Racoon Romance

Pretty good game! The only problem is that why is there so many random people walking around the neighborhood at night?

Nice Stealth game, I love the voice over! I found a bug where some town-folks would gather on a point and get stuck, but my head-canon is that they were part of a cult and secretly meeting to plan something

@noobman64 You're on to something. The lore is very deep.

Aww this is a cute little game! Gameplay felt a little repetitive once I got the hang of it, but for a jam it's pretty well polished. I will say it took me a while to understand what the sprint indicator in the top left was for, so I kept trying to sprint with 0 stamina left.

If you had more time, you could definitely add some variation to the mechanics, either different actions for the raccoon or the humans, or maybe different stuff you need to find, but you've got a solid base.

Cute & simple game, loved the story, made it more immersive and the simple graphics fit it well, splendid work!

Really fun and cute! I like the gameplay and art a lot. I thought the text was a bit difficult to read, and the dialogue during the story bits were very quiet compared to the other sounds in the game, but had fun with this overall!

Cute, and fun! A trash-rummaging stealth game is a great idea.

I couldn't tell if the light made me more noticeable, but I did like that you could hide in the bushes to shake off a pursuer. That being said, the decision making was a bit binary: it was either do the minigame super fast while no people were around, or just wait until they patrolled past the trash can. It would have added some extra depth if we had to constantly put ourselves in riskier situations for each new level.

I also enjoyed the narration between each chapter - it was a nice touch! Great work!

Nice work! Cool to have narration :)

its not about really good shiny things, its all about the cabbage
PROFOUND

this game is really shiny though!

Cute game! I loved the narration and wholesome underlying message.

I only came across one issue during gameplay. While I ran away from one pursuer, I got him hooked on to a fellow citizen (and annoyingly they happened to be sitting on top of one of the trash cans!)

Aside from that minor issue which was resolved by letting them see me and chase me, I stuck around and finished the whole game - loving every moment of it and even felt a little emotion at the end.

All in all a brilliant entry! Love is cabbage

Awesome little game, and really immersive! :) At first seemed easy, but by the end it was challenging enough. Though the minigame felt more like a chore than a game. I mean maybe I missed it, but I tried to find a way to complete it quicker, but I couldn't find one. So it wasn't challenging, just an artificial time gate. But again, I think I just missed to find the way to make it quicker! :D Oh, and a few times they managed to spot me while I was behind a house, but it wasn't really annoying.

Anyway, very nice game, enjoyed it, as a goodbye, here's a sneaky lookout on the roof. Cheers! :)

Completed for good ending)
It is almost impossible to be catched. It might be better if there were more enemyes like dogs which ran faster and u can hide behind bushes or on the tree or somewhere else)

nice running around felt really solid and badibadibadibadi was ringing in my head for quite a while till i figured out it was the sound of someone seeing and pursuing me. haha I liked the story. I ended up smell like little old cabbage.

The minigame is really nice to do! And the story is cute :smile:

A cute game which is carried by the lovely little story that goes along with it. The game play is decent, i really like the sprint mechanic after being chased by the townsfolk. It does get a little repetitive after a while, but wanting to finish the story I kept going with it.
Great work.

This story is so cute! I loved the voice over, the feeling of listening to a bedtime story.
As for the music, it tended to stop prematurely at each lvl. As for the gameplay, stealth isn't my cup of tea, but I did find the little gauge amusing (also, the gameplay for pressing the right timing to search the garbage cans). In my opinion, it would be interesting to introduce a little more diversity in the mechanics, so that there's more progression between each lvl. I found that lvl 2 was longer and more boring than the others, because there were 12 shiny things to collect, and not necessarily enough threats on the big map (my main difficulty was finding the last garbage can I hadn't searched yet :smile: ).

Very cute, and nice message, yes, listening is important to love ;)

good job, nice little game, I enjoyed it, thanks :-)

Funny and kind of nice raccoon romance story. I like it! And it's so deep - you don't need to chase all those shiny things, smelling like an old cabbage is more than enough! I'd say that to my 18-year-old me if I knew that!

the game has lots of polish, it's rly beautiful, will check out the src code for that. I wish the game had more variety in how you rummage thru trash bins, but it's a good entry nonetheless!
