That was adorable, great little piece of work tanimayto <3

"...I secured some juicy funding... which is entirely allocated to music and sound effects..."

We noticed something good in our ears when this started playing. Cartoon is looking amazing as always. Can you please throw us off your trail by putting out some low quality cartoons for a little while? It will give us an excuse to stop refreshing our browsers in anticipation for your next cartoon.

thank you! I'll see what I can do

... the rest of the song has been surrendered,
to people that are emotionally distempered.

Writing this was a bad idea,
sorry my father Jerry Garcia.

It was a metaphor, he's not really my dad.
A 90s reference: Sinbad

Things are getting a little derailed,
Jegsh42 I'm sorry I failed.

The lyrics were good, now they are bad
Jerry Garcia is officially sad

bullshit

J/k, I'm giving the game it's test run right now and noticing that exiting the settings menu is... impossible? Is there a button I'm missing? If I go full screen looking for a button will I be stuck in this game forever? Am I supposed to listen to Lady (Hear Me Tonight) (Hear Me Tonight) by Modjo for the rest of my life? Is that part of the game? I'm gonna refresh my browser and avoid the settings for now.

So I almost immediately went to bed not realizing it would end the game. There should be a warning on the bed like "we worked really hard on this game, only use the bed if you must..." then I got stuck on the Results page and I was reliving my settings nightmare. I had to refresh my browser, I should avoid the bed for now.

The village is amazingly colorful and the art is so beauteous. I FOUND A BEACH BALL, I'M GONNA FIGHT THIS BEACH BALL FOR THE NEXT FIVE MINUTES. I'm actually very impressed, I've been trying to get it stuck in such a way that the audio glitches or I can't unstuck it but the broom is very efficient at unstucking the ball. Good stuff. The sit down illustration is the cutest thing ever, seeing her eyes dilate like that reminds me of what it felt like to look into the mirror after doing mushrooms in college. I CAN PET THE SHEEP?? This game is perfect. OH NO I CAN SWEEP THE SHEEP TOO D:

Game feels a little funny just running into barns and sweeping stuff, a "to-do list" on the wall of her house might give people a little more incentive to aim themselves towards objectives? A sprint button might be a decent addition but that might shorten an already short game, don't listen to me.

As a landscaper myself I found the ability to sweep away leaf piles HIGHLY UNREALISTIC but a nice additional bit of code, sweet deal <3

Loved the work y'all put into the fishing mini game. THE BEACH BALL FOUND IT'S WAY BACK TO THE BEACH, I'M GONNA FUCK IT UP FOR A FEW MINUTES, alright that was fun. As someone that grew up on an island, if you do a 2.0 version of this game you need to include a space in Maple's house to collect seashells and a jar to put beach glass in. Just an idea, tiny observation based on real life doings.

I remembered Garden showing off her crab animation so I looked around the beach for the crab and found a sheep. It doesn't make sense but I will pet the sheep. I feel so much better now. THE CRAB RAN AWAY, WHAT? I JUST WANTED TO PET IT D:<, I'll be back to see if the crab returns. Maybe I'm supposed to hit it with my broom...

Ok, I just found sheep lady morgan, time to pet the sheep again...

I hooked the cat up with fish, nice. I got the person their glasses. Felt bad taking the doll from the dog, perhaps 2.0 needs an Indiana Jones esque swap, trade the dog a doll for a doll?

WOW, HELENA DIDN'T EVEN PAY ME FOR CLEANING HER HOUSE. IT'S A MAID SERVICE NOT A MAID SLAVERY- SHE SHOULD PAY ME NOW. I DEMAND A DOLL TO GIVE TO THE DOG >:C

Alright, I'm gonna quietly enjoy the rest of the game. Sorry to drop a bunch of suggestions on you after you've finished the game, especially since y'all invited me into the game Discord and I was inert the entire time. Would love to see what you guys could do with this material on a budget. Maple 2.0 needs microtransactions for additional outfits and OST purchases, wink-wink, nudge-nudge.

