Oh this game is so short and precious! Really like the cozy and chilling mood, the music is also great! Congrats! o/

What an adorable little game!

Lovely concept and very nicely executed. Very charming art compliments a very charming concept. Great music choice too!

Love the graphics style, but it's not very much of a game, is it? A bit more gameplay would have been nice.

On Firefox, the Enhanced Tracking Protection has to be disabled for the web version to load. Also pressing space scrolls the page in the web version.

Well this is short and sweet. I liked what little there was of it. Those lil mole feet got me good. I wish there had been a little more!

Such a sweet game! So glad for some more burrowing mammal love stories with this game jam. Great art style, very easy to play and the music added such a nice vibe! Great job!!

Very very cute. Unfortunately a little short but the visuals make up for it 100% :)

This is such a cute game! The art/music/sfx are great. While the gameplay is very simple, I feel like you could make some really challenging puzzles with the limited movement, so I think it's a pretty good proof of concept!

Great graphics! Liked the small intro, too :) I think it lacks some sort of challenge maybe, dangers to avoid, or perhaps a timer to try to get to the end as fast as possible ? But already pretty nice for a game jam :)

The chill music and the story at the beginning were the highlight for me, I wish there was some kind of challenge to finishing though, or at least some reflection of player decision in the game, maybe with more story beats as a reward? Very cute moles though!

Beautiful graphics and matches the music very well.

Unfortunately a short gameplay.

Hello fellow 'mole in love' based game maker!! I loved the flower in the mole's hair and the walking animation! Very sweet.

Super sweet game, a perfect first morning play, I saved this from earlier in the jam and I'm glad I did. I only wish there was more!
