Journey from Critter Grove

the only thing I will tell is the mouse slide to much on wood but the rest is cool

Okay, I'm extremely impressed by how solid the game is! It definitely captures that Tiny Creatures vibe, which I really love. The depth of field effect, along with the nighttime and rain, adds so much ambiance. Plus, the ability to transform into different creatures to solve puzzles is such a great feature. Good job!!

*I would suggest adding some GIFs to this page, like the moment when the depth of field effect kicks in or when transforming into an animal. This would really highlight the attention to detail and spark curiosity. I think this contribution is underrated!

That's an ambitious game! I did'nt manage to see the end of the game.

This platforming section is too hard for me, and I feel that the controls and the way the character behave is a little too unforgiving.

But I've manage to make my mouse take a little nap, and that's nice.


This game is the perfect example of 'don't judge a book by its cover.' The screenshots might make it look plain and unexciting, but once you play it, it's absolutely breathtaking. Sure, it doesn't have AAA graphics, but it looks great in action, and the transformations between the animals are just so charming!

Wow, this game was cool. The transformation mechanics were interesting, the setting was gorgeous, and overall this ambitious game succeeded with an interesting unique take on the theme!

@trioxxdreaper @chocolat-endive Thank you for playing. Sorry about the slippery wood, the end was a rush to finish.

@chariot Thanks for your very kind comment. We added some gifs :-)

@smielke @firefalls Thanks much!

The environment design and atmosphere is very well done and I like the idea of trying to navigate a creepy dangerous forest as a small defenseless creature.

The gameplay could have used some work though. The transformation mechanic in cool but I only found the butterfly since I couldn't get past the platforming section. The platforming felt too janky and unforgiving which made me quit after failing to climb the tree twice.

also. In the first area where you have to fly over the log, there's a little hole to the right between the log, the rock, and the hill where I flew over and then turned back into a mouse and got stuck.

Love the old fashion playstation visuals !

Cuet and interesting game, very neat aesthetics, the atmosphere overall is great, drew me in quite deep. Game-play was solid, though lacking something, but alright with a jam game. Good work on it!

It looks interesting and is quite fun to play. The mechanics in the game deserve special attention, well done)

just wanna shout out this game looks great!

druid mouse got cakes

man this brought me back to some awesome old school visuals, and I loved playing this. You did really well. Atmosphere in general was amazing and the gameplay was done well! I'd love to see you continue this!!

The vibes are off the charts with this one. Look and feel are extremely spot on for That Vibe, and it all came together very well. It's like if Toy Story and the Chuck E Cheese band got together in the forest. Very nice work!

Very cute game with cute design:) Models fits well in gameplay, but there are some problems with platforming(or its just skill issue, im suck in platformers) - character gets stuck in models and don't stop immideatly while stop running :(
Mood 5/5!

very cool vibes!

Very cute game. The mechanics to solve the puzzle by shapeshifting to different animals felt satisfying. It's easy to get caught in geometry when the transformation ends. One way to solve this is to include a level restart button. I felt it fit the theme really well, hope to see another entry from you next game jam!

Nice game. Great atmosphere.
I do like games with transformation mechanics. They barely lasted long enough to overcome the obstacle though and it was sometimes unclear where you had to go. The ant was especially tricky as I kept getting stuck on the log's collision.
The final platforming section was tough but I managed to escape in the end.
