I'm a big fan of lizards and owls, so I clicked! :3
What a cute and charming game!
The art style is wonderful, and the music I enjoyed a lot!
The gameplay is simple and nice, it requires a bit of memory skills to remember what the lizard want, and the owl controls lovely (however it seems I can get it offscreen and totally losing by moving to the right for a few seconds :c)
Overall, an amazing game, I put in on my favorite ludum dare 46 games list!

@sheinxy We're so glad you enjoyed it! :blue_heart: Thank you for pointing out the flying off-screen issue, it managed to totally slip our minds, haha. If we go back to it we'll definitely sort that out!
I liked this game quite a bit. The concept is a nice interpretation of the theme, the gameplay is simple but fun, and the overall atmosphere is positive. The guitar track is fitting and enhances the experience. Well done!

@joel-steudler Thanks so much! :smile:
Cute game, i really like art and music. Gameplay is simple and enjoyable, nice work. Maybe it make sense to make feeding not automatic, cause sometimes you feed the lizard and then you pick up new wrong food and feed lizard again, but with this wrong food. Or not spawn food in the lizards' area. In situations in which there is no time to wait until the wrong food pass the lizard, player can't do anything to avoid mistake
P.s. Please, give to the player the option to exit the game at any time, at least close the game with ESC button :sweat_smile:

I actually enjoyed this game after getting used to the controls! The music and the floating movement of the owl are very relaxing. The tree and background look great by the way.
A few small nitpicks:
1) 566MB for a game? Crazy! I guess this is UE's fault but still. Wow!
2) I would have loved some progress indicator. I finally made it to the end, but I didn't know beforehand if there was an end...
3) In the beginning I did not know, that the owl picks up things automatically. But that was just a minor annoyance.
Anyway, I still enjoyed it. All-in-all nice, relaxing and everything worked out of the box. *Thumbs-Up*

This game is awesome, the art is super cute, and the audio fits perfectly. I found that I didn't use the hover button that much, and thought a dive mechanic might be cool as well. I love the game, though, and I'm definitely gonna play again :)
