We did the same thing but not as clever. Good job!

Lovely graphics and great music. Felt fun to swim around, too. 

Beautiful soundtrack, is it available to purchase?

Loved the premise and would be excited to see a more fleshed out version

 A bitesize introduction to my pixel-art comedy adventure game | Available for Windows

Bow and Dork share a joint presidency along with their Vice President GreyDorf. Everything seems pretty great until they realise they are low in the polls and actually have to do some work in order to be re-elected.

You play as Bow, a well-meaning lad with a big Bow. Solve puzzles and meet a cast of strange characters as you attempt to win a presidential election. Your friend Dork will always be around for tips (since he's figured out all the puzzles already, go figure). 

This demo features the introduction section of the game. Bow and Dork need to leave their holiday cabin in order to start their adventure, but they've gone and locked themselves in and lost the key. Perhaps you can convince GreyDorf to use a spell that will help?

Featuring an original orchestral soundtrack!

 This game is a work in progress. This demo is for feedback purposes so please provide feedback on all aspects.

I hope my fixes are adequate. I will be able to add more screenshots and maybe a trailer once I have access to my desktop again. Thanks again for the feedback and I hope you enjoy the demo if you have the time (and also a windows computer). 

Honestly I very much appreciate the time you took to provide all of that feedback you are a saint.

Hello Dark Dimension

This has been insanely helpful thank you so much. A lot of this will be hard to fix since it's such a bitesize section of the game that is available but there are also many things I can look at changing.

Hi! I'm farmerhoggit and I've been working on my very own point and click game. I've made a demo that I am very proud of but there is a problem. 

I am really struggling to get people interested in taking an interest or trying the demo. Even friends of mine keep putting it off (though the ones that have tried it very much enjoy it). 

So I am asking for feedback here, is the genre putting people off? Perhaps the screenshots and description are offputting as a first impression? 

Please have a look and let me know. I am very new to all this so any feedback will help a lot. If you have time to try the demo, that would be great too!

This is still happening to me i'm afraid. Had a controller plugged in and she walked to the left, unplugged it and she walked to the right. Can't play the game at the moment.

Unless they mean they exclusively use arrow keys! Foreign keyboards is definitely something I would have overlooked if I was releasing a game.

AZERTY keyboard?
