I’ve been wanting to play this since you posted on Discord and I finally have time to do so!!! This is so late, I’m sorry >.< I love the UI and scene transitions, your page is so charming, the use of colors amazing, and the silhouette characters are nicely drawn. The title card for each chapter is simple and effective (page turning SFX is nice), it’s like playing a picture book. I hope more comments and downloads will help you out of itch.io’s false positive quarantine.
There are crashes I suspect is caused by leftover code from a heavily skinned template. You may also want to give proofreading another go when you have time, but I can tell how much heart goes into this. The first panorama of The Candytown is so cute (I’m kinda hoping it would stop scrolling when I talk with Edelweiss, though. Talking with a scrolling background gives me nausea, I’m sorry!
I like the plot. It has potentials and I’m sure it’ll be very nice when the game gets all polished up (and the pesky warning goes away). Congrats for such a beautiful entry!
Some bugs will be fixed in the next update:
Really pretty game, it's like a candy wonderland! There's a surprising amount of plot in a game jam entry, and I can't wait for the next update!
Thank you for the comment and for playing our game! We worked hard in the last week to make it on time, but we couldn’t finish some endings, which will be added in the next update!
Unfortunately, you had the warning issue, but the game itself is fantastic! The UI and artwork are stunning. It’s truly impressive how you managed to create a 20k-word story in such a short time. The work you’ve accomplished in just a month is remarkable!
Also, I just wanted to mention that the backlog UI design looks truly amazing. The idea is really cool!
Thank you for playing our game and for your comment. We really appreciate that you liked it!
quite a interesting setting and concept but some chapters are longer than i expected. the emoticons are cute, like the little small creatures tho and edelweiss, a bit sad that not all endings of her are available yet. but when i downloaded the game, this warning pops out.
Thank you for trying our game and yes, we’ve been informed by other players that they see this warning as well. Unfortunately, we couldn’t do much about it as we’ve already contacted itch.io support but haven’t received a reply yet. We don’t know how long it will take for them to review our page and remove the warning, so we just hope they can do it before the jam is over.
okay, good luck, wishing you the best of luck with the review process!
