Collect materials and build furniture for your tiny mouse friend - Cashew. Help them decorate their home however you like!
Character
Cashew
A little mouse that recently moved into a little corner of the woods, they contacted a human carpenter to build and decorate their place for them, as strange as that is for mice...
Instructions
Collect the materials that appear in the grassy areas of the game by clicking on them, and use them to create furniture in the build menu.
After finishing your furniture, click on the build icon to save your creation.
In the home view, click on the furniture tab to pull up your completed pieces.
Drag them onto the screen to place, and then drag them to your desired location!

I see lots of other comments on the happiness of nailing, so I wanted to make sure the extremely satisfying sound of gathering materials also gets some praise. I, er, may have collected much more than needed ... it's a very good sound!
If you think just because you're a cute little mouse that I'll do extensive carpentry work for you with no payment Cashew...you'd be absolutely correct what a cutiepie <3
Seriously though this is so CUTE!!! I adorreee the art style so much, Cashew is so adorable <3<3 I love how you did the crafting process, it's simplistic enough to be short and easy but involved enough that it's not just click click done. Though it would've been cool to be able to rotate furniture, having the bed against the door wall is NOT feng shui Cashew, for shame.
Ah but I can't stay mad at her, she gave me some pebbles she found!! :3
This game is so cute!! I'm a big fan of the music and cozy vibes :)
Omg so freaking cute. I only have one complaint; the auto select during the building process was infuriating that I could not set the pieces correctly.
Thanks for the feedback! Ran out of time to figure that issue out in the initial jam, but I just discovered a fix and have updated it in the new build: version 1.8!
Totally understand. :D Thank you the game will be more calming now. ^_^
You all did such a fabulous job with this little game! Love the music and how well you were able to polish the art & gameplay within the timeline!
Are you thinking of turning it into something bigger down the road?
Thanks! The team really pulled through, despite some challenges. I'm really proud of what we made.
Haven't discussed it with the rest of the team, but I'd be open to working on an expanded version if there's enough interest.
I honestly can't believe how utterly adorable this game is! The programming is so fluid and more-ish, and the art is so expressive and polished. Well done team Bento!
Thank you!
