SQUISH

A brand-new, joyful, cozy platformer about exploring a magical town, making witch-punk BFFs, and causing absolute chaos in the most wholesome way possible!

• Explore! Freely platform your way through the scenic bliss of Town Joyful, discovering whimsical-as-heck witch-folk and your new fav local businesses!

• Befriend! Charge up your cauldron and the town’s magic by talking to the witchy locals and going on cute quests to help them accomplish their hopes and dreams!

• Plant! Ward off dark magic and magic repressors by growing gardens with a variety of colorful flowers all around the town!

• OR just let your intrusive thoughts win! Redecorate the town! You can pick up almost any objects you see and stack 'em! 

A narrative world that holds space for our love of all things cute and cozy while also honoring our mess! Join us for absurdity and supportive-as-heck affirmations! 

• Set in the dreamy, witchy Town of Joyful. 
• Join a familiar named Squish, his bestie and aspiring "Witch Cup" champion Jenny, and an epic cast of quirky, relatable characters!
• Uncover why the town is rapidly losing its magical properties... 
• Investigate a mysterious outbreak of "Funky Dreams" plaguing the locals!
• AND, OF COURSE, deal with some HOT witch relationship drama!

THIS BUILD IS A SANDBOX PROTOTYPE!

This build is to test our quest system, and see which witchy characters you fantastic humans vibe with the most!

Our goals for the next build:
