What inspired your game?
mostly Jojo's Bizzare Adventure
How did you incorporate the 'girly' theme into your game?
I focused a lot on the aesthetic with pretty colors, rainbows, but also some other styles that I tried bringing out the feminine side in.

the drawn / pixel art juxtaposition is FANTASTIC, i know for a fact i would be able to jam with it a bit more with some music - following to see where this goes & i hope you're feeling better!

Clothed TogetherThe story is compelling and the visuals are awesome! I like the cross between hand-drawn and pixel art. I'm sorry to hear that you were sick during the jam and I hope that you can continue working on this soon!

Clothed TogetherI love the hand-drawn CGs in between the gameplay—I'm glad I was able to see them better in the artbook with the game install :)

To The Moon and BackThis is a nice concept, it'll be neat to see what you're able to do with it once you're feeling better! This might be a resolution issue, but I found the text difficult to read on my monitor :)

Fashion For DragonsI loved the hand-drawn(?) art and storytelling. I noticed that the score didn't really matter though as the story would still progress even if you got fewer diamonds (looking at u Gangst4r). Still impressive amount of work for the time available. Nice job!

Bake Me BlushLOVED the Jojo inspiration here, it gives everything a really cheeky, fun feeling. Sorry to hear that you were under the weather while making this--hope you're feeling a little better now--really impressed with the progress you've made on this. Can't wait to see the music come together with these rad visuals!

PinholeIt's a great game and I really loved the arts. However, I think you should put background music, as it is a game about dancing. I believe you'll improve it later, but the game is still funny anyway.

Sun and Moon DefendersOh wow those are really good drawings! I remember seeing in your discord post that you didn't have enough time to flesh things out -- I really hope you decide to keep working on this game, I would love to see the final product. The little dance and "coin" collection was pretty fun, and I can see that growing into a standalone game of its own!

Yin and YarnThank you, Alvin! I really appreciate you saying so! I definitely plan to do more with it eventually, hopefully some time when I get my health back in order. But tbh my plates are always spinning and it's hard to stay focused on one idea for very long lol. It's a bit of a chaotic routine for me to go back and forth between projects.
