How does your game fit the theme?
Inspired by the theme of a "countdown," I thought about how we could never get out of bed during our school days, with our parents waking us up while frantically shouting, "We're running out of time! We're running out of time!" So, I decided to create a protagonist modeled after an 8th-grade student.

This was nice, I enjoyed it and had fun. Nice work!

Really enjoyed the art and all the flavor text interacting with stuff! 

Developer

You actually noticed the descriptions on the interactive items! That's awesome! They're actually part of the background lore. I know my game has a lot more text than usual, so thank you so much for your patience while playing!

the pixel art was definitely of a high quality, the background music was simple and charming.

the game was itself was simple and short, though it was nice to see all the different mechanics implemented in the game.

Developer

I'm so glad you found the game easy—that's exactly what I was aiming for, so that most people can beat it! Thanks so much for playing and for your feedback!

I think the game would be more fun with a clear goal but the pixel art and background music is awesome!

My original idea was for players to clear the game through story-driven puzzles. However, I agree that the puzzle mechanics weren't very obvious. Next time, I'll try to add better guidance. Thanks for playing!

Thanks for playing :)))

It was a little hard to find my way around the rooms, but I really enjoyed the pixel art, ambience, and sound. 

Developer

Thanks for playing! I agree that the visual style of the doors needs to be more consistent. There might also be some collision issues where certain layers can't be passed through. But I'm so glad you liked the atmosphere I tried to create!

Moving between rooms isn't particularly convenient. However, the music and art are of high quality.
Developer

Totally agree! The room transitions aren't my favorite either. I'm still a beginner in that area, so it's a bit beyond my current skill level to fix. Really appreciate you pointing it out!

I was a bit lost but the pixel art was really gorgeous!
