A few things I was trying to achieve in Bitsy for this game...
Create a story game that flowed in a way that made sense.
Write shorter text to get the story across.
Write a folk tale/fable.
Create tiles that looked like mistletoe, holly, pine needles in 8x8 monochrome.
Use colour schemes in the game to play a part in the story.
Try out the new dialog system.
Use collectable items in there somewhere... just to test them out.
Make the game as a bit of a nod to Ultimate games like Sabre Wulf & Atic Atac.
Well, that was my aim anyway!
I also wanted to finish making this game, as I've failed to do that in so many recent jams. I'm happy with what I created in about 12 hours.