Edit I: At least the guy agrees with me that I need to give the dog a new toy.
Edit II: This is the cutest game ever.
Edit III: THE BALL HAS BEEN LOST TO THE OCEAN, WHYYY?????
Edit IV: I caught a Garden while fishing. Sweet deal.
Edit V: I'm trying really hard to enjoy the tea. Do I need to sit on this bench for a set amount of time?
Edit VI: I left the room to make breakfast and in that time I finished the tea. That was a little weird but I'm glad I was able to enjoy the tea...

Bleak-Creep responds:

Haha, I can't believe how much you wrote, and how much some of that made me laugh. It seems like you're playing the game right by petting all the sheep though.

We're gonna update that options menu on the title screen later today! It's technically just an alternate version of the pause menu, so all you need to is hit "P" to close out of it right now, but it's not super clear. (There's a to do list on the pause screen too if you go to the items tab)

I really like the beach ball too though! It wasn't going to move originally, but once I played the game for the first time I asked Peti if we could make it happen, and they obliged. :)

And the crab is actually pretty rare. I've really only seen him hanging out on the beach on a couple different occasions. He's a happy little guy though.

WOOHOO, game works :)

This is my first robot day sub I'm looking at, so technically you're # 1 as of this review. I recognized all that Pixel Day music, I roll hard with the NG music scene. I don't know much about coding games but for a small game it's fairly well done. The art is adorable and fits the holiday. If I remember correctly there weren't many games produced for Pixel Day. Sometimes you can nab some decent Newgrounds prizes when you get low turn out for certain genres of content. This definitely doesn't come off like something that was rushed but I'm curious what you would do if you put more time into it?

I was initially confused by that small portal at the end of each lap. Since you can program it to enlarge once a certain parameter is met, maybe that initial portal could be replaced with an arrow? I kept jumping at it trying to activate it and got a little confused when rolling to the right sent me back to the beginning. I reread the directions and made a few assumptions to compensate for my confusion. Also, it's a little sad that the portal doesn't immediately enlarge once you get enough swag. I ran out of time having to complete another loop :'C

Love the work you put into this and good luck with RobotDay Chdonga!

no he hates us and our game

This is a lot of fun! Melodies are romantic, the pulse goes hard. I wish there was more breakage like around 2:12 but you do you. I'm not on good speakers right now but the wave doesn't look as full for the breaks. Without hearing the subsonic sounds I'm guessing that big four to the floor kick drum was filling up massive amounts of space. That dnb section might have had some space to get compressed a little forwards? Wish I had my headphones right now, I wanna know if there's a sub bass doing work :'c

I'll come back to this later for the melodies <3

...and I will stuff these into the decades old Soro folder. You make great resources :p

sorohanro responds:

More to come in the future ;)
You always make awesome stuff out of them.

I wanted to get something together for the mall collab but failed to do anything because lazy. Love this melody, chords are magic, beat holds down the foundation perfectly. Not sure I agree with a house groove being certified "mall music" but it grooves really nice. All you need is Marc Rebillet in a German grocery store screaming in the background @ 1:30 and it's 100% funked up <3

Casper responds:

I guess "house" itself is more so club music, the song's instrumentation is more mall-y haha, i liked the rhythm and how it fit tho. I wasn't too fussed about making it tradionally mall or whatever, just went for something funky and fun, made the first part during jamuary and the switchup at 1:30 was done like one day before the deadline lmao. Transition is a bit rushed but I actually think it fits in the context

I love bombing you with favorites, my user page temporarily get's cute characters, flowers, and colors from the thumbnails :3

Bleak-Creep responds:

Gotta have a little coziness in your day. :)

Despite your feelings on getting lazy with the background, it works well. The textures really give off the vibe that every nook and cranny is considered. Colors and shadows pop as always. Love your style BC <3

Bleak-Creep responds:

We always gotta have a bit of texture in there to dirty things up a little! I always work super clean, but I like it crunchy.

The texture is whimsical, love the colours! Absolutely cute :D
