SUPER CUTE GAME!!! It was such a charming experience, I am sad it had to end, but the ending was the best one I could have hoped for!

I liked the parallax background effect of the dark trees which appered more and more the deeper I got into the forrest!

The game felt really cozy and chill, really like that there was also foreground. I still find it funny how Roberto ended up sleeping under the leaves.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed and got to play it till the end :)

The game really needs more hints, but it's incredibly cozy and atmospheric! The art and music go together perfectly!!! 100 lost glasses out of 100 hahaha.

This game is cute, I genuinely got sad when Roberto's newspaper blew away! The sound track is very cozy too. My only critique is, I wish more love went into the forest/background. All in all, great submission though! Well done.

Developer

really cute game and you have a pretty artstyle

Developer(+1)

omg thanks <3

Aww, this is such a sweet little wholesome game. The art is super cute and so are the animals! It takes a little while to understand all the controls (especially using E to advance a dialogue), but other than that it's really great. Very well done!

Developer

Yeah we def should include some instructions on the controls in-game. Thanks for pointing it out and trying our game. :)

A cute little journey; a much needed scape from all the stressful things in life! I had the chance to just think about the most adorable protagonist! Beautiful art, impecable choice in music, and clean execution overall.

Developer

We all love Roberto the raccoon 🦝
