Hey congrats on release.  First big game you've put on the Steamer, right?

[aimaina]

yeha but only because you said "big" because i released a steam game that is around 10 minutes long last year

[SquareWheel]

Right I remember, it was in a bundle of shorter games.

Well I hope Clockwork Calamity does well for you both.  I've seen the progress updates on itch.io.  It sounds cool.

quite a lot of mistakes and i think there's probably better ways to gather the mushrooms than what I do.
Also kinda had tunnel vision with the cloudy mixture float/springshroom combo to get the jetpack and 15sm present box, feels like it works pretty well though

[aimaina]

haha that run is so good. i love the strats. i want to try to make a more refined version with my advanced game knowledge....

[wilde32]

it's cheating for devs to speedrun their own games! unless you make it open source

play the game without accepting anything in the contract.

rip why am i selling my soul to this evil witch LOL.

first impressions after fiddling around for a bit - this game really gives off the vibes of a text adventure, despite being a plamformer

[hubol]

oh ducko are you bothered by the contract?

[dcco]

it's got an ominous feel to it but it didn't really bother me. i just thought maybe something funny would happen if i didn't check anything lol.

Finally got around to playing this Good-Ass Game. It's a Good-Ass Game.

I have every item in the museum except one, which I'm guessing is to the right of the Drummer plush. My only guess is if you can somehow trade for the Lovely Letter or Heart Locket (but not both, because then I'd be missing two items). Otherwise, I can only assume it's a random rock or something and definitely nothing interesting...

Also, is it intentional that petting the museum signs causes them to temporarily not list completion totals?

[aimaina]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

haha no that petting thing is not intentional! i am not even sure why that would happen off the top of my head.... i'll probably leave it alone until i can combine it with a more serious bugfix

there is nothing to the right of the drummer plushy, despite appearances. i am guessing you are missing
