Molly, Palli-Palli!

A game developed by “HAWK21” team for Gamejam+ 2024.

Development Time: 48 hours

 --------------------------------------------

“Huh? This ain’t food. What is this smell?”. “I wonder is that bright fire thing is delicious. My pawrents won’t comeback either, should I taste it?” She thought. But then as she moved herself closer to the bright fire she saw, the warmth intensified. No longer a gentle comfort. She flinched. “Oh my, I’m trapped!”. The image of her pawrents flashed in her mind—they wouldn’t return for hours. Her heart quickened, the need to escape pressing as the heat rose around her.

“Sorry, Pawrents. I'm not even angry over you right now. I bear no grudge against anyone. It's just that the world feels so, so wonderful right now. Throughout 9 lives, I alone am the honored one.” – Molly, thinking (for the first time in her life) about how she’d save herself from the house that’s burning down suddenly while her pawrents left her alone for hours at home. Trapped.

Overview:

“Meow meow meow meow. Meow? Meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow. Meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow: meow, meow, meow, meow, meow. Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow.

Meow meow, meow meow meow meow meow!” – Molly

 

Translation of the Overview:

(but due to language barrier, the original transcript was translated contextually):

“Occupational Health and Safety. Why did I mention it? Because that’s the only reason I survived the house fire. With this game, I want to share to whole world on what to do if this kind of accident ever happen to you: find towel, wet the towel. It helps with your breathing. Seek help, if you can’t go outside quickly, find ways to contact people nearby (since Molly didn’t have a phone, She looked after an alarm placed in her house).

Lastly, GET OUT!” - Molly
