WOW this game is absolutely gorgeous... I love the art direction and the sound design. Phenomenal visuals with an adorable storyline and gameplay. Great character designs that accompany the world that yall have developed! The only minor things I would suggest would be tuning the player controls a bit and explaining the damage/water droplet system. Otherwise, phenomenal game! Would love to see this developed further beyond the game jam :)

AAAH! Thank you so much! As one of the artists on the team, it means so much to hear such glowing feedback and I will absolutely be passing this on to the rest of the team! Definitely agree the player controls need some tuning and there are mechanics that need a better introduction though!
We have so much lore behind the scenes for this droplet it's not even funny...
AAAAAA! Good news is that some of us do plan to keep working on the game slowly (Not nearly at the pace we were doing for the jam), which is super exciting! The lore was stuff that we came up with while we were working, and it went into who used to live at the place, how the tools came to life, and how they want to go to the stars because they want to reunite with the people who used to live there. It got strangely heartbreaking, but we love some bittersweet lore in our silly raindrop game.
Even if development doesn't go beyond fixing this build, I defo will probably doodle art and concepts featuring my interpretation of the lore and timeline.
