    The in-game sprites are so pop and cute, and I had so much fun just walking around this world, talking to people, and carrying things!
    Holding a cat or wearing a witch hat was absolutely adorable!
    I can’t wait to see where the story goes next.
    I want to lift Squish up and feel the fluffiness, meow~! 🐱

    Thought I'd drop a video of my tallest tower so far. I reckon with enough experimenting I could get even higher heeheee

    Beautiful! So much fun just exploring.

    every time squish trips over a pebble is HILARIOUS.

    Whole game could just be Squish tripping and it'd still be a 10/10 experience!

    Finally had a chance to sit down and play the release! Love the vibes, my fav thing to do is gather all the items and build the biggest tower possible hahaha. Also when I discovered I can plant seeds inside myself--now I can have an inner garden just for me!!!

    Congratulations on the launch! Such a cool game, love wrecking havoc by chucking things all over the place. My favourite pass time. Can't wait to see future developments!

    Well done! A fine little game with an adorable little guy. We will be watching his career with great interest.
