One of my favorites of the jam! The idea and the gameplay is really fun, I had a tiny bit of struggle to find the animals but that could be only a me issue. I think you accomplished a lot in just 3 days

Pick'n CarrotsI absolutely love the vibe, the cute art style, the cozy music, the little critters and some really nice personalities on the charcters all blend so well! I do wish there were more things to do a little cuz I can definitely see this being a lot bigger of an adventure but I love what you've presented so far!

GardenSurvivorsI snapped the red kite on my second try! The way the mole pops out is cute! I think it would be great if the game showed more hints at the edges of photo zones, because I had a little bit hard time triggering the camera view. But it's only a very minor problem. The idea of this game is really cool. For a 3-day jam, your team really got a lot done! Congrats!

GreenFingersBrownFingerspretty good game. had a lot of fun exploring the area and taking pictures of spring animals, even caught the red kite which took me a while in the meadows. wished the game was clearer about when can you take pictures though. had to go through a lot of trial and error to know it activates while you're moving. also wished they were music when you're taking a picture because without it it just brings a very empty tone/feeling. even though the graphics were not that great, it's also very charming in a way. also how did you guys end up using microsoft paint when you got krita and asesprite? and one thing I really wish is being able to see my album full because when you complete it it immediately teleports you to the end without giving you a chance to see your hard work. please, I want to see my red kite photo :(
overall I had a good time and it was very cozy, definitely 5 stars for cozy spring vibes

Butterfly BethWell done for getting the red kite! Also thank you for the very constructive feedback - thankfully none of the points you've raised are a surprise and they are all things we ran out of time to address during the jam but are going to improve post-jam.
Paint I find to be a very useful tool for super-quick, mid-discussion illustration to help you storyboard and explain your ideas with your co-developers; I would rarely use it to produce an asset for the game.
As mentioned above, we will be putting in an album-review moment before the game end triggers, but if you really want to get a picture of the red kite to see, you could go back and do the meadows first (post-pickups of course). Feel free to share the screen shot in a comment if you do, we'd love to see it!
you make a good point that paint is very useful to sketch due to its non-heavy nature due to how small the program is (and I admit I thought some of the assets were made with paint, sorry). and I want to suggest a popup that tells the player to go back to grandpa cause I would love to end the game by going back to grandpa's house because you start by going out from grandpa's house
Very cozy game! I love the fact that you can find upgrades for the camera. Would have loved an anti-blur upgrade, too. :D Love the various biomes, whre you can find different animals. Overall I had fun playing it & the music made it even cozier. :)

Professor PapillonExcellent! Thank you for the kind review ^_^ I will pass the compliments to our musician ^^.
The blur is 100% because Ken is only 5 so he's not very good at focusing the lens on some creatures 😛 (definitely not an artifact of godot sub-viewers that we couldnt fix in the timr available). If we do a sequel (Flutterby Shutter - Ken's Teenage Years) I'm sure he'll be far more adept with focus by then 😅
Thanks again <3
Very cool mechanic with the pictures. But sad that some of them turned out blurry.

One Favor At a TimeLovely and really fun experience! Couldn't find that pesky red kite though! (Although English is not my first language, so I thought I was looking for an ACTUAL red kite like the toy LOL) One of my favorites in the entire jam :)

Bubble Bun'sSuch a lovely story, i bet it was someone's life experience or a dream. Nice art work and music. I have completed it, ending is quite funny, i guess we all did that in some way)

Game of Spring At 64.5 NI like the slow calm music of the intro, very peaceful. The premise is cute hehe. I like the walking sound effect. I was a bit confused why certain areas were photography spots (indicator was not clear to me?) which was a bit hard for me to figure out where I hadn’t checked yet. The concept of the camera was executed well and I enjoyed going around collecting photos! I liked the animals doing funny behaviors for the shot those were super cute hehe. Sadly I couldn’t seem to find the deer despite going around the whole area like 4 times. The game has cozy atmosphere and pleasant music. Overall great job!
