/comes back.
Great job!
It's a really strong entry! Your creative approach to the theme and building the mechanics is impressive. Good effort, congrats!
I have no idea on how you made those lines renderer and knotted but it's very very well made ! Also the little introduction at the start of the game and the animation (and voice) of the characters talking are so funny !! Good job !!
Very nice presentation. My only concern is that it felt like there were no decisions for me to make: I wasn't playing, so much as I was simply moving forward. Satisfying, nonetheless.
Well done! This game is charming and has lovely artwork. I enjoyed untangling these patients' problems!
Really great game, the art looks great and the concept is spot on. The only real issue I found was you could just spin your mouse in circles to unravel the knots.
Wow, what an awesome game! I love the double interpretation of the theme. Plus, I can't get over those dialogue sounds ahahaha
Such a cool concept, and everything was really nice and polished.
If I was to give any criticism, it would just be that I thought the dialog bubbles lasted too long, and the strings were a bit buggy at times. It was a great game though and you guys did an amazing job. Very well done!
Nice concept with very high quality execution. Good Job!!
Great game designed! I love the idea that the scaling can really sovle something ( that we really need in the real life ) that's a good wish!
omw this is such an adorable concept! I wish real therapy was like this xD my one suggestion is to maybe have an option to turn the sound down a bit
Cozy and relaxing game. Cute art and funny voice-actoring :D Sounds a little too loud, but decreasing my mixer volume solved it. Remind me Psychonauts game :D Also you have intresting theme interpritation. Bad thought also scales themselves in our mind too, maybe you thought about it too when thinking about concept.
Wish you best luck, had fun and heartwarm feelings during playing your game.
Super cute 2D art ! I felt like the ratio actual gameplay / watching the animation was a little unbalanced but that could be a creative choice. Maybe when you untangle the string it could still catch the neurons to make it more difficult instead of going through them once you’ve escaped on node. Again, very beautiful, congrats !
