Lovely! The only way I can think to improve the experience is perhaps to have a custom in game cursor so it is easier to tell when you are hovering over something clickable

One More ScoreThis was lovely! The art is beautiful and I also love the atmosphere done with the audio. Extra points from us because our game also started with a hand-drawn beach lol. Very cute game!

StarStruckThis was relaxing at first but it took me ages to work out where I could and couldn't click. Loved the kinda secret areas - was rewarding to finally find all 3 shells haha. The art is really nice!

By The NumbersThis is a nice and relaxing experience. I had some trouble figuring out where to click at first, but got it after a minute. Good work!!

Count Down UnderBeautiful art! Very cozy game. When I first loaded up the game I was confused, until I've read the description. I think it would be better if it was clearer for some parts what was clickable. For example the holes and the grass were very obvious they could be clicked while, I didn't know I can enter the sea without seeing screenshots.
Overall good game!

Until NothingGlad to hear you liked the vibes. Yeah... the cursor should change when you hover over something interactive, but it can be hard to tell what's a scene change element and what is something of interest on the current scene. I was going to add custom cursors to distinguish them, but it just didn't make the cut. I also wanted to add more indicator elements, but it's the same story. Thanks for playing though. Cheers!
This is what i would prefer, after this huge jam, Thanks for kepping me sane.

Duat's CrawlCute little game that sets up a nice lovely atmosphere. I think you're supposed to be slowly clicking around and taking in the vibes, but I just ran through it lmao. Definitely more a me problem than the game's, though!
