Picayune
A downloadable game for Windows
I had been working on this game on-and-off for a year and a half through depression. It's not what I hoped it would be and I struggled to want to work on it, but I'm glad that I can finally release it. Thank you to my friends who believed in me.
Go into the cavern, little bear, and find your friend! You will fight monsters along the way, and meet allies too. Speak softly and carry a sharp wooden branch with which to hit bad guys, and you'll make it through okay.
This game is entirely keyboard-controlled. You can rebind the keys from the options menu. The defaults are A and S to attack, E to use equipped item, and Enter to pause.
You can save your game in the bed after the first area.
You can also choose which items to purchase or ignore, which areas to explore first, and there are a few secrets that might help you too.
The music is from Incompetech.com.

This game is really delightful, I love the visuals and the feeling of exploration, it makes me nostalgic for early freeware GameMaker games, it’s a vibe I really enjoy.
It’s especially fun to speedrun! The fact that almost all enemy encounters are optional makes it fun to plan routes, and it feels great mastering the soccer ball to get through fights quickly.
😏
how in the hell did you do that
I found the secret room with the extra blocks and marbles haha. Its a lot more fun to not use the secret room, though, in my opinion - there’s more combat, and more soccer ball!
Here’s a vid if you’d like to see the run!
The secret rabbit hideout! That is one of several secrets that I would never have expected anyone to find on their own. I have videos of hopefully all of the secrets on my Youtube channel, in case you want to check.
I am stunned and touched that you enjoy this game so much! I love that you made your own speedrun route through the game!
Oh my stars this is the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me. I always look back on what I make with endless negativity, but I'm so glad someone who played this game genuinely enjoyed it AND got what I was going for!!!!!
