Seems like a genuinely fun game, but the movement, especially diagonally moving made me a little bit motion sick. Im not sure what it is exactly, but the choppy camera movement when the map is scrolling by feels weird to me.

Ill give it another try a little bit later, because from the few minutes I played it seems a very well executed game, fun idea and very beautifully done. 10/10 Will quack again

Amazing Game! I Like The Way The Quests Lead Into One Another!

Great work — the commentary works for me, base mechanics are solid and felt exactly how I'd expect, and a great sense of humor. Hard for me to pick a top highlight, but the music (esp eastern region and credits) and the philosopher/ur-questgiver are both up there.

Thanks for sharing your game!

Really liked the dev team back and forth, inspired by real-life experience I'm sure 😁

I really want give audio a 5/5 but I can't find it, since they are generated?

Great entry with a ton of heart... although TWENTY TWO dialogues in a row with the elder made me laugh :D

The best fetch quest game in this game jam bar none! The art style is so cute and the music choises fit well. So many tracks for different situations. Also loved the buggy scenes and the humor overall. 10/quack game, great job!

Was funny, nice music. The 22 starting dialog pages was a lot!

This was really fun, I liked how you handled unfinished areas and controlled the narrative. The music reminded me of pokemon tcg for the gameboy, and the gameplay was a lot like the cartoon network summer resort games I loved as a kid. Great work!

Great game! Great music and the AI made for a surprising and fun little gimmick! Great work!

Played through the whole game and it was great, got stuck on the glitched item quest a bit tho. Also I kept the cat :3

Your game should remind all of us how fetch quests can be good if the exploration is its own fun reward! Great job.

Amazing how so much can be done in such a short period of time and with a little bit of hope.

So, game aside, the credits theme song is an absolute banger. I mean generally, the music was great. Loved the 4th wall breaks.
Was the gameplay actually fun? That is debatable. But the vibe and the humor generally made up for it.
Great job!

Awesome game. Loved the in-game and end credits music. Wish I could have finished all the quests. Very cute graphics and great jokes. Loved it entirely. Great job.

Cute full game experience, enjoyed the cohesive vibe you were able to create between the music, art, and dialog from all of your team.
