Fantastic game! Poignant and innovative! Works perfectly on Steam Deck.
i couldn't click on start, i couldn't even see me mouse pointer. i don't know why
I loved the concept of this game! Actually playing through the painting as the bunny was awesome. I really, really hope to see more like this and longer games. Great job! Feel free to check out my video below :)
Gave it a go...
Is a linux version possible?
Hi, it might be possible! :) I have no way of testing it, so there is no guarantee it will run smoothly. I will try to fix it as soon as I can, probably sometime this week.
Hey, if you want to you can send me the debug version so i can see if something's wrong
I have uploaded a linux version now, sorry for the delay! :) Let me know if it doesn't work and I will do my best to fix it.
Thanks!
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL GAME. VERY ASTONISHING.
