~~~~~
After a long night of partying in the wizard's tower, you, his familiar, need to clean the place up before he gets home!
Trash the trash, shelve the books, and sabotage your wizard to buy yourself time.
~~~~~
(NOTE: there are 4 cheat codes you may find and enter somewhere, their use has not been deeply playtested and may lead to inaccurate trash counts. I find cheats fun but if any bugs occur, blame Cheat Cody.)
CONTROLS
- Movement - WASD (or controller input)
- Grab/Interact - E (or controller X)
- Hover in Place - Space (or controller B)
- Hold the hover button while hovering to suck in trash
- Escape/Enter/Start Button to pause game
Special Thanks to J McClendon, Amara Snow-Miller, and our playtesters:
- TL Jordan
- Syd
- Chris White
- Claire Nicholson
- Olivia D'Sousa
Known Bugs with Unknown Solutions:
- Books are able to shelve themselves (I chock it up to magic)
- Game over / Game won cards may not scale to window size
- Music may get caught on itself when re-entering/exiting the tutorial nest
- Framerate issues when holding a certain amount of trash
- This should not be as bad if you download the desktop build

Great Work! Playing this felt nostalgic somehow
Adorable playable character~!
Trash spawn rate feels a bit high.
Good work though!
well cant get the trash in the walls and the hover suction thing doesnt seem to happen either, so cant fully clean the place :-(
nevermind.
you short press space to start hover, then press and hold it to do the suction cleanup :-)
I'm glad you figured it out! You're also far from the first person who had some trouble with that, so I just snuck in a last-minute update to clarify that part of the tutorial. Thank you for playing!
