That Toilet... Feels so good. by Julyyyy

Awesome looking game with nice art, interesting dream-like atmosphere. Interested where the story eventually leads. Sadly I kind of got confused on how to continue after losing all coins.

I never thought I'd playa crane game that literally reflects nostalgia! The design is beautifully made and the setting of the narrative is pretty relatable.

The art is really well done and is really colorful! The concept of the game is cool as well with an interesting take on claw machine games.

I really like the vibe of this game. The art-style and music complement each other really well and the nostalgic perspective on the character's experience makes it incredibly easy to connect and relate with them.
I feel like I might have missed something, because I kept running out of coins for the crane.
The idea was unique, and fit the theme perfectly. Overall really nice one!

I had to play a second time after reading that i didn't thank the toilet paper god.
The sound is great and now i also want to make a crane game as i miss these scamy machines very much :)
Lots of nostalgia vibes and a setting we all can relate.

Cozy, pretty and way too relatable. What more could you want? Frankly, some music would have been nice to drive the ambience home, but it was very enjoyable nontheless. Thanks for making!

Very nice atmosphere, you nailed it.
I feel like the inevitable is easy to delay once you understand the different systems. I never ran really out of coins as their was always a Toilet Paper after I used all my coins. Nevertheless, very enjoyable game you have here :)

The audio and graphics work together beautifully, and create a fun, cozy atmosphere while contrasting the dull reality. The writing ranges from nostalgic to hilarious to serious, really fleshing out Zoe's inner world (which I think many of us can relate to)! The premise is fun and the stats at the end help in that "just one more attempt" feeling. The subject matter of daydreaming serves the theme well. Good work.

This is super, super cute! I love the take on the theme here and the humor is so gentle that it doesn't interfere with the aesthetic. Balance is super hard to get during game jams but you did it, well done. :D

Great game, felt nice and relaxing to play. Really chill vibe and the audio and graphics were a perfect fit. A well polish entry for the jam.

I didn't think this was going to be a claw machine game from reading the title, but it's very welcome! I love the art style and it feels very well polished. Good job!

Very polished awesome game, and the art/graphics were just simply amazing. It is very relacing to play, felt a bit boring tho but its just a personal thing ig.

What in the world did I just play, hahaha. xD

This kind of aesthetic is in nowadays, is it? Somehow I don't think I've used this chord progression much, I'll have to remember to give it a whirl next time...

The sfx are great here!

That is a really good game ! A lot of mechanics that go well together, a lovely art style and some cool music.

Good job :slight_smile:

Cute game, I enjoyed the artstyle and the cozy gameplay. The sound design is a bit jarring; the loud sounds take you out of an otherwise comfy experience.

Nice game, The entering fishing game noise is a crowning achievement.
