How does your game fit the Magical Girl genre?
The main character of our game is Mayu, a young girl who uses her water-based magical powers to wash laundry (not represented in game) but also enter into a space representing people’s hearts/minds. That space is shown as being underwater, with negative thoughts polluting that space. In the mind of the person, she can neutralize the bad thoughts with her power, liberating the person of the weight they have on their heart. Of course, before using her powers Mayu has to transform into her magical girl outfit. She also has a cute mascot with her, befitting a magical girl.
Which theme(s) do you pick?
We chose the “Freedom Dive” theme.
How does your game fit those theme(s)?
The magical girl’s powers are originally water-based, but during the game, she manages to unlock a new potential and figuratively dive into her girlfriend’s heart to free her of the weight of all the negative and intrusive thoughts she has. The “heart dive” she does becomes a “freedom dive”, liberating her girlfriend from the depressing thoughts.
If you follow any of the optional challenges, elaborate as you like.
The mascot of the magical girl is a cute flying washing machine. As the magical girl’s powers are water-based and she can wash laundry with them, her mascot also turned into a washing machine.
Were the assets for your game made during the jam? Elaborate as you see fit.
Except for the music tracks, which were not made by us but have been downloaded from copyright-free sources, all assets were made during the jam.

Really cute game! Loved the artwork and story :) I was also impressed with just how much sweet potato dialogue there was. (I did a second run where I tried clicking on all sorts of things hehe)
Awesome work!
This was really wholesome and charming! Amazing work!
