I think the take on the theme you did is quite unique given that I don't see any other claw-game-type submissions here. However, I think many areas could be improved here. For starters, the art I am personally not a very big fan of. I think the plushies are kind of cute, but I think the sprites for the people who come up to you and ask for plushies look bad and rather ugly. All of the assets also look like they were drawn either with MS Paint or with that drawing tool Scratch has. While this is not inherently a bad thing, I am not too big on this stylistic choice. I think some sort of audio or music would have also gone a long way here, as without it, everything feels rather empty and barebones. The gameplay is also rather short and not all too engaging or exciting. I think there is potential here despite my critiques, though. I encourage you to keep going. 4/10.

Hi, thanks for playing my game and leaving lots of feedback! This was my first time making a game where I also made the art, so I can agree about improving the art. My goal was simply to have non-premade art, so I just drew stuff quickly in a pixel program. I've started watching some videos on game art and pixel art and am going to try to improve for the next game, or maybe even replace some art in this one :) I also agree about the gameplay being pretty simple and boring, I'll have to think on that a bit more to figure out how to improve it.
