Such a beautiful game! Can't believe this hasn't been played more! One thing I would suggest is having a pause menu with the controls visible as for where I was walking such a distance I had forgotten some of the controls, that and when I stood still the player was sliding ever so slightly on the spot. Other than that, this was a brilliant submission, great job!

Thanks for your sweet comment!
I did have a similar idea for showing the controls in the pause menu (along with which animals you could speak to) but in the end I left that up to the scraps of paper at the beginning of the level to bake them into the world instead of adding more UI. But I do agree with you that maybe there was just one too many buttons--the game could have maybe done without the sprint just to streamline things more.
And yes, my player controller was a bit janky in how I implemented movement and gravity... definitely something I want to iron out :)
Thanks again for playing!
