The movement and controls are REALLY good, congrats on that! I think that could easily turn into a really cozy/puzzly game. I think the music could be a little less electronic and more cozy vibe (since you kinda don't have a stressful timer or something to make the need on that -- but that might be me only haha)
GJ!

That was fun, you made the movement really smooth and fun to use.

Works out great as a puzzle game with a little dexterity challenge involved, nice work.

This was a fun time! The core gameplay mechanic was fun and the overall length of the game was short and sweet! The graphics were nice overall, though I feel like the size of the pixels on the shrew and the size of the pixels on the background tiles should match.

Nice work!

Thank you for your kind words. I actually never noticed those mixels so thanks for pointing that out!

So cute! Very fun and nice concept. Love that you can complete levels or go for 100% to take the extra challenge. The wet levels are a nice touch making everything just a bit harder to calculate.

Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed the challanges :D

Fun game! I enjoyed the concept and the levels were nicely designed. I just wish it was longer, but overall very cute :)

The hedgehog is very cute. Enjoyed the core loop, a good concept that has room for expansion. The music was good but got repetitive after a few levels.

Really cute game! I thoroughly enjoyed the music and sound design. I also appreciate how concepts were gradually introduced over time. Great job!

Developer

Nice concept and well delivered. The game's functionality is very good and playing it is enjoyable. The sfx and music could get some balancing in my opinion although they sound really cool. I didnt reach late in the game, but I was thinking it 'd be nice to have more things to eat as you go through the level. Also loved the artstyle. Good job!
