I thought this was a really cute game with a fun mechanic! I played until I won and I had fun managing the buckets.
Thank you for game! Interesting idea, very easy controls and cool atmosphere in game. I would like more levels and more mechanics like large tanks that slow down because they are heavier than buckets and a timer, for example, the amount of water in the cloud and the player needs to run after it otherwise the water will end
Very cute game with great graphics and nice and easy gameplay! i had a lot of fun playing this
great idea .. the buckets are fun to throw and fill
Buckets felt great to throw1 Really tried to throw the bucket at the water tank. Graphics are cute too. It was relaxing to play.
it's a nice little game with a cool mechanic. really appretiate you didn't turn it into a water managment madness and I didn't have to worry about water disappearing from the tank. great entry!
Cute game with nice graphics Missed some SFX & background music in my experience
Adorable environment art and squirrel character! The simple gameplay is great for just relaxing, enjoying the rainfall, and taking things at your own pace. The water collecting/filling mechanic is solid and could be used for all kinds of fun puzzles and experiences, if you decide to expand this game after the jam. Beautiful work on this jam entry!
Beautiful artwork! The lighting on the house, and the brooding background are really well done. The game was fun and simple, which means I had an enjoyable time playing it. With some rain sounds, and a little bit of music, this would have felt very complete!
The graphics are beautiful and remind me a bit of night in the woods, some calm background music and rain sounds would have heavily benefitted this game though
Great game, actually got me to try and beat it. The graphics were definitely the strongest thing about the game, on par with the top 50 jam games. It's a shame you didn't have time to make a soundtrack, otherwise it would have felt more complete. I would suggest you add royalty free music next time - even if you didn't make it, you can opt out of the audio category but still vastly improve the feel of the game.
The controls were probably the weakest aspect for me - I wasn't a huge fan of the control scheme in general but the movement was far too responsive for a game that required me to move through a small hole at times. Some wall boundaries were also not very clear at first, which made me miss where I can and can't go.

Appealing visuals and fun gameplay, good job! If you would like to shred some zombies in slowmo, be sure to check out my entry, I would love to hear your feedbacks :) resim_2023-01-27_173146765.png
Cute game! Took me a second to realize that there are multiple buckets and I don't have to follow the rain like a madman :smile: One thing I would highly recommend you for next time is to add some sounds (they can really be very simple) when the player does something (e.g. picks up a bucket). This will really help making these great graphics feel more immersive.
Gameplay was simple but cool. It would be good if you could better plan were to place the buckets based on were the cloud will go. I see that you already tried that with the arrow pointing to the next location, but it doesn't really work yet (at least for me) Otherwise nice entry!
Very cute! I love the art style.
Very relaxing to play, jumping around feels good, and I like overall vibes.
Needs some rain sounds and maybe some very simple chill music to tie everything together.
