This is wonderful, Alix! I think my favorites are the midday and dusk dragons; such a beautiful use of colors! But so many lovely designs throughout. Love all the cute fluffy ones too! These brought to mind the enchantment of seeing legendary pokemon as a kid, and dragon types were always my fave!

Pretty much everything I could have asked for in a follow-up to the first. I love how it explores a lot of "missing pieces" from the first game and dove much more deeply into a lot of complex themes. Every character is treated with such a high degree of empathy and nuance. I also love how humanized the parents are and that whole aspect is such a brilliant portrayal of how complicated those relationships can be (Diya’s one with her mom hit close to home for me in several ways). Min’s character development is amazing and her positive relationship with Diya makes me melt into a puddle of happy tears (as did the ending, which felt like a beautiful culmination of everything both games stand for). It’s so incredibly difficult to balance being so real and so raucously hilarious but both games pull it off amazingly. Akarsha’s texts never failed to absolutely destroy me lmao Thank-you so much again for making both games! They're both all-timers and I’ll def. be recommending them as much as I can going forward!

I loved every second of this, thank-you so much for making it! It’s so immensely heartwarming, real, and absolutely hilarious. The scene in the café at the end will forever fill my heart with joy. <3 I actually just finished the also amazing sequel and will post more thoughts there!

Really unique little game! Really love the sound design and vibes! And the art and animation is great, sort of a Kirby’s Dream Land 3 vibe! Took a minute to get the hang of it, but was a nice game to just chill out to and vibe with! <3

This is so cute! Love the animation on the dragon, and the silly tongue sound effect made me smile so much lol Really fun music too!

I made an account just to comment and give this a five star rating. Loved this, Kyle. Seriously clever is all sorts of delightful little ways. It was fun thinking about the different paths I could have taken to the final genomster, and I especially enjoyed seeing all the fun ways that keeping Danielle around affected the adventure. I also love how, similar to Box Peek, this is like a "behind the scenes" story...like we're seeing how the creatures in a different game are created.

Very impressive sprite art as well, and of course great humor. I loved Onessa and Danielle's interplay, and stuff like the shotgun on the wall (I was pleased that continuing to examine it was rewarded with the "Not this time" at the very end lol). 

I do wish we got more from Ezekial at the end (as he was gathering some of the ingredients we didn't get, I thought maybe we'd see his genomster as well and how it compared to ours...then again I know there's tons of outcomes I didn't see...), but all-around I genuinely had a great time! It's really inspiring to see you creating these projects...looking forward to whatever you do next!

EDIT: I finally watched the group stream playthrough which I missed before...the Mama run was so good haha! My playthrough was pretty similar to Jones and I also got Street Night...except I even messed up the sloth puzzle because I was thinking Zelda block puzzle rules. The Revolting Punish Bolt and Ulba Dunta moving slowly due to low stats...so great lol
