With the Ecto Cooler and "Pulchritudinous"... Well-played. I didn't think about adding homestuck references!

Never knew that's where blockbuster ended up! This was a funny game, Manage to get things done! Good joj!
Was excited to see a game about Tucker that character always kills me and the way you wrote him was hilarious. The art is so good, and it's a lot of fun to explore the map! Music fit the vibe perfectly. Fun game all around!
Enjoyed playing this game, even if Tucker is annoying little twerp at times :-) Sadly the game locked up on me and ended my run (the Feed TV button stayed on the screen when I left the room, I think because my mouse was still on it? not sure, then when I went back I couldn't feed it and then I couldn't move). Still, very on-theme and very cute!
Great game all around, the pixel art is amazing, the gameplay is solid and the humor is on point. Got all three endings.
The only question is where it fits into the Tucker timeline, is it before or after he calls the Freak hotline?
Thank you for your feedback and "Tucker Timeline" inquiry. The Tucker Loremasters/Council have informed me that this likely takes place before the "Freak Hotline" incident, which I totally forgot Tucker was a part of... argh, what a missed opportunity. I should've done more research!! Thanks for playing!!!
The itch game page design is incredible by the way. The main menu music is soothing to listen to.
The gameplay has a solid foundation to start off because of the narrative dialogue that takes place and the earthquake effect. Objects with a question mark when nearby are interactable and I can already potentially see that this game allows interaction outside of the main story, great job implementing the side dialogues/narrative.
I ran into a bug where the Feed TV button is still active even after I finished interacting with the TV and giving it some retro items.
I managed to unlock the good ending. Well done with this game.
Glorp, but also i wanted a go back to sleep ending (i also reloaded to see if i could make the tv chase me around after making it angy but i get why that wasn't in the cards)
Awesome game dood! Really enjoyed the writing and artwork. The gameplay loop was simple but it was a lot of fun wandering around the house and reading flavor text, and I really appreciate sending the player right back with all of their items after getting an ending so that they can easily see another ending afterwards without losing any progress. Amazing work!
I like the atmosphere in this game. The old TV looks great and the whole idea of giving it items has a cool and mysterious vibe. Finding the duck was also a cute surprise :3
There were a few moments where I wasn’t completely sure what the next step was, so maybe a small hint or a little visual cue could make the flow smoother for players.
Overall I enjoyed exploring this strange retro TV world. Nice concept and a nice mood.
Neat little story with a good feel to it! I appreciate how the game places you back just before the ending after you pick one so you can see them all easily
Lots of style, with a nice retro vibe not only to the visuals but the gameplay!
the art is soooo good! very undertale- inspired, at this point, vinny's played more deltarune -esque fan games before having played them. also 🦢📼
The sprite work is great, very retro! Got 3 different endings, fun stuff in here!
