dzo 2026-04-21 15:48

simple and awesome, really liked the ms paint art!

adorable little game thank you and i liked your art! little game has a lot of heart

lastuck 2026-04-21 15:56

nice little game, I liked the art! I'm not sure if I skipped some part or not, because I got the tools and could reach the guy pretty fast, even thought the talkie didn't tell me to

It was really enjoyable just being in the game — even after finishing the story, simply wandering around the world felt great.

Had a lot more depth to it than I was expecting. I love that you could always just chat to the guy. I couldn't find the chicken though, was that a red herring?

@meemog I checked on the chicken. It escaped into another dimension because its directional vector was not being normalized. This has now been fixed. Chicken contained.

meemog 2026-04-21 18:27

I'm glad you found the chicken. I hate it when my directional vectors aren't normalized

So cute! I felt happy the whole time. Especially when the chicken made its way right back to grandma. Really like the ambience and style of course. Even just some little typing sounds when the people are talking would add so much. That was a relaxing experience!

What a cute game! I wish I could use space for everything but overall it's fun to explore around. I like getting to have a walkie talkie too! I'm glad the chicken came home <3 Great work overall!

Cute game. Reminded me of those old RPG Flash games.

Short, sweet, simple, relaxing. Loved it!

I do still feel like there was in fact maybe one more thing after the ending that I couldn’t figure out how to trigger, but I had nice break time with this one!

Adorable little adventure! With my goldfish memory I wish I would have had a task lisk ala untitled goose game.

2026-04-24 16:30

art was great. I like this style of game. Reminds me of Peasant's Quest from homestar runner. Those were the days....

Would have preferred the character movement to be faster

A very cute and relaxing game! I especially liked the pet log story

2026-04-24 20:50

The dialogue was cute and the art was really charming. I liked the overall vibe you were going for.

The gameplay is mostly walking around and talking to people, with a few similar fetch-style objectives. For me, that didn’t hold my attention for very long.

I think adding more variety or something to break up that loop would help a lot, because the presentation is already doing a lot right.

Very cute little game. Nice job!

mastoast 2026-04-26 09:57

nice entry ! I love the work on ambiance and sound design. I also liked the small interactions with trees and plants, it really bring some life in the game

rend 2026-04-26 18:22

Cute little game, I really like the sound design of the game, it gives a very cozy mood. It's a bit short on content but I think it's a great foundation for something bigger.

I expected talkie to be used more than a tips giver, but it's still a really cute and fun little adventure.
