At first, I thought "A" and "D" were broken, but then I saw they were working  just moving very slowly. I like the idea.

controls are hard

Wow! Really unusual gameplay, I like it!) Pleasing visual and relaxing audio! The game perfectly fits two themes!) I would like more neat instruction, how to play), amazing game!

Overall, a very interesting game. 

I may not have gone far enough, but I lacked the complexity and the need to take the donkey back, except for eating apples. I think it would be interesting if some railways were very close, so that it would be necessary to transfer the elephant back and forth. I would like to see other obstacles.

Also there is no cap on how long the line can stretch so I just walked with my hay-thing al the way to this little funny easter egg, then i walked off the map.

I like how you presented the game! Even if it's simple, it does communicate, especially appreciate the visual and auditory warning for when a train is approaching!

I did have a decent amount of trouble with getting apples, pulling the donkey only seemed to work if I was touching the donkey directly, and both characters were a little slow, so there was a decent chance that a train would spawn with no way to get both of them off the tracks.

Regardless, still neat! And, I don't know if it's intentional, but I like the touch that the soundtrack fades the farther you are from the donkey - really emphasizes that you need to stay together!

Great little entry for the jam, love the push and pull movement, you said the game sucks and i don't agree on that. There are only two things that I would change and it is not the beautiful watercolour graphics, it is not the perfectionised audio nor the nice movement. It is the overlap of the ground-sections and the font + it's colour. Light blue and pink doesn't melt very well in with the rest of the graphics and the font is sometimes difficult to read like the text saying "Press SPACEBAR to restart". Perhaps you can fix that in the last 8.5 minutes you have left? EDIT: Just wanted to say that the cover art is amazing too!
