Overall, I really enjoyed Twin Town Trouble! I love that it is a cozy game that is not just another copycat of Stardew. The characters are absolutely adorable, and I love that you can pick up the masks to have additional characters, so you can have them doing different actions at the same time. The sound effects were very fitting for the game actions. Also loved that the fishing depleted the fish and they didn't just fully refill after one night.
I did like the background music, though it was very quiet, so I could only hear it by really cranking up the volume. The instructions could maybe use a bit of a tweak, as it wasn't clear that I didn't have to keep using the spacebar to do actions, but just stand there and let the character work.
The actions were also very slow, to the point that it felt like I was spending too long doing nothing while waiting for something to finish.
I look forwarding to the game progressing more and hopefully being a desktop game in the future with save options and all :)

Itās super useful to see the video when you are playtesting the game!
- Yeah, I will add volume controls for the music, to the to do list.
- Also, I will look into a windows version, although the saving works atm in the web version.
- The speed of mining is a tricky balance, you are not the first one to mention it. I will see if thereās some trade off!
Thank you for testing the game!
