A charming and lovable game. I particularly like its relaxed gameplay; the intermediate images bring the game to life, making it feel more personal.
I can easily picture the two good friends positioning themselves around the image—even though it’s actually me moving them!
Perhaps some music or sound effects related to the scene—like the patter of rain—could be added in the background.
As for the use of AI... it’s just a tool. The value of a creation isn’t diminished by the use of AI; what matters is the final result—the work itself. That’s my take on it.
Keep it up!
