Very unique and enjoyable! Sometimes a little rage inducing but good nonetheless!

This game was really enjoyable and super charming! I definitely found some of the mini-games were quite unforgiving / slightly unresponsive and combining that with the lack of restart was rough,, but great work despite that!!

Really engaging game but I am completely terrible at flappy bird and could not for the life of me consistently get past that bit. XD

The game is pretty cozy and funny, it's good if you play it perfectly. And that's kind of an issue, if you lose, there is no auto restart, you have to rewatch the whole already pretty elongated starting cutscene again, the game's objectives are pretty intuitive and fun but the game also softlocks whenever it's supposed to loop.

Thanks for playing and your kind words! Sadly we ran out of time towards the end, and even after me focusing on bug fixing i didnt manage to get everything. But im super glad you liked the vibe and minigames!!

That's entirely understandable, I had a very similar problem, but yeah I really liked the cozy vibe, I didn't see many of those in the jam.
