Really enjoyed playing this, but still wondering if there is some way to \"win\"?\nAlso, really wish the protagonist could walk faster, but the game made up for it by having awesome music!

The graphics are probably the best I've seen out of this jam so far. The only complaints I have are that the controls feel really wonky, and the game is a little slow and there's no tutorial to help you figure out what you need to do.

Totally forgivable for the amount of content however. Extremely cute and heartwarming, but I wish we could do stuff faster, the pacing is pretty slow in general. Having to move back and forth across the map multiple time to move people around, feed em, etc. got old really quickly. Would be better if you could \n\n1. Make multiple people follow you (ability to interact with multiple actors at once, starts with 1 max and goes up progressively as you play?)\n2. Get running shoes early on or something that lets you move faster... Roller blades or a bicycle would be cooler.\n3. More ways to get food, or more ingredients at least to create soups.\n4. Smarter AIs, although it's fair considering it was made during a game jam.\n\nMusic was very serene and a big part in setting the gentle mood of gathering cute insects to interact together and be happy.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Lynnaira","author_uid":"1007174","time":"2017-12-09T15:20:12Z","epoch":1512832812,"modified":1512832812,"text":"wow, very impressive for such a short amount of time! graphics were great, the music was very chill and calming. great job! \"^)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Iluvatar","author_uid":"1004018","time":"2017-12-09T16:13:39Z","epoch":1512836019,"modified":1512836019,"text":"The artstyle was incredible, and music too.
