great game to kill a few hours! great soundtrack, funny characters, and nice atmosphere
A good game that's faithful to what it strives to be. A bit shorter than expected, but the time itself I spent in it was a pleasant experience. Extra point for making me think the chest puzzle was a more intricate puzzle than it actually was; it made me laugh out loud when I found out what the actual way to solve it was. 9/10
sludge <3 cute and short, puzzles are fairly simple graphics and story are charming demo (~15min) was representative of full game (~2hr)
Delicious sludge. [spoiler]Watch out for de spooky ghost![/spoiler]
Cute little point and click game.
Such a nice game! everything from the artstyle and the soundtrack, to the funny moments just makes this game so worth playing :D I know that there has been put so much effort into it, and you can really feel that! I can't wait to continue with more playthoughts and see what other secrets i might find! <3
it's fine. weird that there doesnt appear to be the modern point and click staple of hold tab or some button to highlight all interactables. definitely took me longer in some sections cause I didnt realize I could click certain things. also 1 section, I have no idea how I got to a certain area, but I was wandering around forever just to find a computer chip. overall enjoyed it, real weird
