good game not perfect for who don’t speak English. But i like it

Submitted(+1)

simple and charming story ^^ I don't understand why I won so easily though, I was doing like 5 times more damage - even though I couldn't get the ingredients correctly hehe

Developer

Yah, it still needs balance lol, The ending was kinda rushed
Thank you so much for playing and giving me feedbacks!

Good visual novel, excellent graphics. Nice interpretation of the theme. :)

Developer

Thank you so much!

I thought this game was super cute! I failed to grow the plant correctly, and was disappointed that I never got another chance to try even though I chose to plant herbs multiple days after. I don't know if there are choices that make it so Auren will help you with the potions, but alas Auren snubbed me. 😢 One small bug I noticed: when you ask Auren to help you, the next line of text says "You ask Lynn to help you." Anyway, I had fun and now I want to make a visual novel. 😂 Great job!

Aw... I tried to give the player another chance for growing the plant, but it didn't work and I was losing my mind XDD
So I just gave up on it 😭
I am glad you enjoyed tho! thanks for the feedbacks >w<

Wow, it's incredible that you actually submitted a full game, well done. The artwork was endearing and with very few points to spend each week, the decisions seemed weighty. The writing was cute and matched the artwork. Good job :)

Developer

Thank you so much for playing !

The art is beautiful in this game! This was a unique type of game for a game jam. Nicely done!

Developer

Thank youu ! I am glad you like it

Artstyle was on point, good job on the entry!

Developer(+1)

Thank youu ! >u<

Submitted(+1)

This was a nice little story! I'd be stoked to see you flesh this out more! I liked the characters a lot

Developer(+1)

Aww, it makes me so happy to know that you liked them!

Submitted(+1)

Lovely art and cute story ! It reminded my of the story of these isekai animes where people reincarnate and go to the magic academy. I liked the fact that you had to remember how to grow your plant *which I didn't so mine didn't lmao*. But I won the tournament ! 

Great work overall !

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!!
And yes, I really enjoy those animes! XDDD

Submitted(+1)

They are my favorite as well hahaha. I watched them all XD

Submitted(+1)

It's more of a VN than anything which is pretty unique for game jams. I like the story.

Developer

Thanks a lot ! I am glad you like it

Submitted(+1)

Not much action, but good graphics, nice storyline and... I actually won. Hurrah!

Developer

Thank you for playing ! and I am glad you enjoyed your time >u<

Submitted(+1)

The art is really nice, this is a very unique speen on the unseen theme that I don't think i've actually seen people do yet.

Developer

Thank you so much!! I'm still not very good at coding, so I decided to take a simpler approach to the theme

Submitted(+1)

I really love the artwork for this game, and the story was very nice! Great work!

Developer

Thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoyed both the art and the story  😭

Submitted(+1)

I love the art so much, it’s adorable. and the game it’s self is pretty straight forward without just feeling like a wall of text. I would have loved to see options for changing text size but otherwise very nicely done

Developer

Thank you so much, that means a lot to me! I really appreciate the feedback about text size too

Submitted(+1)

Saw your character drawing process on Discord and really wanted to check out your game! I was not disappointed!

The art on this project was awesome. I really liked the character design and the UI/UX elements. Beautifully crafted. There was also a surprisingly copious amount of writing done! Must not have been an easy feat for a jam of 9 days with a small team. 

I too completely wrecked poor Auren and Lynn in the duel. They must've thought that i was Harry Potter in disguise or something.

Its a really impressive entry! You should feel very proud of yourself. I don't usually play visual novel games, but I really enjoyed the world building on this. I hope you continue building on the world of Belveren.

Developer

Thank you so so much for this wonderful comment. I honestly didn't think my game would receive this much love 😭 but I'm really happy that I gave up on my social life and  dedicated my soul to making it, lol XD

As you mentioned, the writing was the hardest part. I'm not a writer... I couldn't force myself to write something under such a tight deadline and still make it turn out as good as I do with my art. It still lacks a lot in my opinion, but I'm glad you liked it!

LMAO, The last fight was rushed and unbalanced, so you must've felt overpowered 😭😭

Thank you again for playing my game and showing it so much love!! I'll definitely try to work a little more on it

Submitted(+1)

I really like the art and music! What an interesting take on the theme <3

Developer

Thanks a lot !! I am glad you liked them

Submitted(+1)

A cute game, an interesting concept and amazing art! I don't really understand how the fights work, I just studied a bit and suddenly I'm doing like 80 damage and taking 10, but that wasn't the main point, and just having these is already way above what I expected. Very good!

Developer

I agree, the fight is unbalanced 😭
Thank you so much for playing and giving me a feedback!

I managed to win in the championship. I had fun playing and it was a good take on the theme. Also good job on the art!

Developer

Thank you so much!! I am glad that you had fun >u<

Submitted(+1)

That's a great take on the the theme and it's an interesting showcase for a visual novel type of game in Godot. The art is very nice, I'm impressed you did all this solo in nine days. I felt like there were a few little quirks with the audio stopping at some point and sometimes the actions didn't really seem to do anything. But overall, solid game and amazing work!

Developer

I am really grateful for your comment! Thank  you so much for playing and giving me feedbacks >u<

I accidentally missed the duel lol but still got a good ending(?) I think 

Super cute art, really liked the UI for the tasks

Developer(+1)

Lol XDD
At least you got a good ending 
Thank you for playing !!
