This was a very fun entry! As soon as I was greeted by giant wolf boobas to the tune of epic medieval music in the menu, I knew I was in for a ride!
The art is very cute. While it's easy to recognize the art style as the same one in Alones, I generally liked this one more in the art department: not sure why, but I guess Wacky must be growing as an artist!
The comedy is hilarious and the characters and story are very enjoyable. I did find the "Expand" bracelet a bit on the nose, especially with some of the interpretations given: while most of them would make sense as interpretations for the jam theme, I'm not sure why anyone in the story would think that the bracelet has anything to do with expanding the wolf population, for example. XD But the final interpretation ties in with the festival quite nicely.
While the story is very enjoyable, the prose does suffer a bit from Wacky's trademark unusual sentence constructions and ESL-isms, but the don't hurt the experience. As far as the story structure goes, while I thought the beginning and ending were very solid, I did find the middle part, the start of the incomplete 9-day structure, a bit more tedious. I guess this is my word of caution considering Wacky is considering expanding (eh) the story after the jam ends.
All in all, I had a lot of fun! I wanna fuck Tino so bad
