Acá dejo una corta reseña de Forest Star
I love the fact that you are releasing your game on Steam too for free because they are really good :D
OH GOD I KILLED MR MAUS I'M SO SORRY DAMN YOU OWL
lol, made my day, you are a good person xD
hey, i'm curious how you made the menu display the way you did (with the achievements and character relations visible on it)
I created my own plugin to modify the code for the menu and item windows, and made new windows for the achievements and animals.
Wonderful game. I finished it in 1hr and 17min and got the 'Social Animal' and 'Story time' achievements. I was friendly to all animals except the mouse, which died because i had the Owl as my companion when i talked to him :(
I LOVE the tortoise though - all the dialogue with the rocks really cracked me up. Awesome game.
Glad you enjoyed the game! I'm also happy you enjoyed talking to the rocks - not sure how many people would end up doing that so I wanted it to be rewarding!
adorable and fun
I'm happy you found it fun! :)
What a cute game! I liked how the various companions affected the gameplay, but the tortoise is soooo slow! (luckily he wasn't my companion long)
Ha ha, yeah, the tortoise has to have a disadvantage otherwise it's too good a companion! :) Glad you enjoyed the game!
Another game from you, I think to myself: it will be good. I was not disappointed, again! Lovely game.
Aw, thanks for letting me know, fizzlymike!
so cute and interesting :0
Thanks for playing, and I'm glad you found it interesting!

Thanks for playing, and glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you SeaPhoenix
Oh, you're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
