o love the but
Made a video
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~! 🐱
It's soo incredibly cute when Squish trips!
Thought I'd drop a video of my tallest tower so far. I reckon with enough experimenting I could get even higher heeheee
Soo cuuuuuuute. Love my little squishles <3
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.
Congrats on the launch Rich and Rohil! I've loved playing Squish.
