Awesome graphics, sound deserves a huge shoutout too. Game was a littly iffy with the camera making it hard to see where you're going and also didn't fit the theme. That said I'm really impressed and I'll leave a good rating.

Buy a coffee for your artist, seriously. Artist desereved it. That small moth boi is EXTREMELY qute, such as his moving animation. Overall, idea is really great, some polishing, more animations (I was kinda sad when understood there's no form switching animation), ant I'll surely buy your game on Steam or somewhere else.

Game's beautiful and the music is great! Great use of outlines - is it a shader or is it something like duplicating the mesh and flipping the normals?

The one change I'd make going forwards would be making it so you can toggle between forms - occasionally I was just mooching about waiting for it to swap.

EDIT: It just occurs to me that that's the unstable. I am not a smart man.

Game was very fun, however it would've been interesting if the smaller form of the moth 'boi' had some utility, rather than just a cooldown between the big moth 'boi'. Fantastic moth models and animation.

Graphics + Audio + Style + Moth dream +

I would make camera more responsive to moth form, if it was more distance from moth while it is in big form, it would be better And some trees have not collision and nothing shows what tree I can jump and what tree I cant jump

Overall, great job)

Nice game! I like the aesthetics here. The animations of the little moth, music, all that. What bugged me was the camera movement and placement and the lack of skills as little moth. I'd expect to be able to glide at least in that form.

Do I hear Epona's theme from Zelda in your music?

Thank you for the kind comments! All the people that worked on this project were professional game artists and we didn't have programmers. So we took the opportunity to gather more skills and that's why the gameplay seems lacking.

The song was made in a few hours on an ipad in garage band. I don't think the artist could tell you what the inspirations were :D

Very nice graphics ! As you mention it miss a bit of gameplay but it's a nice little experience with a very nice mood, congrats !

You have a very cute grumpy Moth Boi, and I very like him 😊 Also, you have a very cool art style, both for the cover and for the game. It's a sad that you don't have a programmer (but you're cool guys if you could do it without him), but try to find at least one of them for the next project. And I'm sure then you will have a very awesome game. 😃

firstly. i love the graphics and sound thats obviously the best part of this game but the map design and the trees are all over the place the design is chaotic and whats with the form changing? i love where you could go with this game but you need to work on the "sense" part of it
