Currently, only the demo has released, I am working hard on the full version. I have no clue if I will release the full version, so stay tuned in case I do. I also really want to have a physical release, with a box and manual. However, I lack the skills to do this, so it's not guaranteed!

Thank you for making this! Can't wait to see how the final version turns out. Excited to see the updated art too!
Thank you so much!
waiting on the full version PLEASE 💜
Don't worry, friend! I have a plan to have a new area/feature added every update! I'll post about progress a lot, and tell if there are any delays, so you can follow me to get news!
i cant pick up the engine
Thanks for finding that out! Don't worry, in (hopefully) a few weeks, a new version will come out, with even better controls, better AI, and new art! Trust me, it'll be sweet.
nice
very good so far! One suggestion though, the 5 pikman flower only works when you have specifically 5 pikman. You cant pick it up with more than 5. Im not sure if you have the required amount set to a variable or not, but if you make it set to ‘greater than or equal to’ rather than ‘equal to’ that should fix it, unless there’s another reason you have it like that.
Thank you for finding that bug! I'll work on it right away!
