This vibe of "RPG-maker game" is so pleasant) Art is amazing, you are a cool artist! Has some problems with controls, thanks you has guide kinda When i saw description of items, i wanted to press them, but my Timus just walked over here(

The art style is truly impressive; you're a talented artist! I had a positive experience overall. :grin:

The slow movement at first feels weird but then it's just part of the game, I really liked the art style and music. Gj!

I think you posted a picture of this game on the front page and that's why I played it, I played it and beat it. Graphics and mood are the best thing this game has going for it. The downside is it's a little tough to figure out how to play even with reading instructions, and I think there are too many options/collectibles. It's tough making games for these events, everyone wants to just rush through them but like I said I played it all the way. In my opinion just needed less collectibles and more clarity.

Very interesting! I feel like there are a lot of details worth exploring

I missed the quick tutorial because I went straight to the text description to try and find instructions and ended up with a very confused playthrough.

While it's kinda my fault for not paying closer attention to the LD page, I think you should include some sort of instructions in the game itself to help players out. Like it isn't obvious that the water(?) spray is an attack since it won't have any effect on any entity other than a couple specific items. It's also unclear that you have to press a button to pick up items since you can pick up eggs and interact with fairies by just walking up to them. My first run through the game I thought it was just glitched or unfinished since you didn't specify the controls on the page.

Once I saw the instructions it all made more sense though.

I enjoyed discovering new creature types and trying to kill different enemies to get new items. One thing I didn't like was that it seemed like everything was just placed randomly around the map. I think you could have created biomes of related creatures and plants and had the player branch out to new areas to give a sense of exploration.

The game was an enjoyable experience overall though (once I learned how to play). I think some more content and polish and this could turn into a sold time killer

Nice relaxing experience, the music sound peaceful and the graphics are pretty :smile:

love the pretty art and music. Really wanted to play it through more but gameplay was a bit tough to figure out.

Takes a while to catch on with how gameplay works, but great idea!

I really like the pixel art and the relaxing music. Took me a while to figure out what to do, but it was fun to explore the world. :)

Nice art work could use some better in game explanation took a little while to actually get the grasp of what I was going but other then that good work

Nice game. Looks great. Monsters and timukin have good variety. Gameplay is pretty chilled, music matches well.
