Game Description
Your ambitions in lunar photography begin here! Play as a curious bat on his mission to take a full fledged photo of the moon. Run, Climb, Glide and Snap your way through an array of obstacles while interacting with the cheeky characters in the neighbourhood. Can you collect all five moon cakes? Say cheese! ...or don't. But hey, they say moon is made of cheese!
How does your game tie into the theme?
Moon, photography of moon, collecting moon cakes... moon.

Stunning animation and artwork. Charming characters. Great work :)
Cheers!
Really nice game ;)
Thanks for playing. :)
Blown away by quality. I'm pretty much speechless. Keep up the great work!
Thank you very much!
What a beautiful game, congrats. I only got 4 out of 5 mooncakes though.
The only thing I can suggest is that the area to talk with the NPCs was a little bigger.
Thanks for playing and for the advice, it's very common feedback. :)
Most of the mooncakes are easy but I wanted to have 1 tricky one, in case it made people play again!
Well, it worked! xD I found the last one on the second try. :p
Really cute! The animations were great, the gameplay solid, and the puzzles simple but entertaining! Had a good time chilling to the tunes too. Loved it!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the experience. :)
I really enjoyed solving all those puzzles with the great atmosphere :)
Also the photo-mechanic is an interesting way of "collecting hints" and unlock new conversations.
Awesome submission!
Thank you for playing and commenting!
What a beautiful and cute game!
Thanks for playing. :)
So cute!
Cheers!
Very cute game
Thx!
Very impressed with the visuals and animations.
I agree with what other people said about showing that you can interact with someone/something more clearly. It took me a couple of back-and-forths until I noticed I could talk with the other characters.
But overall great submission!
Thanks for playing, and commenting with feedback. :)
Wow, such an incredible game ! It's funny because I also made a game with a bat, but not the same type :) But yeah it was fun to try to solve the problem of the villagers, beautifully drawn and animated. To improve the game I think an highlight of object/characters you can interact with (I took some time to figure out that garbage can be collected to discover geyser)
Thanks for playing, and thanks for the tip!
Really enjoyed the game, really dig the visual and audio.
Cheers. :)
Awesome, awesome sound, and outstanding art! Fun little game to play had a great time--super impressive for a week of work!
Thank you very much. :)
Lovely game, quite relaxing to play. Small dialoges but interesting to read
Cheers!
Stunning. I always look forward to your entries and was so glad to see this. I love this so much. The art is incredible, and the music/sound effects are perfect. I love the unique take on the theme, and the use of the wild cards. All of the characters were really endearing and the writing was excellent. Incredible submission again. Congrats!
Thanks heaps for your generous comment! :) Glad you enjoyed playing it through.
Very cute idea and solid execution of the photos, made even better by the great art.
My personal experience was a little awkward in the sense that I kind of just explored and took some pictures at first and then half of characters I talked to didn’t have any set up, they just jumped to me completing the task without any explanation. It would have been less jarring if they said their initial dialog on the first interaction regardless and continued into the secondary dialog if there was already a relevant photo. Mostly a nitpick, though. Great job!
Thanks for playing and the feedback.
That's a simple change which makes a lot of sense! :)
This is just incredible, art, dialogue, tight metroidvania... Just well done, great game. Loved Toem so loved this !
Oh we hadn't heard of Toem, it looks amazing, thanks for the tip.
Cheers for playing and commenting. :)
I was hoping to win Graphics category, but this art is in another level. This game is a complete experience, a finished product. Nice job.
Thanks very much, yes some talented artists (not me) were involved!
omg I love the art
and some of the character designs are so cute i mean uhh aesthetically pleasing
Thank you for playing and commenting. :)
so charming! The characters are so well animated and the atmosphere is impeccable.
