Daaaamn this one is good! Really creative and super relaxing to play, amazing job!

Not a critical bug, but when I tried to pass to the next level, phone would play but the image would be freeze for like 5 seconds before it would show the phone and let me click on it.

Developer

First time we hear of it, but thanks! Glad you liked it :)

Really fun! I love this take on loop! a reset button could've been nice (at least I didn't see one), but other that that, great!

Developer

Good idea, thanks!

It seems like the music evolves along the level's progress. I like it! =D I didn't have the patience to complete all the levels though. Despite the comfy mood of the game, I find the experience a bit stressful. x) I got mixed up in all the controls, was always waiting for the right color, getting annoyed when I missed it. When I was trying to play strategically I were just making a lot of mistakes, and when I tried not to think about it it felt like I was just waiting for a window that I shouldn't miss. It's not that I disliked the game though, but rather than it grew tiresome once the longer levels were introduce. The art is lovely too, even though it's mostly a static background. Overall I prefer to remember the short but sweet experience I had in the first to levels. Congrats for making this game!

Developer

Exactly, the music gets more intricate with each line (up to 8), thanks for playing!

A meditative and very enjoyable game, I enjoyed playing all the levels!

I absolutely adored the game, there should be more crochet games. The artwork was adorable and fit the game perfectly!

On another note for some reason I stopped progressing after the third level :c 

Developer

Thank you very much! I think your progression issue is due to this known bug:

Make sure to wait for the entire patchwork to fully display at the end of each level to ensure your progress is saved. If you exit the level too quickly, you may have to play the level again :( Apologies and have fun!

I hope that gets you unstuck! Sorry you experienced this issue <3

I loved this so much!!! I love the idea of each family member having a colour and grandma staying in the loop on everyones lives and making little designs about them! This is who I want to be when I grow up.

I was also hoping to come up with a game idea about the loops in knitting (crochet is witchcraft to me) but I couldn't think of anything that I would be able to code haha.  

I like that there was no rush and no punishment for doing something wrong, just undo a wrong stitch, wait until the correct colour comes up, remember to start a new line. It felt so relaxed and calm while still having complicated-ish mechanics, just like knitting in real life (again, I do not know how to crochet).

Banger.

Thank you so much! Grandma is very touched by your comment, and her color for you is a light green.

Submitted(+2)

Very nice game! Loved the artwork and that the family stories bring new crochet ideas for Grandma!

Developer

Yes, and each family member has its own color. Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+2)

adore the artwork and the theme of this game! Very fun and relaxing. Is there a way to restart a level before you finish a quilt? Either way, fantastic work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! Unfortunately not, we had to forego an actual pause menu for lack of time :') Maybe post-jam!

I wasn't sure how to play at first, but once I got the hang of it, I really loved the game! The art and music are both fantastic!d(゚∀゚d)

Thank you very much <3

The game has an interesting concept

Cute idea, crochet needs more video game coverage!
I couldn't use right click to fix a mistake, but maybe it was just a browser bug.

Developer

This is weird, the only thing I can tell you is that you can't correct a mistake on another line than the one you're working on, but other than that it's the first time we hear about this bug...

Super cute game! Love the yarn and crochet theme, very creative way to make it into a game! Art and music/sfx is very well done and nostalgic!

Developer

Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed it <3

With this game I understood I have not the patience to be a grandma doing crochet, and my crochet would be full of errors !!

The ambiance is really well done, and the little adition at each crochet really welcomed. I like the fact that we make mistake by trying to be the quickest possible while nothing prevent me to just take my time and do the crochet slowly but correctly.
Good job !

Developer

Thank you, it IS a game about patience. Grandma Augusta says that waiting is living, if instead of waiting "for" your waiting "with"...
