Lovely Ina and tako sprites! I love the paper aesthetic you went for!
It was fun exploring the area and talking to the little takos.
Some points for improvement:
- The rescue counter is hard to see on light backgrounds. Consider adding an outline to the text or overlaying it over a darker semitransparent box.
- The dialogue bubbles don't scale properly with the screen size, which can make them look huge, but it's a minor thing that can be fixed after the jam.
- The same as above for the game over screen. It should scale with the screen size.
- Try adding music and sounds to round up the experience!
- Having takos with specific "color needs" or placing them in higher locations adding a platforming element would add some variety to the game loop. Maybe you can unlock new colors by completing tasks as you progress in the game. :)
