has this person never heard of a goddamn leaf blower. my fingers hurt. I am pissed off. GET A LEAF BLOWER.
Short, but creepy 😵💫 I enjoyed it! ☺️
That’s such a creative idea! Great job. Your game is up third.
This was a fun one. Found all but one item. Still wanted to keep the giant spider as a pet, though.
Fun!!!
13 out of 13 first try???? I'm either too much of an obsessive cleaner or this is normal lmaoo!
The sounds are very good, this was a very good experience!
i got 10 out of 13 first try! this is a really cool game
Not sure if you intended it, but this really reminds me of the short story The Flowers by Alice Walker. Great game, really enjoyed it.
This game was satisfying. Great job!
For being made for a gamejam, this was not too bad at all! Solid raking simulator with a sinister twist behind it. I totally didnt truck cleaning the whole thing per day and making leaf piles so big the game engine cried xD. Made a video on it.
i have no idea how you made the raking so accurate but this was a great game. Good job!!
I wasn't expecting this game to turn out to be a psychological horror game until I progress. The CRT distorted screen and the music choices as you progress was a nice touch to the theme of the game's story. The rake was challenging unless you have enough patience to use the mouse. Overall, this was a decent game to play and thank you for creating this one.
I got 13 of 13 items first try
I love the slow decay of the visuals, the sound and feel of taking care of the leaves, the bits and pieces of trash and... other stuff you keep finding...... great play, loved every second of it.
super unsettling, great job!!!
good however the rake is practically useless since you can just flick your mouse while using the hands
ngl, my play testers did not realize this. People who didn't know how to flick found the game way too slow, so I made hands more generous with leaf grabs. Congrats on being one of my elite players!
Strong flash game vibes here, love it! I have nothing bad to say here, I do think you could slow down the event when we see the knife and the corpse though... You can detect the knife without seeing it, same goes for the corpse. Other than that this was great, good job! :p
Thanks for playing!!!
A perfect game to satisfy my inner order freak. Very cool raking mechanic and overall atmosphere. Great work!
My dream job :P
In my head-canon we play as the murderer and are like "no officer I was not getting rid of evidence I was just raking this special place in the woods and the arms were the police arresting us. Also nice spiders! Found 10/13. Nice game 9/10
got 10 out of 13 my first play though
Really cool game, perfect mix of horror and cosy fall vibes. Great job, I really enjoyed playing this one and finding all the clues.
cozy and light, I liked it❤
Wow! I love vibe of this came. Cozy but gets creepy. I've never seen a game concept like this. It didn't take too long to beat. The change in visuals were really interesting. Over all I enjoyed the experience
A little gameplay, a little critique ;)
Thanks for playing!
