Nice. Lovable pixels and sounds.
Kudos! However...
SPOILER:
WHile Jake could be a good pal, I was hoping for something more emotional. My father, maybe. Or a long dead dog of mine. A friend gone.
A courious giant-thing... dunno.
Really? I thought it was a great twist that added to the growing weird atmosphere of the world. Also, who's to say the giant-thing isn't the player's pet, dog, friend or father? :)
