Theme explanation
The game appears to be a cute dating with minigames, but the more the story progresses, the more horrifying it gets, revealing its horror layer. But even when the most obvious horror is displayed, the vibe through the music and appearance still stays light-hearted and cute, as if nothing weird is happening.

Making a DS game is a really cool idea. The game looks really good and the minigames are pretty cool. I'm a slow reader so i failed some minigames on the first try so it would have been cool to be able to retry them without having to play through the whole game again, but maybe it was supposed to feel a bit like wario ware, at least that's the vibe i got from the games. The only game i was never able to beat was the cutting game and I'm not really sure how to do it since the counter says three lines but i can only see two.
Anyway the game is great and really feels like a DS game.
Cute game ! Amazing that you did a game on DS for a jam ! I would have loved to test it on DS. Amazing work, cute mini-games, cute story. Well done !
Thank you so much! <3
Never played a DS jam game before, how cool! I ended up playing on my drawing tablet :D I like the idea of the horror elements underneath the cutesy exterior, I would have liked to see a bit more build up to that.
Ah how fun! :D A drawing tablet seems quite fitting for that ^^
Thank you!~ We are trying to still finish it and would definitely build the horror up more :)
Making a ds game seems like a big task, and the girl´s portrait is pretty, you can see it had some effort.
Thank you! <3 Yess, it definitely is a bit more complicated but also a fun challenge :D
a DS game, that's ambitious! the portrait art is really nice, shame the minigames are still placeholder sometimes!
i found the one minigame of... "doing the deed" and cleaning up the evidence really funny for how sudden it was LOL especially with the "oh time for our cutesy date" after that haha
Yea, it was abit more than I could chew, but I took it as a challenge but sadly couldn't finish. I'll make this week an update to it, with all the Assets and Gamemodes done.
What a cute concept!
Thank you! <3
I have to applaud making a Nintendo DS game during the jam! It feels a little barebones though, it goes all over the place and most minigames are placeholders and those that are more complete don't really feel very fun to play. Again, I have to admire creating a console game though!
Thank you! :D Yeahh we are definitely aware of that, we couldn't get to finish it in time after all xd We still decided to upload it anyway ^^ And we'll finish it the following days after the game jam :)
