THANK you for the tutorial, I love well documented explanations lol

Fun little game here. The controls were strange but unique and hilarious. I don't really see any point in right-clicking when you can just scroll directly to what you should do instead. Also the graphics were kind of hard to read, I couldn't tell what some things were. Pretty good though!

I love modern history. Very atmospheric. The tutorial was like reading a big manual though. I would prefer it if the graphics (great as they were) could be more expressive, and the tutorial more bite sized. I don’t want to have to study a manual before playing.

I loved the gameplay, very novel. Consistent controls. I haven’t played Baba is You, but I imagine it would be like this.

Visuals are quite interesting, the cover art is funny and cool.

But the gameplay feels overcomplicated. Thinking about literally every action feels frustrating, because this game is like a puzzle: you already figured out how to do the thing, but now you need to execute it, but the execution is slow, so it feels like a chore. Maybe you could try lessen the amount of actions on the "thoughts"?

Also some kind of quick introduction would be awesome, because it's not convenient to look for the instructions on the itch page where it's a plain text.

Thanks for the feedback! FYI there’s a how to page accessible through the in-game main page that has embedded gameplay clips and explanations for all the mechanics.

Hello fellow Egg!! 🥚🥚🥚Your game is such a hoot. We love it!
Tile set was a bit confusing, but we loved the intro screen, idea, film grain, and chaotic nature. At first it was really hard because we weren't using the scroll function, but that helped. Also your bird is so cute :)

I love your absolutely unhinged cover image.  Fun game, weird game, hard to play but not in a super frustrating way. Good job! Creative interpretation of the theme.

So silly, I suck at it but I had fun and a good laugh, love the concept and the description

honestly such a fun and original idea, I was very confused on my first playthrough but after reading through the how to play I think it's a fun original idea, good job !
