What a beautiful little game and unique concept. Perfectly executed, just the right length for a jam entry, and a perfect match for the theme. Top marks from me.
I love that you get extra dialogue when repeating interactions. I went to the book first and thought it was so cool to include that, then I went to the dog toy and saw that you also built-in a prompt to the player just in case they weren't checking twice.
Incredible you made all the art and music. Really well done. One small thing, I think you forgot to put-in the updated viewport dimensions on your itch page for the build. I played fullscreen from the start and it looked great, but then I went back to see what happens if I didn't remember who I was first and left early. I didn't maximize the window, so my view was cut in way tight.
