Hey there! I couldn't find your Discord name right now. If you get this in time, maybe you want to join in on the Stream today (1st of August) at 20:00 GMT and share some thoughts about your game!
Very cool! I really like the art style for both backgrounds and game objects that is a bit different than many others! Was neat to have a sort of impressionist view of the characters. Especially liked the controls depicted as part of the background.
Glad you like it! We tried to avoid using UI that feels too artificial. Unifying the background and the visual cues harmoniously is something that we had trouble with.
The art style is really beautiful! I'd recommend allowing the player to aim the bow, since sometimes the flies are a bit too high for the arrows, but other than that it's great, nice story too!
Thank you for your feedback! The height of the bow is certainly a problem that needs fixing.
nice use of URP! Love the hand painted art style. Some particles and screenshake would have been a welcome addition to make everything nice and juicy, but really solid entry! You should be proud!
Thank you so much! It means a lot to us.
Beautiful lighting and art, very well done! The only minor issue I noticed is that I felt that the fly flies just a tad too low for the bow to hit it sometimes when following you.
Thank you! The mechanics of the fly definitely needs some more work. We appreciate your feedback!
These backgrounds are gorgeous! The lighting effect on the characters looks very good too, how'd you make that? Solid game overall.
Thanks! The lighting effects are made with 2D lights under Unity's own Universal Rendering Pipeline.
I found the writing cute and witty! More puzzles and less walking would have been nice, but overall I think this is a great submission!
Thank you! It means a lot to us.
Great stuff. Took me a second to get my head around the mechanics, but it was fun carting the different characters around and dumping them places to go back for the other. Nice music and background art too!
I agree this game can be confusing at times. Thank you for playing!
