Very cute idea! I included it in my Virtual Pet Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out. :)

Super solid entry once I figured out what to do.
I'm sad to say I was one of the people who didn't take the time to read the instructions right away.

I would suggest putting control images right in the game because if I've learned one thing from game jams is that nobody (apparently including myself :( ) reads the directions.

That being said though once I got into it it was super enjoyable. Music was excellent, concept was unique and very fun. John Dough is hilarious!

Great job!

Thanks for the feedback. Last game jam I told myself to pay more attention to tutorial or similar but I utterly failed again this time too :)

It happens. And you'll get better every time!

Took me 2 deaths to realise that you can switch views with a/d, didn't fully understand the mechanics

Thanks for the feedback - I know I did a poor job of "tutorials" on this, gotta to think about that sooner next time

I did not fully understand what to feed the dough, but a charming concept!
