Cool idea, and thing that it is harder longer you play is well thought out, i had 331 sec but in leaderboard i have only "Fetching..." in all positions.

I like the drawing, it makes the game a personnal touch. Interesting concept, had fun trying to survive.

Fun game! It took me a while to figure out what I was supposed to do, but once I got it going it was a good time. I survived for 249 seconds. I like the drawings and animations. They fit the theme of the game perfectly. The sounds and music were also nice.

Overall nice game! I appreciate the effort of putting in an online scoreboard (even though it doesn't work on web) I hope Macler is not based on a real person... :)

Got to 380 seconds, and there were no more items to use. The game could use some more player feedback, maybe better explanation on each item what is it good for. I really enjoyed your music!

Not a bad attempt for a little adventure style game. The graphics and music really set an interesting mood and it kind of had a decades old trippy kids movie feel. If there was a way to beat it without just eventually losing, I didn't find it. I ran out of items the first time and the second time gave all my money away :cry: . It was hard to try again after that to try and find the ending. If there is an ending, I'd give it another go. Well done on submitting another game! It's always an accomplishment. Thanks!

Good job! I was fully immersed in the game. Which is rare for gamejam-games :thumbsup:
It was stressful not knowing much about how the items were meant to be used, but that also brought me back to how adventure games back in the days worked. You would try every item with every situation to figure things out :smile:

A neat adventure/survival game. The art is unique and cute, and I enjoyed the sounds, added to the atmosphere :)

I found this surprisingly interesting, as I desperately tried everything I could to stop Macler from getting close. What a strange mood surrounding this, I like it

Nice game. First time I only lasted 88 seconds, after the old guy picked up the knife that I dropped on the ground. Second try I lasted 191 seconds. I stopped up the water with a key, but couldn't find anything else to stop it.

Good game. After the elderly man picked up the knife that I dropped on the ground the first time, I barely lasted 90 seconds. I lasted 201 seconds on my second attempt. I used a key to stop the water but couldn't think of anything else. https://tinyfishing.co

Thanks for sharing the downloading link for this game. I always play new games because I easily get bored with games. I want to read a blog on proofreading software reviews which I have found over here https://www.topwritersreview.com/blog/proofreading-software-reviews-proofread-anywhere/ and as well as I found your post. I found out that over here I can easily find a lot of gaming downloading links on other posts too.
