Hmmm i guess I don't really understand the game, the movement was a bit clunky and I didn't really get any feedback on the actions I performed. When I "Turned on" the lamp for instance I didn't see a light, did it turn on or do I need to do something else? I think it was mostly me but a little introduction to the scene would have helped making things more clear.
Playing the web version, the lamp is the only thing that seems to do anything. From a UI perspective, I don't think that E and Q are necessary.
Like the others have said - you don't really get feedback for the actions you do, so it's hard to tell what is going on. Played the web version if that makes a difference.
Maybe it would be better to give some guidance on how to increase the value
Good start! The story behind the game is good and well written! Some more guidance would be appreciated however. I knew how the controls worked (good explanation on that), but I needed some more feedback on what each interaction did (a visual/audio change in the scene for example). Perhaps each item is very clearly (as in visually) related to an aspect of the pet's condition and can tell exactly what you need to change each condition. The game had good depth to it with all the interactive items. The graphics were good and I found there was quite a decent mood, but some more colour could liven it up. It's a good start and fits the theme well! Overall, good job! Keep it up!
Nice concept! This is a good start and hope you could make it better.
