FEATURES

Traverse a gorgeous world in VR, meet adorable creatures, and cook them! (Or for them, usually.)

That tree can be climbed and its apples picked. The mushroom on the table can be dynamically cut. Utilize a robust physics engine and your own hands to get the full cooking experience!
-
Meet a wide cast of characters that you can help in various ways. Cook a meal for them, help them go back to bed, or just please stop accidentally breaking their stuff!

Ponder what exactly is the deal with these acorns!
