Impecável mesmo errando meu nome 

Obrigado :) pode deixar que no director's cut eu coloco mais um t no teu nome

Pool Friday Vibes for sure.

Love everything about the look, sound, texture. Good look with your thesis!

thank you so much!

Não entendi muito, mas me fez pensar. Gostei da viagem

Hehehe, muito obrigado por jogar! :)

I hope you got an amazing grade for this! Such a fever dream of a game, haha.

OMG thank you so much for your video! Really appreciate your commentary throughout it, and I'm very sorry that you had to blur out a good chunk of the game at its very end. I am yet to defend my thesis, so I am also hoping that I get a good grade with this game lol. But yeah, thank you for playing! :)

You're welcome! I think you've nailed it personally! It's very unique, and it's obvious how much effort this took you. I've only ever taken an intro animation class, but I can still very much appreciate the time that went into animating everything. As I said in the video, mixed media is always very interesting to look at.

This game is so good!

Thank you :)

I`m not sure what I just played, but it created a delicious friction in by brain

Now that's what I like to hear! Thank you for playing :)

Congrats, pal!
