Really cute froggy. Nice cozy world and sound.

Thanks. Glad you liked it!

Ah, sorry about the volume. Thanks for playing!

Love the music and the look of it. It's really cozy. Nailed the fall cozy vibes. I liked seeing the leaves respawn. It looked natural. Enjoyed walking around and picking stuff up. The witch and their animations were done really well.

I was stuck a few times and had to restart. Once on the side of the stairs entering the home, the other time on the lab.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.

The levels were nice cozy strolls through an autumn orchard. I was stuck on level 7 for far longer than I want to say though. I was so lost.

I found it hard to situate myself in the maze. One thing that really helped me was that there were apples everywhere I hadn't been. They're like inverse-breadcrumbs. They were a nice feature that I could often rely on. Seeing the trees helped too, since they were rare and generally around the goal.

The menu screens were really well done. I like the basket of apples.

haha, sure did :)

I love the city setting. Lots of interesting stuff to watch was we race, around buildings, beneath bridges, all good stuff I liked how if I missed a gate, I could press W/S to easily loop back.

Too bad it didn't work well for you. I'm aware of a few rough patches (mainly vines and the birches imo) Thanks for giving it a try.

Thanks for playing!

I see! Thanks for the tip. Worked like a charm. I was wondering what those numbers and trees were all about :)

It might be broken. I went back with all three pumpkin sizes. Tried left clicking on the table with my character against it, the knives, the basket, the cutting board across the room. Right clicked on each too, selected item, couldn't select any pumpkins. Ah well.

All of the meta is funny. "in the full game..." :) Looks like the start to a nice jrpg. I liked the zones. Nice diverse and pretty areas with stuff to explore.  I grew some pumpkins, but I couldn't find the workshop to carve them.

Impressive how much was done and without an engine, no less. I managed to find a few new staff  in different buildings. Started with blue, found purple and green. I played alone. Might be worthwhile to try to organize a multiplayer game in Discord if you do it again.

It's really cute. The drawings and animations are great. Nice music selection to go with it. Hits those cozy fall feelings.

I couldn't fulfill most requests however. When I'd click done after selecting the size and carve (colour was always orange), maybe 1/10 of the requests and requests completed would update. Tried in Firefox and Chrome just in case.

This is really nice! I love how the options add to the room with lighting, music, sound effects, animations. Big cozy fall vibes. It looks really good too.

Glad you liked it!

Those are some great suggestions. If I continue working on this, they're on my list. Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks!

Cute! This is a very good first game. The controls are smooth. It's a pleasure to move the hedgehog around. There's a nice variety of things to collect and shapes to run around. Everything is intuitive. I liked seeing the shadows of the clouds move overhead. Nice touch.

If I were to recommend one thing, it would be to add some feedback when items are collected.

That's a big number. I think I scored well :)


Yay! Thanks for playing.

Love to read that! Thank you.

Really like the squirrel's animations. Nice art in general. I fell running away from that bird so many times! I like how the bird pushes the squirrel. It gives the player a chance to recover if they get hit. The hidden den was a nice touch. It surprised me when I fell in. Vivaldi's Autumn is nice choice for a cozy fall song :) 

I noticed that it's the reverse of yours too, but I failed to mention it. I liked to see how you implemented painting.

Thanks for playing and for the nice words. So glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks!

Thanks for giving it that minute, since it definitely needs a better tutorial. Glad you had fun!

Very nice looking game. Nice chill music. I had fun raking the leaves. It really gets tough as the game progresses though. I couldn't finish it. "The Dark Souls of Leaf games" is accurate.

The dragon controls were excellent. The movement was really smooth. Felt great to evade the ice bullets. The upgrades were all worthwhile. Art/music are really good too. Nice game. Had fun! Didn't find it very cozy, however. I was on the edge of my seat.

Nice looking game. The cozy harp music reminded me of some Elder Scrolls songs. Was fun to expand my empire. Those numbers get really big. Stopped when my click finger couldn't take it any longer. Well done.

Nice looking models with a nice palette. Feels so cozy with that music. Like the randomness of the pumpkins. I pick up the pumpkin before deciding where it will fit in.

Ah. that's a great tip about the colours. Aside from improving the colours, maybe a different texture for summer vs fall leaves would improve that?

Thanks for playing! I'm so glad you liked it.

I liked painting the trees. It worked really well. Cute game. Nice and cozy. I liked putting the tape in the stereo. The tweets are a nice reward.

The paint buckets were unlocked one at a time, but when I approached them, they're highlighted as though I could pick them up. I thought they were broken at first.

Aww, thanks!

Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for playing!

Surprisingly cozy considering the setting. It's like the cozy feels drown out the violence. Well done.

This is so fun! Love the art/animations. I lost at first right before completing - I didn't realize that the day/night cycle was a timer for the game. Still had a blast the second time around. That's a creepy pumpkin. The controls are so smooth. They felt great! I went quickly and could rely on those reliable squirrels to do exactly what I needed. I liked watching the squirrels carry the larger items (that pie!). Was just fun to see those team-working rodents go. This is excellent.

That's so nice to read! Glad you liked it!

There are a few steps to the tracking. It was a little trickier than I expected it to be, but if I were to clean it up, it's probably not so bad now that I know how. There are two main parts: The in-progress foliage swipe and setting the foliage cursors (the starting fall colour vs the in-progress summer colour).

To set cursors:

  • When the player clicks on fall-coloured foliage, I set that as the start cursor
    • I have a "Foliage" script on the object. When I get a raycast hit, I look for this script. It has a status variable to tell me if the foliage is fall, summer, in-progress or  returning to summer colour.
  • With the mouse click still down, I then RaycastAll to look for overlaps (without any blocking colliders)
    • If I find the start cursor and summer-coloured foliage, the summer foliage is marked as the in-progress cursor
  • When the in-progress foliage is complete. I mark it as fall-coloured, set it as the start cursor and repeat.

The  in-progress foliage swipe:

  • I find the position where the player entered the foliage and the current mouse position (All using raycasts and colliders.) and the direction they're moving (from the mouse coords, translated to world space).
  • I then determine the opposite side of the tree (using the bounds of all colliders on the tree)
    • The swiping can be a little wonky. I think it's because I didn't use accurate colliders and the "opposite" side only moves across faces of a cube. It's not the true opposite side.
  • I enter that information into a custom shader that draws the progress. I do the same for the gameplay.
    • When it's complete, I mark it as Fall-coloured

Super cute game. Loved all the puns. Really rewarding to interact with the room - lots of great feedback.

Nice looking game with cute characters. Enjoyed the dialogue. After I got it wrong the first round, I was returned to the start, which wasn't ideal. Would have been nice to chose who to re-interview.

Nice chill leaf blowing simulation. Leaves fall and flow in the wind nicely. Good chill music. Too bad the leaves disappear though. I wanted to play with them and try to make piles, maybe crunch them.

What's with the bloody bench? Is this a dimension of Hell?
