A sweet little game. Well done.

The goose was absolut nice :) But for me the mouse sens was way too high :)

@dninosores Thanks! I tried to create the perfect grandma with a mix of those 2 images: [one](https://www.pinterest.ch/pin/383017143321027951/) and [two](https://www.anime-planet.com/images/characters/grandma-ume-50720.jpg?t=1371240129)

@shellofagirl Thank you, glad you enjoyed it :) Technically it's an [Indian Runner Duck](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Runner_duck). The have a looong neck, and they like snails!

@jk5000 Thanks! We should team up and create the ultimate duck game! :D

@robbzenone Thank you! And I think your mouse is broken. (j/k you're right, should be adjustable :)

Awesome! Love the simplicity- and the slug murder- heheh. But wait? IS SHE SLEEPING?! Or did I take too long?! OMG- I did take too long, but I gave her the pills! Great little game. Thanks!

zubspace 2022-04-05 22:05

@pinballjunior Happy to hear that :) Thanks for playing!

@joemid Nice screenshot! And yeah, you're asking the right questions! hehe

The mouse was also too sensitive for me, but sweet game! I hope she's only having a rest :)

Really enjoyed this sweet short game! The controls felt a bit weird at times, specially the aiming, but otherwise had fun!

It was a cute game. Nice voice addition. Couldn't eat the grubs when on top of them, and had to climb down. I don't think the goose was intended to go on top anyways. Nice job!! By the way, the grandma looked dead with the flower on her :cry: Pj6rxo3 - Imgur.png

After fullfilling my destiny and doing what I could for grandma, I decided to live behind the small bush near the path that leads to the river. For there I will stay, forever guarding the realm of grandma, as a protector of the flowers, destroyer of snails, I will preserve her and wait until she wakes back up to reign in her kingddom once again.

I enjoyed being a helpful goose for once.

Thank you! Cool too see Godot being used!

@jeffrey-hwang Ha! Didn't even know that you could step on top of them :) Anyway, glad you finished it and thanks for playing!

@aerloth LOL, don't worry, I'll got you covered with Part 2 called "Mrs. Applebee returns" where she will expand hear garden realm into the galaxy and the final of the trilogy, "Mrs. Applebee Ressurections", will uncover the secret behind the goose and it's true intentions. Stay tuned!

Very sweet game with great atmosphere. Must say it took me a bit to realize that the white circle is the target for whatever you want to interact with. And as others have mentioned, the mouse is waaaay to sensitive.

zubspace 2022-04-06 21:19

@snesgaard Thanks for playing and your review! I wish I could say that this is just the way it feels if you're a running duck with a large neck trying to target something small like a snail, but that's just stupid of me :) I simply forgot about mouse sensitivity. Should definitely be a setting for a 3D game!

denhette 2022-04-06 21:59

Oh God, I think I gave her the wrong medicine! I feel so bad!

Nice little game, the voice acting was a nice bonus :) Games featuring ducks always have my attention. The timelapse was really interesting to see too.

I really like the idea of a non-violent game about a goose but I got dizzy from the camera spinning so couldn't really play :( Controls generally felt weird... Atmosphere, style and idea felt nice though

kate-black 2022-04-07 12:18

top unexpected endings

glayson 2022-04-07 13:11

Poor ducky!!! I regret eating all those slimes!

If i can offer a suggestion, some subtitles would help, i was too far from the lady when she asked me to get rid of the slimes and couldn't understand what she said.

Another cool point it that the laid sounds like a darksouls character!

Nice job!

nenechico 2022-04-12 22:00

Cute! the camera movement is a quite too fast for me.

satacat 2022-04-12 23:12

Cure game with a really unexpected plot twist... But you did it great, well done.

machwerx 2022-04-14 06:37

Oh, what an ending! Such a simple game idea, but very well executed. I'm impressed with how much you managed to put into the game in just 48 hours!

sulo 2022-04-14 12:12

The mouse was quite sensitive but managed to finish with a trackpad :) Cute little entry!

jackaljk 2022-04-18 18:35

So cute and such a sad ending! Great modeling and visual style, nice job!

I LOVE THAT DUCK WADDLE and TAIL WAG!

The controls were too sensitive, but I tried to go with it. Maybe this is how ducks feel when the move.

The waking up sequence at the beginning sounded and felt like a Zelda cinematic.

The bloom lighting was intense! It was gorgeous outside the home.

The ending was a sad surprise. I wasn't sure if there was more to do since the text appeared saying it was over but the game didn't exactly end.
