I absolutely just ADORE this game. First itch io game I've bought, and I'm loving it. It looks beautiful on my Gameboy colour, I bought the game especially for it after playing a couple minutes on web. I simply love picross and have always wanted more games that have an adventure aspect with the puzzle element, and this just scratches that itch. The puzzles are surprisingly difficult at times but I welcome that as I find some picross to be too easy, I've almost finished the whole 3DS picross game lineup. I'm unfortunately stuck on the chest in the bucket outside the dev house, even used a nonogram solver but it didn't seem to do it correctly so I'm kind of at a loss...

But anyways, I love this! It's inspired me to think about my own dream picross type game, maybe a city builder. And I read the story in the dev house, I'd love to see the taiyaki building itself.

I really appreciate your support and your very thoughtful comment!! And I'm so glad if my game inspires other people to make cool puzzle games!

As for the chest in the bucket: if you'd like, I can give you the solution. Otherwise, you can post a screenshot of where you got stuck and I (or someone else here) can probably help find your next move. :)

Unfortunately, the taiyaki building I made in that game is from a modded save from a long time ago, so it doesn't look right anymore because I don't have the same set of mods. That's part of the reason I made this game--to preserve the original text, lol :D

I finally got the puzzle! I've been progressing more and wow this game is just so full of content. Its really calming and just what I need before I start college!

One more thing, I loaded up the game and got a "kernel panic" error and it said to send a picture to the dev, but I reloaded the game and it was fine. Do you still want a picture?

I'm glad you figured the puzzle out, and thank you for your kind comments about the game! Best of luck in your studies, BTW!

Oh no, that's the first kernel panic anyone has reported!! If you have that pic, I would like to see it, please. It happened on loading the game?

Edit: Also, did the kernel panic occur in TaiFabPlus specifically? What hardware/emulator were you using?

Thank you for the good luck!

And yes I have the pic here, never put a photo in the comments before so if it's not formatted right I can always email it to you.

This was on tabifab plus, I've not got the original on this cart. It happened on loading the game right past the initial screen with your QR code on it. I'm using a Gameboy colour and a cheap SD card compatible flash cartridge. Weird because I think it stores the game itself in the cartridge once loaded. But yes after that it loaded fine, I think it might have gone back a save but I only lost one puzzle's progress.

And apologies for the bad picture, it's hard enough seeing it IRL lmao
