For such a short period of time, the fake gameplay video looks incredibly polished!

I love the grapevine for health, and the paper cutout style of the characters and objects in the gameworld. And the animation when picking up the item is great! It's a very comfy looking cute sidescroller.

Solid work!

Developer

Thank you! :)

I looooove love love this. It's just flawlessly executed. And the cute main character doesn't hurt, either :D This one has a ton of potential to become an actual game, IMO

Developer

Thanks! :D

So cute!! I'm so surprised that you were able to pack so much visually into this entry. Including the concept art was such a nice touch! 

Developer

Thank you!

I had a lot of fun making this. Noon and I kept adding to it until it felt complete!

BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL!!! God the world and artstyle you've put together are super super pretty, I love the mixed media approach. Wanted to extend props especially to the camera movement during the pickup and the character movement at the start-- they're both feel very realistic haha

Thanks!
Noon was the one that thought we should try a paper mario style and also suggested using a woodrat. I thought about putting a little bit of gameplay. We both had a lot of fun on the project. :)
