I was disappointed nothing happened at the end :(

Nice art though, and it ran without crashing which is more than I can say for a lot of these games. Not quite there as far as a game but you show promise. :)

Cute, even though art styles didn't mix very well in my opinion

Cute fox and responsive controls... The ones I could work out. For some reason I couldn't find the key to put down apples in my den, so I didn't get very far!

Nice art but really too unfinished to comment on. I grabbed a couple of apples and got them back to my den. Should spend a few days and finish it up just so you go through the whole process. be a shame to leave it unfinished.

The art style was quite nice, somehow the smooth background graphics go well with the blocky solids. :)

It was pretty good. The background looked really cool, but the main sprite looked a little bland/

I have to agree - there's not quite enough here to make it a fun game in it's own right. The world is pretty enough, which made it interesting to explore - but the process of having to bring individual items back to the shelter one at a time became a little tedious, and I was disappointed when there was no reward at the end!

Art and basic movement mechanics are good, though, and as the previous poster suggested, there's certainly potential here =]

Nice graphics! But it's boring to be honest.

No real gameplay here but the fox is very cute, I love the animation when he stands still for a while. You should make another game with this graphics or expand the gameplay of the one you already have.

I love the fox!
So cute :D

Nice style but just need a little more to do in the game.

The background is beautiful! The clash of styles is a good idea, but it's too much clashing when the player is near the border of the map and sees the white 'void' outside the map.

Thank you for all of your comments, we are updating the game based on your feedback. You say there isn't much to do in-game but what would you like to see implemented?

nice and original

I liked the exploration value of the game. It was fun finding all the supplies. I don't know if that's what it was supposed to happen, but when I gathered all 10, the game just froze. Some kind of a "win" screen would have been nice.

I like that there's an idle animation for the fox! The problem was, I only noticed it because I was having a hard time figuring out how to drop the food when I got back to the den & was having to try each key in turn. Some instructions would be good. Also, why 'q'? You've used 'space' to pick up, why not the same to drop? I thought the fox was a really nice character, could imagine him(?) appearing in a sequel...

The game is nice and the background looks really good. Good job!

pabloalexandre31 2013-05-04 02:55

Cute fox. I found the game a little boring after a time, maybe some elements for diversify the gameplay could change this.

barkergames 2013-05-11 02:10

I really enjoyed the artwork! Great job!

dector 2013-05-15 09:32

Like foxy waiting animation. Good job.
