It's very different from the other jam entries and it really stands out.  Bold choice!  I like the transitioning from story to game play and the transition effect too.

This is a goood short visual story..I like it. .I had a hard time reading the text and wish it was more readable and darker.

Overall though, it's good

Submitted

It's a cute game! The graphics reminded me of the storybooks my dad would usually buy and bring us home when he gets back abroad, so that's some nastalgic points for you lol!

The story was nice, and your choice of music fits so well too! 

Submitted

Nice story, I like the dialog system and the music is so relaxing well done.

I suggest to make the text darker for easy readability or the background.

Submitted

Really good storytelling and nice adaptation. It's a short game which keeps you attached to the story and makes you want to read further.

Great work. The game feels like  reading a story book. The graphics are nice, only the cursive font is a little bit difficult to read.

I did add a kind of last minute "font change" option in the main menu, but I really should have made it more clear, or made the non-cursive option the default one. Thank you for playing my game!

Developer

in the title screen, there is a button which lets you switch font. that should work! I maybe should have made it a bit more obvious though :)

Submitted

The window size is pretty small in the HTML version. Makes it difficult to read the cursive. I'm not familiar with le petit prince, but this was fun. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I did think about making fullscreen, but I wasn't sure how exactly given that I only found out about the HTML5 exporting at the last possible second :)

Developer

Oh... I could change itch.io embed viewport size... ok, window in the browser version should now be bigger, if you would like to be able to actually read it :)

Submitted

The art and music are pleasing to the eye and ear.  The story seems interesting too, but unfortunately I can't read the small cursive font. I'd really like to see a post jam version where the font can be changed to a large plain sanserif font.

Thanks! That font is a bit knider on the eyes.

I expected a cute little story and was not disappointed.

Submitted

Nicely presented and well written :)

I would suggest adding fullscreen to the html5 version as I couldn't really read the text. I downloaded the linux executable (which also requires the pck file) to play the game. The music fits really well. Thanks for making :)

Making it fullscreen should be an option on the itch editing page. If the game window can be resized in the downloadable versions, it should work perfectly in HTML5 fullscreen after a box check :)

(edit: you can also give it a manual size, which is what I ended up doing, because my game doesn't look as good fullscreen :) )

Submitted

Really nice Le Petit Prince fan game. But I will admit that the fonts are rather hard to read.

Submitted

Really cute! Got me interested to know what happens to the sheep. I like that you can change the fonts too. A good call because the default one seems a lil hard to read.

I've never really read the book so I have no context to who these characters are but despite that the story you chose to tell is very easy to follow. 

Submitted

A lovely game with a very sweet narrative!  It was neat be able to switch font at the beginning. I did wish the text were a little bigger or a little darker, feels like I wasn't able to read every word even though I was squinting my eyes like crazy.

Interesting homage, I enjoyed it. Would like to be able to change text's speed, but I guess taking the time to breath is part of the experience ;)

I quite like the book, so I was expecting a game where you mostly go to other planets and just talk to different people for a while. I was surprised by the direction this went. It does seem a bit overwhelming to take care of all the trees and volcanoes at first until you settle into a rhythm, which I think is intended. Most importantly, I loved the sort of melancholy hopefullness of the narrative and the music certainly amplified that. Also, the sheep is a good sheep.
