What an underrated gem! Genuinely don't think anything I've had any of the experiences so far quite have this strange nostalgic coziness that this game has. Something about the watercolour art and transitions combined with a sort-of "Impossible Quiz by way of Warioware" style puzzles just had me really invested in a sort-of calm, relaxed fashion.

Really really enjoyed this one. Such a fantastic entry.

Lovely artstyle, and creative 2010s mobile game-style idea! I wonder if some of the physics were accidentally tied to framerate, as things like the russian dolls and basketballs were a bit difficult to drag. I had fun with it though, nice entry :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much ! I totally get the 2010 vibe haha, we wanted the dolls to be heavy to light for the player to spend more time and effort on it, for the basketball I'm not sure tho, but I appreciate your review ! Im glad you liked it

I was loving the game until the leaves absolutely ragebaited the shit out of me

I'm still mad I clean the leaves with a painfully small rake yet you still got some more !

Beautiful artwork though.

Developer(+1)

BAHHAAHAHA noooo, yeah apparently this level is the worst, but it's on of the last one at least, but the real thing is that if you just pick up 5 leafs then the wind helps you and removes everything, try it ! because i think you'll love the bonus level haha, thank you for enjoying and playing our game !!

Submitted(+1)

Bro I did the leaves puzzle again because you told me too, I do that awful raking, pick up five leaves, then the wind doesn't effin show up !!!!!

T_T

My brother in Christ this game is bad for my sanity

Developer (1 edit)

NOOOOO PLEASE COME BACK, I FUMBLED IT'S 10 (or 8) LEAAVES BUT I SWEAR YOU WON'T REGRET IT (it's the last level so you really don't miss anything but yeah try the bonus level it's fun), I'M SO SO TERRIBLY SORRYYY

Submitted

No I'm not touching a single leaf again man

Love the hand drawn style and the paper crumple transitions. The mini games are fun! though a couple might look confusing at first. The bonus level being a kind of rage bait game with all the captchas and that windows update screen was funny, cleared it with ~8 sec to spare. Overall, great work!

Developer

okkkk fine i won’t clean out the leaves i started out too good then i was raged by the basketballs the colliders are not big enough i had to exactly click in the center of the ball then i went out so good the art is amazing the game is inasnely creative and then the birthday cake came in and i had no idea the 1 was the cherry there was so many one intems in the scene then i went to the wind and i was frustrated by mob and then you want me to pick it up! one by one by hand!! nope sir i couldn’t my patience won’t allow me XD but one last comment the bonus level about submitting your game was amazing completly true and oddly satisfying to submit your game overall this was soo nice (except the leaf part ughhh)

Developer(+1)

woooow hahaha what a comment !

I mean... yes sorry we ragebaited you haha, it's like a game you show your siblings to watch them rage pfahaha, but thank you very much for playing the game !! You still made it to the end, yeah the leaf one you were supposed to only pick up 5 leaves and then the wind helps you haha, and the submitting you game level is clearly the best hahaa, thank you very much !!!

this game is just insanely creative! i absolutely adore this hand-drawn art style where everything has that slight wobbly look and paper feel - it gives the whole project so much personality and charm.

the variety in the mini-games is mind-blowing, and the puzzles are on such a great level. they aren't just mindless clicking - you actually have to stop, think, and put in some real effort to figure things out, which makes solving them so satisfying.

this was honestly an incredible experience from start to finish, easily one of the highlights of the jam for me. thanks so much to the devs for putting so much passion and work into such a wonderful game!

Developer

Love this! It really has a great style that makes it distinct among minigame games!

Developer

Thanks a lot for th comment  Glad you enjoyed the game :))

I really like the artstyle and it is polished quite nicely, but I really disliked some of the levels it already sort of ragebaited me when I had to use the rake and when I thought it was finally over I had to pick it up with the hands? I quit at that level. the math puzzle would have been quite nice, but I don't think there was any indication, that we were supposed to have it count down, I thought you were supposed to make it zero and thus have all equations be zero, not have them count down. Apart from some levels having too little hints not requiring you to use the hints it was quite an interesting and visually nice looking game.

Developer

Hello ! Thank you a lot for your very thoughtful and honest comment ! 

It's true that we needed to rush some levels and for the math one it's not that clear even tho we tried to do the green and red numbers but yeah, also for the leaves we shoud've made it differently but the point is for you to pick up only 5 leaves and then the wind removes them automatically haha, sort of a ragebait level, i hope you'll still try the bonus level ! it's really funny

Thanks a lot and have a nice day, can't wait to play your game :)))

Very pretty, liked the presentation of the theme even if some of the puzzles were a little too abstract then I am ready for this early in the morning.

Developer

Hhahahaha yeah sorry for that but i hope you still had fun ! thanks for the comment :)))
