Hi! I really tried my best to playthrough this game. However there are an issue during the chasing part with the hands and boxes: my keyboard stop responding to the shift and f keys at times, making it nearly impossible to go through. Had to stop playing it for now cause it just was becoming a frustrating experience ;-;
I'm terribly sorry this happened :(
its a known bug that we've fixed already but unfortunately we haven't uploaded the new patch.
thanks for giving it a try tho <3
oh okay! I'll download the patch whenever it comes out then! I was livestreaming your game so I was sad I couldn't finish it ;-; but I'll give it another shot if you update it!
Coming from a previous mdjd student, this is really cool. awesome project, keep it up!
This game is absolutely wonderful! I really love the art style and gameplay mechanics! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the kind words! <3
Thanks for giving LUCE a try! <3
