The spinning pear part took me out 😂 what a whimsical little game! Genuinely feels like you're really just getting started and getting lost as you begin life

Bleat button is peak
Short, but cute. Got some camera jittering in the cave, but otherwise nice simple and cozy

After the EndA good short tight experience. Well animated sprites and env - especially with pixel art. We just talked in Discord about music, but thanks for the game. Enjoyed it.

FunemployedThis game is pretty cute! There were a few times where the camera jumped somewhere quickly but other than that the game was pretty polished! The art style and music are good and it's fun to just run around! The Asgore part had me laughing!

You will not win this gameQuite a charming game about a deer! ✨
Press Z to Bleat is probably the best feature in the whole game jam imo, actually maybe even the history of gaming, really made this game stand out for me haha, jokes aside the art is charming and cute, really pulled off that retro vibe with this one, the road gag really messed me up haha, I was in a emotional rollercoaster there, other than that, nothing much I can say, from what I can tell this game is just meant to be a endearing short story about a deer.
As fellow newbies, congratulation on making your first game!

its starts rainingWow, that was a great experience and I especially loved the entire ambiance of the game. The art was phenomenal, the music was perfect, and the bleating noise was the cherry on top! The baby deer is very cute and it was a relaxing experience to explore around and try to find its mom. My favorite area was definitely the rainy area outside of the cave because it adds to the overall soothing nature of the game. Well done on your first game jam!

Just Press StartThis game was so sweet and the artstyle was so wonderful and nostalgic. It felt so much l like I was playing old RPG-maker games from the 2000s like To the Moon (which is one of my favorite games of all time!) I had so much fun exploring (although I got lost at times) and the whole thing was so calming. great job, esp for your first jam!
