I am always here for a dress-up game and this one was super cute.  The main menu and end screens didn't scale on my laptop and were cut off but the game itself was fully within the window.  Loved the pose changes for some of the clothing options and the overall dress-up mechanic worked great!

Notes from gameplay:

- Awesome main menu! Credits would benefit to be the same font as the start button

- Fun little intro comic! Cute music, adorable art. The lower-case t looks like an l (thought it read you have to slay)

- Credits music is a fun bop

- Nice game music

- Hendrik can POSE

- Background is a bit busy, distracts from Hendrik being fab

- Love the blue/purple galaxy print on the jacket

- Ripped jeans would be cool to have a spiderweb in the tears

- Adding shoes or hat removes the evening gown

Super cute! I had fun! Wonderful art!

I love it! The art style is really cute and gore-geous! I really liked this character! Nice work!

Super cute dress-up game! Took me back to my childhood days of the Internet.

I mentioned previously as a reply to Terry, but if there was a better indication that the book buttons on the Main Menu were meant to be clicked ie border highlight when hovering mouse or clearer displayed text, that would be nice! The art was very nice and I liked the music too! Maybe we get a sequel where Hendrik's little friend can come along! Great job!

Thank you!

And thank you for your feedback. I admit the book buttons should have been more clear, so that is something to think about going forward. And yes, a sequel may be on the horizon :D

Liked your art asset and can see the appeal but would of been nice to have a reason to change the clothing some narrative perhaps.

I'm about to include this in my feedback but in the Main Menu there are two storybook buttons, one that says "Why Hello There" which shows a four panel comic of the skeleton, Hendrik, being invited to a costume party. It's a bit hard to tell at first because at first glance the books look to be part of the background.

I will pop back on and have a look.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback :)

I agree that the narrative could have been more clear, so it's something to consider for the future

Very cute little dress up!  It seems to be a bit glitched when you select some shoes options it seems to override your clothing choices though!   

Developer

Thank you very much for the feedback!

I do apologise for the glitch oversight though, hopefully it didn't ruin the experience.

Very cute graphics! I'd love to play a game like this where you can earn money to buy different parts of the outfit and progress the storyline.

Developer

Thank you very much!

I really like the idea you've brought up, and possibly it could intergrated in a future version :)
