The game is inspired by:
Beavers have saved Czech taxpayers $1.2m (£1m) by flooding a protected former army training site where a long-stalled dam was planned... Among nature’s great engineers, beavers have long been championed by environmentalists for their ability to protect against flooding, improve water quality and boost wildlife. [guardian]

<3 so lovely XD
Lovely little premise as a fellow bóbr enjoyer, I was looking forward to this game! Super excited to see you explore higher resolution graphics, seeing your wip stuff and this as well really hypes your future work up for me.
Mechanically my only complaint is maybe the camera could use a smoother movement/buffering, otherwise enjoyed what we have here.
The area was nicely designed, I was fearing the bunny getting flooded but looks like it got out! Well done!
Super fun, excellent design all around!
Thank you :)
Fun game! It was nice to explore the level each time I repaired the dam and discover new paths. I liked the character interactions too. The bunny cracked me up.
Thank you. I am glad to hear that you found it funny. I was worried about how the interactions will come across.
Very cute game! I really love the pixel art of all the animals :o)
I broke the double jump by holding spacebar and one of wasd and completed early muahaha
Yeah, pressing spacebar and up arrow key makes for a superjump :)
Oh, no. Let’s call it “speed running glitch” for now, and I will fix it after the jam. Thank you for reporting it.
lovely lil game :) glad to have played it
Nice game! I liked the little dialogues with the other animals
Thank you! I am happy that you liked the dialogues.
