Our interpretation of the jam theme is a little home decorator. Choose how you want the little magpie to decorate it's first flat away from Mama Magpie's nest~ 

 The game can be played in Web or Downloaded, whichever you prefer~ We recommend you play in Full Screen

。ₓ ू ₒ ु ˚ ू ₒ ु ₓ。。ₓ ू ₒ ु ˚ ू ₒ ु ₓ。

Interact with the game by clicking and dragging a piece of furniture into your flat.  Feel free to experiment by moving stuff around, trying different combinations (there are 25 cute and sometimes useful pieces of furniture)  and once you are happy with your new home press the Done sign~

You will receive a super cute polaroid of your magnificent magpie flat! We would love to see what you come up with so send us your screenshots on Twitter!

This game was made for LudumDare54 with the theme 'Limited Space'. We interpreted the limitation as a tiny student flat that could never fit all the items you brought along in celebration of me starting my PhD this week~

Wonderful game!! The art and vibe is super soothing, and I love the choice of a magpie as the character :3

There's a surprising amount of customisation to be had, I had fun! 

Thank you for your lovely comment and I am glad you had fun! Stay tuned for some more cool stuff coming in the next few months (how I wish I could just make indie games all day haha) :3

At first I thought this was a puzzle game, but I was delighted when I realised all the items couldn't fit and it was actually a room decorator! Love how some of the items are animated :)) Super cute story and art as usual~ 💗

Oh my gosh your room is absolutely adorable!! I just love seeing all the cool thing players come up with! <3 And thank you so much for the lovely feedback as well, it means the wold!!

Was super cute and cosy! Reminded me of unpacking, and it was super adorable to see how each room was different and could change for every single person!

Thank you for the lovely comment and also the video! I am glad you had a good time making your room! That was absolutely the vibe we were going for~

This is such a freaking cute game, and I love all of the comments as the items keep coming out. I also appreciated that I could be all: "actually... this is nicer than this, I'm getting rid of it." And it absolutely captured the "I'm sad I don't have enough space but I need to get rid of this" vibe with the cat shelves from "when cats ruled the world" 🤣 

All that to say: I LOVE THIS!

Thank you so much for playing our game and I am glad you had a good time! It really warms my heart to hear that you liked all the small details and jokes we added hehe :3

It's so amazing seeing peoples rooms come to life! Thank you!! 

You're so welcome! I actually took a screenshot of my room because I thought it was so cool actually creating a room rather than just "fitting stuff" and then the game had that screen to share it and I had to grab that screenshot too :D Removing the lines made the image even cooler, and it makes me wanna play it again to make my room as nice as possible. I've seen some really awesome pics from others!

Bro i thought it was a fucking suitcase and jammed everything in there *sob*

Ahahaha, that should totally be the follow up game! :3

A very cute and soothing piece of work!

I really liked that each piece of furniture had its own episode.

And the movement of the magpie is so cute!

I was wondering until the end what to put in the room because I couldn't put all the furniture, but I couldn't quit putting the cat tower in the hope that my cute little magpie would take a nap on the cat tower when she was tired!

Thank you for playing and thank you for the review, it is as thoughtful as always! 

Hehe I really really like the cat tower as well, I love the idea of a magpie sleeping in a cat tree!
