Ranked from 8 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

Creative Vision / Rationale / How Did You Incorporate the Theme
"Apple's Island" is a brief, pleasant escape into a sunny world that is all about easy pleasures and good interpersonal touch. It's a gentle, bite-sized experience designed to wrap up on an up note.

Rationale:
We set out to create a game that celebrates simple, nice things, well-fitted to a game jam environment. The adorable fruit theme subtly references nature's bounty and gift spirit.

The Theme:
Generosity is the essence of the game, with the players as Apple mainly assisting island inhabitants through quests, sharing resources, and providing time. These acts of selflessness are the core of the gameplay, creating a fulfilling sense of contribution to the community.

Super cute game! I really enjoyed it! I'm glad this was one of the last games I played for this jam. Basically everything that could have been said has already been said, but I love the art style and especially the music. It felt so raw and organic and I really liked it. I unfortunately wasn't able to figure out how to fish or where to go, so i think more direction/description in the menu would have helped a lot especially with the sheer amount of quests. There were also some visual glitches with the dust particles appearing to the right of Apple and with the coins. But despite these small issues I had a good time. Cute game!

This game was so much fun!! The artstyle is simple but in a very endearing way. Really liked the animations and the voices were so funny. I just really enjoyed the dialogues as well. Very fun!!

Apple’s footsteps have wandered westward approximately ten feet on startup, causing an offset in currency and wildlife disturbed from trees. The tasks are plentiful… and this “unemployed” “Apple” seems completely unphased. Marvelous.
