What a cozy, whimsical game! It gives me all the warm fuzzy feelings. The backgrounds are so cute, esp the paw prints on the walls which go so well with the paw print UI. (I can't get over how adorable the UI is!) The swishing tails and ears of the sprites are wonderful as well.
PawPrints has developed so much since I beta-read, and I love the changes! Super cool to learn more about MC and this safe haven for wandering dreamers too. I have also dreamt of writing story notes only to wake up and forget them XD
Also is that my name floating in a cloud? I caught it hahaha and used it to write a story, tried my best to make it make sense LOL
I loved the choices at the end and the little bit of the world lore that it reveals. "Enslaved by glowing screen" is probably relatable to my cats too. This was such a lovely journey, thank you for taking us along for the ride!
Ahhh thank you so much for playing! Your comments were sooo valuable, it made Paw Prints what it is right now ٩( ^ᴗ^ )۶
HAHA I didn't even realize that was your name, what a happy coincidence.
10/10 I love your story, would totally give it an award.
Yay I’m so glad to help! Hope to do more beta exchanges in the future ✨💕
😆 Ima pretend I was an honourable mention in here
And THANK YOU SO MUCH! 🥺🙏
