Love the art style could be better with main characters walk animation, upgrades with money and of course please somebody put this lovely county an elevator spend 5min just to jump every block but its worth it!

Nice entry! I'm impressed at the scale of the world, and there's tons of attention to detail, with various monuments, little monsters hidden away, and scenery.

The music was nice, but the loop was short enough it got a little repetitive after a while.

I was unfortunately couldn't figure out how to get to the higher level, which is sad because I was looking forward to storming DonutCorp.

Great work for 72 hours!

The vibe of this game is really wholesame and joyful - The music fit perfect and the world was so cute. Sadly I couldn’t find out how to get up the stairs, but I enjoyed the time I spent!!! Good job, very cute

Hey folks! We've updated the jump based on your feedback to make the upper area more accessible! Wasn't perfect in order to get in by submission time.
Thanks for the kind words and time playing our game!

This is amazing. I had so much fun just running around and collecting dogs and dough. Reminds me of the collectathon games I used to play as a kid. 5/5

This was so fun. I didn't expect to see a collectathon in a ludum dare. Really well done. The artstyle and the relaxed music fit so well.

Very cute and nice world. It was fun to explore and give hotdog to the cyclops and sea monster. Physics were a little glitchy but I still wanted to complete the game.

Always refreshing to see a 3d game. Played well, looked good. I thought the main music loop was nice at first but got annoying after a while.

Crazy world you guys have created. Just immensely detailed, with lots to explore. Like the 3D UI hotdogs. The mustard looks tangy!

Dig the style on this one. :thumbsup: I do kind of wish the donut shop workers actually did something to you, and perhaps could chase you off the beach, but I got a kick out of the mechanic of firing long-range hotdogs into peoples' mouths. :smile: Nice job!

This one is certainly fun. I saw a more thorough exploratory playthrough on marcmagus' Twitch stream (including stacked cats and at least one chicken rolling away across the eternal ocean), and enjoyed a few minutes of playing it myself. Very chill. I did glitch into some of the steps and lock the game, including some jazzy scrambled UI while my hotdog vendor presumably fell through the pink sky.![hots dogs glitched into steps.png](///raw/e36/21/z/3a4b5.png)

@cjgladback I'm happy to hear you had fun! Haha yeah it turns out attaching a cart to the front of a character that continuously jams it into the islands colliders can cause that to happen sometimes :laughing: I've worked on it since the jam and hopefully fixed that issue *fingers crossed*. We haven't uploaded our post-jam build beyond a couple fixes yet though. Thanks for playing! It's really fun to see people enjoying the game.
