How does the game fit the theme?
It's weird like really weird. An axolotl stuck in a cubed shaped room where all the sides are food pics from the public domain. As you explore, you start to question reality and your life choices. Is there even a goal to this game? What even is a game?
As you exit out, you'll feel hungry and think to yourself: wow that was strange

Interesting art choice. The axolotls are very well done. The sprites chosen to fill their house were like “am I high?”.

It was really cute tho.

Feeding axelotls chicken on top croissants, definitely a thing you don't see everyday. I liked the little detail where when you pet their gills they move.

Fed Axolotls some fried chicken and pet them, can't ask for more from a game honestly. 10/10

For those wondering: In real life, Axolotls actually eat insects and worms, not chicken drumsticks 🙂

Good game , looks like my "Axolittles" are always hungry . Congratz.
