Great style and super creepy atmosphere and story, the gameplay loops get a little repetitive but other than that great job!
thanks for playing! given more time i would have broken it up a little more but 5 days what are you gonna do.
The art style is really nice and I enjoyed the ending I got ^-^
thanks so much!
I can't believe this is your first game!! Congratulations!! I really like it, and I thought the voice acting was fantastic!
thanks for playing! everybody did a great job
The voice acting and visuals are pretty great, especially given the time frame, and I didn't experience any (obvious) bugs as far as I am aware. Overall a solid 4/5.
Thank you! yeah i'm happy there haven't been any bugs reported. i appreciate the rating :)
This was neat! Visuals were great, voice acting was fun, and the music felt very fitting for the style. I managed to get two endings but can't work out how to get the third yet... All around, nice work!
Also, I found one minor bug I wanted to let you know about. If you go to the oven but don't open it, trying to leave takes you back to the oven until you open it.
Thanks for playing! i did hear about the oven thing, but since it doesnt affect endings/options I think ill just leave it (ready to move on to the next project lol)
ooo this is interesting. going to revisit this one for the other endings for sure!
You got a lot crammed in here in the time frame it seems,
Glad to see so many other VNs in this jam!
GG
thanks so much! i honestly didnt even know about the prevalence of visual novels until now lol
I only made it as far as the hug smh. 4/5 Doctors recommended.
haha
Really enjoyed it, good game!
thank you!
Really unique visuals. You really put a lot of work, I think it's crazy to do a visual novel for a jam. Back to poppy hunting for me!
haha thank you so much! enjoy hunting lol
I liked the art style, and the gameplay loop was satisfying
thank you! i really tried to make it not too annoying
Great job!
thanks!
Wow, this is stunnning! :)) and loved the voice acting too!
Got the bad ending.. maybe I shouldn't trust a random, suspicious looking guy so easily (‾◡◝")
but he looks so trustworthy and normal........
Really cool game with it's art style and voice acting! Well done for coding your first game it was my first too and we both used RenPy I think XD
thank you, haha yeah i think there were a lot of renpy ones this time around
Really cool colour choices in the game! Not a big fan of visual novels but it was interesting!
im glad it was interesting :)
Great game! Got two of the endings but couldn't figure out the third. I loved the art and the concept, the music is also really good too. The voice acting was also really well done. Only problem I ran into was a bug where I couldn't stop inspecting the oven until I chose to open it. Congrats on your first game though, this was a very strong start!
Thanks so much! i see where you're coming form about the oven but since it doesnt affect your ability to get different endings it should probably be fine
The visuals are beautiful! I like the concept I just wish there was more of a "game" to it with proper choices that feel impactful. Keep it up! I would appreciate it if you rated my game too!
Thanks! i see your point on the game aspect, i initially planned for a narrative mini-game with each poppy collection. but as for meaningful choices that comes from the endings :) gotta work with the time you have yknow
I enjoyed it! Congrats on your first game! Huge accomplishment
thanks so much!!
I loved this! I'm not sure 100% what the story was, but mythology wise I know that the Pomegranate was how Hades tricked Persephone into becoming bound to him. Lilies are symbolically the flower associated with rebirth, love and purity. They're also the traditional flower given at funerals. In Greek Mythology Poppies are associated with Death.
I got all three endings. This was well done and very enjoyable! I'd love to see more!
thank you so much! yeah there wasnt a lot of story to be found anyway, but as long as you got the endings im satisfied lol. i think you're the first person to recognize the significance of the flowers so good job!
This is amazing! Beautiful artwork and I can see all of the hard work you put into coding this. I love that two of the Lily's are hiding so you have to be thorough. I got the good and bad ending I assume.
good job! thanks for playing
This was cool! Took me a couple of attempts to get the good ending, but it was fun. The artstyle was really unique.
im glad you had fun :)
