The game is sometimes a little hard to control, being able to "become something" sometimes took a couple of attempts, but that's only a small thing. Also, not sure if it was a choice or not, but I would prefer things like turning the light on/off or barking to happen only once every spacebar press, instead of every single frame. Would just be the difference between Input.GetKey and Input.GetKeyDown.
Overall, I liked this one a lot! Fantastic job.
@saltfactory-studio Thank you for the kind feedback! Yes, the bench is a bit weird - the original plan was for everything to be a controllable object, but when I had to cut things, the bench ended up being one of the only things left as a non-essential possessive. Definitely a bit weird now haha but I'm glad you liked it!
@joeshanahan Glad you enjoyed it Joe! (And that nimnimnim noise was definitely not me recording in the early hours of the morning haha) Thank you for that tip - I felt the same way and couldn't quite sort it out in time, will definitely be updating it to include that change. Thanks!
@toppervideogames Thank you for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed it! The collision was the bane of my Sunday haha. I unfortunately had to give up on fixing the frog, but it's high on my post-jam fix list! Thanks!
@despdair Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked the writing :)
Web build when? :3
