We apologise for the late review:


GDD

Very well-structured document. It went into details on every single development topic. I would like to see more images of the amazing assets you made and a timeline of development; it really helps us to get into the dev's head.

Gameplay

The gameplay is straightforward; I enjoyed myself with its simplicity; the classic RPG mechanics are there. Out of the bat, I felt that the gameplay was there more to showcase what you crafted. The writing is very well done, whimsical, and funny; it had so many absurd things that left me convinced that chaos was the norm in this work. You did well on leaning into your creativity.

Art

I felt that the art was very personal. It's very charming and one of the highlights of the game. As funny as the writing is, the art complemented and elevated it. An almost perfect mix.

Sound design

The BGM is vibrant; I can see the inspiration you had crafting it. As for the SFX, it hit the marks; every action felt distinct.

Last thoughts

Very fun little game. You have a gift for silly writing. It meshed so well with the art, that even stretching the theme to its limit, it worked very well.

Now tell me, did Grob got to confess to his wife?

The writing was a lot of fun to read!
This feels a bit like the lighthearted prequel to my game, before Moodag turns into a complete villain and gets banished into the void xD
