Have you ever wanted to dress your very own monster? Here’s the game for you!
(yes, there’s a swimsuit edition)

(use your trusty left mouse button)

(I know the overlap on objects mess some things up, but i believe it should be enjoyable anyway)

Really cool graphics, i love the context of the trapped fashion master. When you begin the game and see the shadow of what seems a pretty usual girl strentenghs the immersion. It's truly a fashion disaster, too bad we can't hear it growling. Thanks for the game.

Ha! I used to play these dressing games when I was a child. Love the twist you added, and the beginning when she morphs into that? Fun. :)

Dressing game why I didn't think of this! Fresh idea xephrys visuals looking good and nice comedic flavour to the game! I'm not sure if i failed after the dressup or should i retry because the monster didn't enjoy my fasion? A little unclear hehe. Nice idea!

Love you idea of a lovecraftian dressing game Xephrys ! It has a very funny touch to it. Like T8kk I thought it was a little unclear in the end. I also noticed that when removing outfits to try another they all ultimately stacked in the middle of the selection window.
Overall I really liked it, here's my take on this fashion disaster !

@desdemone @t8kk i'm probably the most bummed out that i couldn't fix up a proper ending to the game, which is a priority i'll definitely be applying to future jams :) the object stacking was both unfortunate and stupidly easy to fix in hindsight

Happy to hear it was entertaining though!

Finally a game that suits me perfectly. I like the mix of sugary and aaaargh-y things ;D

My favourite bit was leaning forwards, squinting hard, and trying to figure out how the anatomy worked. (I'm going to go out on a limb and say that there are some things not meant to be Known by the mortal mind)

I like the fun and strange combinations that you can achieve. The art fits very well with the game style and i like the clothes choices. But once i finished dressing the monster I dont have nothing more to do.

Funny crazy idea! Thanks for sharing!

(Side note: I believe in the compo you are supposed to create all the game assets, including music, even if you opt-out of the "audio" category).
