I really enjoyed the vibe, art and little things, like actually getting better after traying to draw multiple times. Also, fully voiced intro, nice.

Windows was giving me some sus notifications after download, but it worked even after deleting the culprit.

This really brings me back! I love the vibe, you did an amazing job! I had such a hoot playing and the voice acting added such a nice touch

This game is sweet! Got 3 endings and maybe could've gotten more (not sure how much there is), but I guess there's only 4 of them?

Cool game, I like the art. The original voice acting was a nice touch. I apricate the fact that it has different endings.

This one looks and sounds excellent, but I can't risk it. Even if it is probably safe. 😟

The art style is incredible

The graphics are awesome and it's refreshing to see the Point & Click genre making a comeback.

Enjoyed the twist on lock-down in a different era! I liked all the things I could do. Good vibes!

all i did was draw and play videogames. just like real life!
Jokes aside, this is really cute. I love the art so much! It's hard to convey space in a point-and-click adventure, but you did really well. I also love the progression of the stick figure becoming a competent sketch.

Ah this is a super neat idea, i loved it! The graphics were adorable, and really nice. I love that you have multiple endings, and you can decide where to develop your skills. I certainly see this how this idea could be expanded --> you might take multiple pathes of development, and those could influence eachother. For example drawing + pets gives you pet drawings, whereas drawing + politics give you sarcastic comedies etc... Anyway super job, congratulations!

Beautiful art and design, it felt kinda cosy and a little nostalgic. And definitely reminded me of those weird times few years ago. Well done, I got the artist ending!

Nice concept and lovely style!

Maybe the world hasn't change too much, this kind of thought strikes on me every time I hear a city pop music.

- Nice graphics and cozy atmosphere.
- The voice over was nice, but too surprising and loud
- The ending could not be advanced with the mouse, which I found weird, and you get to see the German menu only after the credits.
- At first I thought that I was getting the same drawing event with the stick man and skipped it, glad to find out there actually was some progress with that.

We fixed the problem with the Plugin and the German menue, we will lower the volume of the voice acting.
Thank you very much for your feedback!@ellaris

This is some nice art. The scope of the game is just perfect not to long and an ending . Good job.

An interesting concept, albeit letting the player try an event multiple times before triggering the "improvement" led to a little confusion.

Very pretty art, and banging music. Good voice acting too, it's pretty rare to see that in a jam game!

I wish I only gained 3 lbs in lockdown 🤣

This was fun to play through. It would be nice if items you can interact could highlight if you mouse over them. The art and music were great!
