Beneath the Covers by Ismei

made by Ismei for LD29 (COMPO)

This is not what I set out to make, but I am quite pleased with the look of it. And this was my first attempt at making music for a game, so that was a new challenge.

Description - You are tired after work and head beneath your duvet to get ready for bed.

This was made in GameMaker. I used Bosca Ceoil for the music and paint.net for the art.

The Game is boring but it's okay.

Short and sweet. The music is not bad! Fits the game pretty nicely.

Nice idea... might not exactly qualify as a game, but as a visual novel it has some nice ideas maybe worth exploring - visual novels are usually so dark and depressing, some "happy" ones might be good to see once in a while!

Thanks for the comments. I know it's not really a game, it was initially going to be an action type game involving fighting off sleep monsters (teddy bears) with pillows amongst other things, but the gameplay ended up getting slashed due to time constraints.

Nice music and idea. The shortest entries are usually the best.

Very nice! It was somewhat confusing when the game quit out of nowhere though.

love the idea of going under each cover to discover something new. Although there was not much gameplay.

Very cute and atmospheric, made me feel warm inside. Great idea and theme interpretation too. Too short and gameplay lacking, but has great potential.

I like the interpretation of the theme. A hidden object mechanic - where you have to identify your items under the covers - could make it a more satisfying experience.

hmm the music is ok imo, however I could not find the game itself. Its more like a story?

If it was a child who made this, then great job! Keep making games, those were some cute animals.

Otherwise... Well. Try harder next time!
