A weird thing for sure LOL. Had me engaged for a while even though the graphics were intense contrasty. Very interesting game and good submission!
A nice game.. had some fun. Maybe you could add some more content besides the bring and fetch quests. Also the colors took some effort to get used to :P.
Well that was an ending I didn't see coming. And slug was really asking the philosophical questions too 🤔
Super weird game, and the art is very unique. It's actually a very cool thing that you used pictures of your garden for it!
Interesting idea and unique art style! I like it for how completely different it is :)
Thank you for the feedback everyone.
I absolutely agree that more quest variety is needed, @unfinished.
Super different and just fascinating. Visually intense and unabashedly weird. I am here for it! I would love to see more of the garden, and meet more characters. 😄
Thank you @mavvy, that is very kind of you to say.
I am *here* for the psychedelic images. It helped make the mood of this game feel unique and surreal. Absolutely loved it.
I did run into difficulty with the game play where my encounters wouldn't end, and I'd be in a bit of a loop interacting with others. I played the web version, maybe that was the issue? Not that it stopped me from playing, though. Slug needs their crouton, after all.
Thank you for the feedback @fionnabhair, and I will try to reproduce that bug when I have time.
Nice game! I love the style and the cast of characters.
You chose a pretty bold art direction, which I can appreciate, even if it didn't exactly make things easier to see. That said, the game is more an experience and a vibe, and not much of a challenge in any other way so it didn't really hurt things.
Bright and psychedelic, and a little story to the fetch quests. Simple stuff, but I enjoyed it!
Well that was weird, and I mean that in a good way.
i like the graphics
A good project, it has prospects! You are great!
Well that was quite trippy :D It's probably the odd combination of the psychedelic graphics, the seemingly stream-of-consciousness writing and the surreal ending. The sound has some low rumbling issues (very irritating on headphones), could be fixed with a high pass filter. The exclamation marks were hard to see sometimes, perhaps they needed some animated glow/shadow to draw more attention.
Thanks for the tip @flogames. The background audio is a recording of my outdoor garden, and I was worried it would have noise issues. I tried cleaning it up but my audio editing skills are severely lacking, so any tips are greatly appreciated.
