its probably me doing something wrong, but ive collected dust and started the next day, but still am unable to use the phone. I am nearly out of food for moths... do i have to wait the day and not end it immediately?
I've got the same issue, I can't use the phone and newly hatched eggs don't disappear and instead get replaced by still images of the caterpillar, also I can't seem to use the book thing.
hmm thanks for letting me know, the book seems broken but im not sure about the rest. can you give me any details about which version you're playing (mac/windows/chrome/firefox etc)? also did you start recently or load a save from a while ago?
I started the game I think 2 days ago, and tried to log in yesterday on chrome. I had a save file before this, but I didn't use it. I think I started the save in version 1.4 and logged in when it was version 1.4.1. Not sure if this is helpful but yeah.
I agree with the other person who said that the walking felt a bit slow, perhaps in a future update, you could make an upgrade (shoes perhaps?) that you could buy from the telephone/make using the loom. Just an idea :)
This was a pleasure to play. The in-game manual was a nice idea. The fireflies help was cute. The save/sleep was done well. The background tune was a good choice. The game could be the foundation to something bigger.
I love this game :DD especially when its et in a Victorian house but there's one problem on the browser version the pale all the pale items like pale sick are negative but other than that its a cool relaxing game :DD
hey!! this game is very cute and had me playing it for a very long time, i like it a lot! however, one thing: the lift just stopped working after a while, i couldn't pull the cord. It made it very hard to play when you have a lot of moths that need feeding. i managed to get the lamp anyway, which i assume is the last unlockable item, so i think i finished it and i really enjoyed it!
My name is Antonia Gates, I manage the games at CoolmathGames.com. I really enjoyed Mothkeeper, I think it would be a great fit on our site!
I'm writing to ask if the game is available for non-exclusive licensing. Our licenses are totally non-exclusive, so you would maintain all of the IP rights and could continue to develop and distribute the game however you'd like to.
Please let me know if it is available, and how much it would cost. I'm looking forward to discussing this with you soon!
I've been absolutely loving this game! The graphics are adorable and the music is really lovely and chill. It's really cheered me up after a rough few days! :)
Just wanted to say that I've seen a few glitches, such as animations being slightly broken (the caterpillars sometimes vanish instead of crawling up the wall when they cocoon themselves) and other graphical issues (like invisible dust that I pick up by accident). On top of this, the pause menu doesn't pause the game (which can be quite stressful when you have such little time to work with). This has mostly happened on the PC download, but also a couple of times on the web version.
I'm going to continue supporting this game because it is such a joy to play and I hope that it brings you a lot of success, because it deserves recognition!
very cute and fun!! one thing i think would be nice is for the character to say a few more things after the initial tutorial section. for example when you fix up the pulley or the spinning wheel have it say something like "now i can carry things up more easily" or "now i can make new outfits for my wardrobe". oh and one last thing, when i first launched the game there were a bunch of super confusing sounds going on (at least one every few seconds)?? i thought "maybe the music just has a weird beat" and tried to turn it off in settings but that didn't work. eventually those extra sounds went away and i turned the music setting back on (which still didn't do anything since the music had been playing anyway). not sure what that was about.
thought I did, but then it stopped suddenly so I don’t think it was an issue with the game. My computer can sometimes cause interesting glitches and I have never found out why.
WOAH! this game is so cool! I mean, it's pretty small of course, but even then it's a lot of fun, and I really loved the monochromatic style too, along with all the Victorian style architecture, and you did a fantastic job with the music too! Definitely one of my favorite projects I've seen here on itch

for some reason i cant sell any of my sable dust, i have four of them, and i keep getting more, and i cant sell them. and i cant use the manual.
update, i now have twenty sable dust
and i guess i can now sell them, but they dont leave my inventory, so i guess i get a free money glitch :/
thanks for telling me! the book is broken atm, i'll have to look into the dust as well and try to patch it soon
should be fixed now, thanks for pointing it out! :)
ive played this game before, but... its been a while. I got to day 11 but still cant use the phone? is this normal?
the phone should become active once you collect your first dust (which drops when a caterpillar becomes a cocoon, then randomly from fed moths)
Thank you for your quick responses :D

sounds like a bug, sorry about that! if you started from an old save it may have been caused by that somehow

I made a new game, and Im playing on chrome.

that's a nice idea, thanks! i've opted to increase the base speed slightly in the next update
partly used your idea and made the outfits increase walk speed :)
This has to be one of my favorite games it's so cute and fun
wow thankyou!

I love this game :DD especially when its et in a Victorian house but there's one problem on the browser version the pale all the pale items like pale sick are negative but other than that its a cool relaxing game :DD

hey thanks so much for playing and sending your feedback, sorry about the lift!
hey uhh... the discord invite link appears to not work anymore and i really adore this game! Any chance you could update it pls?
oops sorry about that, should be working now! glad you enjoyed the game :)
whoa my heart wants to grow moths now <3 thank you for making this masterpiece
thanks so much for playing!
hello! How do you incubate the pale egg? itsbeen 3 days and it hasn't grown ive used a mix of both herbs
hi there! try adding both herbs to the incubator at once, it should glow white and incubate all eggs :)
How do you fix the pulley
and I love this game soo much I'm on day 50 and I really love taking care of my pet moths
thanks so much, really glad you're enjoying the game! you can fix the lift with wooden planks, similar to the ladders
Hi i’m sorry if this is a stupid question but how do I feed the pale moth?
you can feed them with either colour of herb, they're not fussy! :)

thanks so much for playing and letting me know about the bugs! i'm really glad it brought you some joy :D
how do you make clothing? dust or silk?
silk :)
are you supposed to be able to get eggs from all the moths?
yeah all types should be able to lay eggs, it's a random chance as long as they're fed
it should become available after they ring you the third time (which happens once you collect the dust from your first cocoon)
very cute and fun!! one thing i think would be nice is for the character to say a few more things after the initial tutorial section. for example when you fix up the pulley or the spinning wheel have it say something like "now i can carry things up more easily" or "now i can make new outfits for my wardrobe". oh and one last thing, when i first launched the game there were a bunch of super confusing sounds going on (at least one every few seconds)?? i thought "maybe the music just has a weird beat" and tried to turn it off in settings but that didn't work. eventually those extra sounds went away and i turned the music setting back on (which still didn't do anything since the music had been playing anyway). not sure what that was about.
thanks for your feedback! were these gamesounds or just audio glitches? also can i ask which version you're playing (web/windows/mac)?
the web version. they sounded like the sound effects i heard later in the game, so game sounds.
strange, thanks for letting me know
I like the game though! its so cute and chill
thanks! i didn't see the original comment, did you encounter an issue?
thought I did, but then it stopped suddenly so I don’t think it was an issue with the game. My computer can sometimes cause interesting glitches and I have never found out why.
can moths die? or do they just not make dust when they're not fed
they'll get pretty sad if they go unfed for a few days, but they won't perish
absolutely adorable game!
thankyou!
This game is so cute!
glad you like it, thanks for playing!

I'm broke AF right now, but when I get paid in a couple days I am SO contributing to this project!! Amazing work!!!
thanks so much!
Fun relaxing game!
thankyou!
Great little game! I really dig the mood you've created here.
thanks for playing!
I found a bug that isn't a moth. The Pale moth's silk and dust counters aren't subtracting when they're sold at market & I got crazy rich in 30 days.
are you playing the latest build? that should have been fixed in 1.2
Amazing Game! Love the smooth camera movement and music.
thanks so much!
