I really like the jokes and the animals names (and the twerking dance!), but I had a hard time figuring out what I had to do. Not sure if this is intentional, but I would like to have instructions offered at some point.
In the end, I managed to rebuild the stables, yay me! (Not without making pigs and chicken angry in the process...).
yes, did as the others have oinked out (pun) it's hard to get what is expected from the player ... a tutorial would be needed! But i enjoyed the storytelling a lot! Really well written i think!
I don´t really know what I just played, but I liked it anyways.
I love the artwork. It's also great to have an easy, non-demanding jam game to play amongst the platformers and shooters etc. I enjoyed hearing about the lives of the animals, and was pleased to eventually build the barn. Some sound effects would have gone a long way to improve the experience of playing. For example, UI sounds when selecting and then confirming a choice would make the game feel more responsive and inherently pleasant to interact with. Different music for the win screen would also feel much more rewarding than a cut to silence. Narrative was a strength of this game, so it is a shame there is no rating category for this. At first I thought here was no objective to the game, and that it was just an interactive narrative experience, where the order the text is read is partly randomised and partly down to player choices. It might be sensible to somehow communicate to the player what they are supposed to be doing/aiming to achieve, as this was not very clear. Thanks for sharing!
Like the others said you don't really understand what you should do. But still I really like the drawings (graphics) and the store behind it. You could add some in game pictures and a more detailed description about the game here on the page. This would make it more attractive
Nice story adventure! I love it~~ The animals finally has a good friendship, different with the origin animal farm. lovely story ending. Good job!
I love the drawings although overall it was a bit confusing.
Would definitely benefit from some description of an overall goal you would have to do. Like others have said, i stopped after playing for a short while because i wasnt hooked at all. It just felt like a lot of random events following each other, and my impact on the story didnt seem immidiatly obvious.
I really love your art! It was so funny to see Cluck Norris or Albert Eggstein and other names. Cool! The name of your game reminds me one book Animal Farm by George Orwell
The illustrations are very well done. However I struggled to understand how my actions were impacting the game. I couldn't tell if the order I clicked the cards really mattered.I like games where I have to figure out what to do, but it was unclear to me if there was anything to figure out here, or if I should just sit back and enjoy the experience. Overall nice job, probably a few sentences in the itch description would have cleared up all my issues.
Really like the art style. Well done :)
The artwork is great. I have really enjoyed the little name puns and the references. My only little feedback is there could be a progressbar or something somewhere that allows me to see my overall progress and how much more action I have to make to win. But great job!
Great art style ... but I had no idea what I was doing. I just clicked and read some part of stories, while my "lumber" meter went up and down. So good graphics but definitively needs explanations or a tutorial. Good work overall!
not my type of game so cant say much. adhd
It took me a little bit to get the pace of the game, but overall I gathered that my choices allowed other choices to arrive and be made. The story writing was very entertaining, and the art was very charming. I agree with others that a progress bar would be a nice addition, just so I know what I'm working toward.
Overall, great entry!
