Nice game! I like the visuals and the variety of gameplay offerings. The Music & SFX are good overall, but the dialogue SFX could be toned down a bit.

That's a pretty nice and cute game, I like it's handmaid, and yay \o/ : minigames ! Nice execution, it's just a bit slow, especially when wandering in the town. Good job overall

Very impressive! The game already has solid gameplay and feels surprisingly polished. The UI and interactions are high-quality, and everything feels smooth and well put together. Great work! :D

Very polished and cute game! got stuck in the traffic part in day 2 like the other comment but it worked normally after reloading.

Game is disgustingly wholesome!

Overall very high quality, assets, minigames, tone, execution, the whole lot!

Only gripe i had that I -like Terance- am also bad at the games T-T

I think Meemaw would be a little less cavalier about dodging traffic if she wasn't secretly indestructible.

You packed a lot of extra games into the main game, very impressive! I thought every day would be a variation on the same thing (like a another level in the maze game for Terance, rather than an entirely new thing.) I was only half right! I'm pretty sure I'm worse at math than Sophia... but at least I know how to use Unity. And I have a sneaking suspicion Annabelle is using me to do her chores.

There is a glitch caused by the watering flower game, where from that point onward the sound of the water being poured is playing nonstop.

The visuals are nice, the music is nice, the characters are nice. Everything is exceedingly nice. (I thought Melvin would give me a cake, though...)

WOW, that is really impressive! The amount of content, dialogues, mini-games, and attention to detail are all top-notch.

I enjoyed everything about the game: the dialogue, the mini-games, the atmosphere, and the city itself. Honestly, I wanted to move to that town myself by the end of it.

You're an incredible developer. Keep it up!

I enjoyed the game since when meemaw kidnapped me. I helped her cross the street (I did brake a couple of bones) and then I accidentally clicked space again between her and the cabin next to her. The game got stuck in a loop where a conversation would start with meemaw and for every sentence I could hear another the sound twice, as if another sentence was going off at the same time. The screen would also darken and go back to normal during the conversation. At the end of the conversation, when skipping the last sentence, the conversation would start over. 
Other than that I would have limited the movement in the maze in order to prevent the character from getting stuck on corners and make the mini game feel smoother. I liked how you integrated the mini game by the way. Very good entry

Nice Game! I like how you put multiple games into one game! Kind of reminded me of Until Then :)

This game was so cute! I loved the little romance storyline, the meta humor, and the interactions with various objects (including the GameDevTv ad lol). It would be nice to have the option to skip the minigames if you just care about the storyline.

Solid entry. Thanks.

Nice job on this game, it's fun and very well polished. All the different activities are very well done. Each different minigame is very completable, making the task of getting through the days more manageable. Great game.

I only had time to play the first day unfortunately, but the gameplay is solid and the game looks polished as well. Impressive for a 10 days project.

Submitted(+1)

A very good entry! I liked the pixel art and the theme use. It is impressive you were able to make so much content in 10 days. Excellent work!

Submitted(+1)

You have done an extensive work on this for a jam. Congrats on the entry!

Submitted(+1)

Really cool to combine narration and mini games. Mini games in games is double the mechanics and design, so good job on that!

Submitted(+1)

Well done with the variety of mini-games! That is a massive amount of work for a solo developer to pull off in such a short time. Great job on the scope and execution!

Submitted(+1)

There is a lot of content in the game! I was not expecting the variety in mini-games!

The story is a little flat, but that is totally fine for such a short game. Good stuff!

I like the variety in the minigames, the dialogue was very well written, and the pixel art style was really well done and fit the game’s vibe. I’d say the minigames in general could be improved a bit so they’re a little more engaging, they generally felt a bit slow to me, but I think the bases were good they just need a little more complexity and a bit faster pacing.
