I love the concept, especially that he loves socks so much. So cute! x\nThe animations and character art are adorable, I love the eating animatio especially.\nThe day cycle is done really nicely, I think it could be improved apon with a small in game clock that showed time passing so in the beginning you had an idea of how long the game would last. As when I first started playing I thought it was a night only game. That is until of course I played for a while.\n\nI particulalrly love how there's different socks with different meanings! I think this is a lovely customisable touch to the game that gives it replayability.\n\nOne thing I would improve- When Sock's looks through the dumpster it would be so cool to play a minigame where the outcome had something to do with how well you played. Just a thought.\n\nOverall an enjoyable little game, I will be keeping the tab open on my browser to continue to care for Socks <3 x","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"fishbrain","author_uid":"1000880","time":"2020-04-22T05:04:49Z","epoch":1587531889,"modified":1587531889,"text":"Awww... he looks so sad.

I feel i felt a little lost while playing not sure if its the type of thing you keep in a window open for a while like a tamagotchi say a few hours and then you comeback and forth to it? wasnt quite understanding how it worked 1\/) how long it takes to get health back. 2\/ ) do i just feed it and dumpster dive so a little more instructions in that area would be nice.

The art direction is beautiful and super cute. The gameplay is a bit hard to judge as a result of the slow pacing, but what I saw was very well done!

Also, if I could suggest there being something added to the looking for new supplies, I think it would be interesting (ie. something the user could do that would make it MORE LIKELY for you to encounter the raccoons, or MORE LIKELY to find a new item - maybe different socks can have different effects? Or looking through the dumpster at certain times at night would make you more likely to encounter raccoons?).\n\nOverall, good job on creating a cute game!\n","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Nghia Lam","author_uid":1159040,"time":"2020-04-23T05:41:09Z","epoch":1587620469,"modified":1587620469,"text":"The Art is superb, the theme is taken cleverly. :v: ","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"just-stanley","author_uid":"1189700","time":"2020-04-23T14:19:02Z","epoch":1587651542,"modified":1587651542,"text":"\"We chose something smaller scope so we\u2019d actually finish something this time.\" And finish it you did.

I like that the sock patterns don't move with the character, and change its ear colour, it's a small thing but it's a cool look! It really needs some sound so that I can leave it running in the background when the skunk goes to sleep, but know to go back when it wakes up - plus it would really just finish off an excellent game.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"marcusnystrand","author_uid":"1196098","time":"2020-05-06T14:54:53Z","epoch":1588776893,"modified":1588776893,"text":"Beautifully illustrated!
