I absolutely loved the graphics on this game. The whole game gave me nostalgic vibes from paper mario for some reason lol.

Love it! Takes me back to the games I played as a kid. Really cosy feeling

Cute graphics and nice music. I think, the movement speed shoud be increased. It is a bit annoying to walk this slow through the train. But overall a good job!

It was quite a fun game to play and enjoy! I quite enjoyed the little voice responses the passengers had, and the idea behind the game itself!

Really eye catching art. Nice idea

Really fun. The graphics are great it's easy to learn and very unique. Well Done!

Nice, although i miss some feedback from train and ppl how well are they doing. Nobody died and i didn't provide food for long time :P

Nice idea ! I enjoyed graphics and music. Got a bit frustrated : once the train start to slow too much, I felt like I couldn't speed him again, even if I gave it all the coal of the world :( I think I would like to feel more the impact of coal level on the speed. Otherwiser nice game there ! Edit : And the fact that I just finished Red Dead Redemption 2 probably make me like your game more :)

Very cool concept, loved the art style, took me a little to figure out what i was supposed to do, but I pulled through. I don't know what I did wrong though, the train stopped working even though I had full coal and the passengers were all fed and had their tickets checked.

The music is really good! I enjoyed the game, nice work!

art style and the sounds are great good work

Nice and relaxing game, but I'm a bit lost on the coal mechanics

Nice game. The idea is great, and the music is nice and soothing. The movement speed felt a little slow (Just my opinion), and I do not know why I died. Great jam entry!

I think my train ran out of coal even though I tried shoveling more, weird. Good game concept anyway, I liked the graphics and the music but I wish the walk speed would be a bit higher.

Hahah this was a really cool nostalgic feeling game that creates a lovely mood. The game concept is good, the graphics are great, the sound effects are funny.. I just wish the walk speed was quicker, it's the only thing that ut me off the game as I started to get bored of slowly walking back and forward. Increasing this slightly would make the game much more enjoyable. :D x

For some reason the feeling of the game reminded me of North & South for the Amiga, even though the games are nothing alike. I actually quite enjoyed this game, it was quite relaxing until I realised we were slowing down. It looks like once it hits zero coal the train slows to a stop regardless of whether you add more coal. The feedback of the train visibly slowing down was a more natural indicator of the "health of the train" than perhaps an onscreen gauge (e.g. a health bar) would have been, so that was an inspired design choice.
