A Cozy Night In by AkwardWhale

[raw]
made by AkwardWhale for Ludum Dare 46 (JAM)

After finishing the Game Jam you must but very drained, well sit down, relax, make some pixel art and listen to lo-fi beats and keep your creativity alive in A Cozy Night In. Hope you can forgive my programmer art, but even tho this isn't very much of a typical "game" I still had a lot of fun making my first ever submitted Ludum Dare game. Hope I get to see what you end up craeting in the comments.

This is an extremely cosy experience - I can't imagine I kept playing it after spending whole game jam on pixel art! Love the music.

Hello, this is such a relaxing experience! I really like the "integrated" music player,The option to put the drawing up is just lovely. It would be awesome if we had a community to hang those pictures up for in the future :) Thank you! I relaxed and made this

It wasn't really a "game" but I still enjoyed it and the music is awesome.

Would be great if there was a way to save your images or see them in an art gallery, but I still enjoyed how chill the whole experience is.

Cute, nice and relaxing to listen to the music as playing around with some drawings. I had half expected for whatever you draw to be used in some part of a mini game but alas, that did not happen. Nice experience but less a game though.

Cool little tool. There should be an option to save my work on computer.
