Baby's first finished game ^^ I didn't have time to thoroughly check for bugs, but I hope you find a lil enjoyment out of this anyways!

i found an unexpected rpg maker gem, great storytelling, incredibly well done, this is definitely one of my favourites i came across [insert clapping]
i genuinely teared up a little at a couple of points
there were some bugs i noticed, but nothing game breaking, i was hooked the entire way through
I was really touched by the story, it was really sweet. And the extra developer room was cool too. Extremely polished and well made, great work! I noticed a bit of an issue with selecting interactive objects, for some reason you need to have the cat facing them in order to interact, it would have been nice if the game can have the cat automatically face the object for interaction, as I had to backtrack a few times to interact with them.
Could finally play this game and it was a blast! A real gem in this jam (pun unintended)! The amazing storytelling paired with the great visuals makes it really one of the best games of this jam. Well done!
Suggestions(optional):
- sometimes music is not playing (idk maybe audio prob) so fixing that could reinforce the atmosphere
Congratulations on finishing your first game! That's a great accomplishment.
Stunning art, absolutely beautiful, maybe a critique would be that the in game ui is the standard from rpg maker but given the time constraints it's not a big deal.
The wizard's house walls have some issues with collision.
Perla's description seems to be clipped, it reads "A young cat who hopes to become a great wizard someday. Phantasmo".
In gradma's house hallway you can walk through the plant.
When Winter searches for Midnight and you interact with a note in Mary's house Midnight will talk even if he is gone.
Mary's terrible group project members look like rpg horror characters (good).
Awesome story with good writing, i liked the real life inspiration of your cat and the bell and how you interpreted it in this story.
My favorite character was probably the wizard, but grandma is cool too, and Midnight obviously.
Fun npcs and cute scenery.
Fun puzzles, simple yet effective, elegant even.
Great ending, this game is a must play for any cat owners.
This game is pretty underrated, it deserves more attention! Amazing job!
It reminded me of those old indie japanese rpg maker games like Ib / the forest of drizzling rain but without the horror elements.
