Dad's Safari

Arrow keys move, Z selects

You are a high profile dad salesman and your clientele demand only the best poached fathers. Sell your dads to the highest bidder in this Dad Safari video cassette for your Pico-8 Entertainment System

Some notes: I'm not an artist so the art is super simple.
There are minor and game stopping bugs galore
I was waiting for the new Pico-8 update (which from what I know never came) to add animations to the battle system.

Dad jokes abound! Surprise dads are surprise. I like how you can make a complacent dads disappointed by throwing rocks at them.

Wow! I love that you made a pico 8 game :) I'm impressed what you managed to get out of it especially knowing the limitations of pico 8. Pretty ambitious. The dad jokes were pretty cute too.

An awesome start, but a little more game to it would've been very nice.
