G'day! This is an old student project I made back in 2017, my very first proper game with a start to finish gameplay experience, it's a free short fun experience so please don't be too harsh, it's just an experimental whacky humour/story/puzzle game I made as I was learning the ropes of game development, so of course it's packed full of rookie mistakes, janky textures, and bugs galore.๐
And the games that inspired me when I was making it should be rather obvious too ๐
But I hope it still gives you a chuckle or two ๐ Enjoy.
I felt like releasing it to gather feedback to help me decide if it might be worth remaking it in future now that I'm more experienced as a game dev. ๐
I have several other old game prototypes I plan to release on itch in the near future too. Follow me for more updates on those and other things I'm working on: https://linktr.ee/geeksomniac
Cheers for checking it out! ๐
