You come across an abandoned plush toy. You decide to pick it up, and as you do, it vibrates. There’s a torn hole in its back. Inside, you find a cell phone. It has ONE unread message.

What does the message say?

For the AdventureX build of our game, I added a handy keyboard shortcut that resets the game and jumps into the attract/demo screen. Quite happy with how it turned out 😊

🖱️Update 0.3.0 Sneak Peek: Cursors

We felt the old cursors lacked personality and wanted them to better convey the action.

We hired a designer to lend us a hand (pun intended) and he really delivered!

Thrilled to see over 400 players have tried our demo on @itch.io! ❤️

It might not seem much, but just two weeks ago, only our friends and family had played it. So seeing so many strangers now play and enjoy it is super motivating!

Working on our next demo update.

I just implemented a small change request by our @itch.io demo players: ability to skip the dialogue text animation.

The bulletin board scene is also coming along nicely. Still a WIP, but here's a sneak peek👇
