Really charming game, it was quite satisfying to make the door and a really creative take on the theme. I was already sold but then noticed you could actually open the door and it responds to your decoration, honestly blew my mind. Amazing work!

How does your game fit the theme?
You see whats behind a door before it gets made, you decore it and can even open it to see what would be "your life" (in a no serious way). I would love to see the doors you make!
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code and did all the art from scratch (flowers by Simpy). The audio is from internet and modified to fit my game. (The 4 last images are not mine)

In reality opening the door was the afterthought. I wanted to make what’s behind the door as what’s behind A door, like “what’s the life of a door” or “how it’s made” episode kind of thing, maybe that didn’t go throught properly^^’ thanks for the comment <3

Heeey thanks for playing and im glad you liked it!! :3 I see you are a Linux user, the game works well for you?
That's probably one of the most cosy games of that jam. I just want to play this during some winter night while drinking some hot cocoa right next to a lit fireplace.
The idea behind this game is awesome ^^. The introduction where you craft your door is a really nice touch!
I'm usually not a huge fan of "decoration/dress-up games" because they usually lack a purpose, a "end goal" other that "make pretty things". So the concept of seeing where you land based on the decoration really got me ^^! I spent a little bit of time testing the different possibilities (place one item, open the door, repeat =p), and it was really fun, you perfectly respect the theme ^^!
A couple of nitpicks however: I would love to be able to remove elements (and edit those who are in place), but I can understand why it's a bit too much to ask for a 7 days jam ^^').
Finally, I stopped messing up with the door opening and I did this door, playing with overlapping items ^^:
And you know what? Even if I said that the reason you got me was the "behind the door" thing, I don't know what is behind this one. I placed the last item, felt happy about it, took a screenshot and closed the game, without thinking a single second about opening it. I guess I was wrong, and the fun was in decorating the door after all =).
Thanks for playing and the feedback!!! I thought about the deleting items thing and for exemple fliping the items, but when that came to my mind it was too late (and i was too tired too>.<)
Thats a really beautiful door btw, good use of the overlaping!:O The main point is decorating the door, opening it is just a little plus, im glad i could make you feel happy about decorating it, withouth thinking whats in it :3
