How does your game meet GBJam's theme?
Dating sim with a mix of japanese and brazilian folklore, and a bit of suspense and supernatural themes. We used the idea of spooky creatures of our folklores and gave our own twist in their legends.

This game is fully playable on hardware as well! (GBC and any VC/Emu,)

Very well made visuals that keep to the colour palette and Gameboy style. The audio is also well done and fits into the game nicely. I liked that the 'people' in the world past the bridge aren't really people, which fits the spooky theme well.

Solid game 👍

Really like the use of the folklore/yokai characters as the basis instead of the traditional horror movie monsters. The art is stupendous!

Developer

I'm glad you liked it! As soon as me and my friend saw the theme, we knew we had to go by this route! 

Thank you so much!! ❤️
