Hi! Played on Mac and web via safari- couldn't manage to move around or collect clothes. Am I doing something wrong? I'll come back and play again and rate later. Thanks!

@joemid You have to click to select a character, then click the location to move to or an item to collect.

I like the stop motion, and being able to put on pretty clothes! To be honest, I couldn't tell if I was winning or losing a fight.

I like the style, and the humor is appreciative. Great job though!

Another interesting game. So many good ideas. i thought this theme was going to be bad but people are surprising me so far. Good game.

This is an interesting idea, though I think it needs a lot more feedback on what's going on in-game; the controls often felt unresponsive, though I'm not sure if it was bugs with the game or just that I was misunderstanding what was going on.

Couple notes:
- having a web game with WASD and also CTRL means you're gonna occasionally have people pressing CTRL+W and closing the tab. You may want to rethink that one, haha!
- the rendering of the clothes seemed to be a bit buggy, and they'd often swap between being on top of and behind characters at random:

Really funny idea! It would be great to have some form of feedback that you actually selected a character. Also mouse versus keyboard seems a bit unfair :D
