This was such a silly, delightful little VN. The dialogue had me chuckling (especially the puns), I think I got to all the endings? Some routes ended a little abruptly but honestly that had me chuckling too. And OMG the music goes hard! I'm definitely keen to see what comes next; this was my kind of silly humour, more please!

THIS WAS SO CUTE!!! It made me laugh with the modern humor, since this old tale never really gets new versions. It was super silly and made me laugh when I used puns in my first ending. Best ending was totally not a red flag :3
Rad! I've gone back to your page and added it to my collection. I'll make sure to go farther and see what's up, now that you've said to keep with it! I'll have a final DAY 12 or 13 stream for the spillover(late submission) games and replays like I'll do for H&G! Subscribe and you'll get a notification with the headline something like "Replays and Spillovers". Thanks for the connection, and good luck with the jam and developments!
We are so freaking normal, comparatively!
I love the unhinged humor. Of course the "Don't do that I am trying to flirt" option had the best ending with the best steak. Nothing bad happened. Sometimes I wonder where my sister is.
I loved the fresh take on Hänsel und Gretel. The character design of the witch is amazing.
Thank you for making this game!
Nicely done! I appreciated the puns! I was impressed by how many endings you were able to get with so few words - all felt short, and it would be fun to see more of the world, but none felt rushed! You also were able to build up some impressively gruesome tensions in a relatively short time in all the routes I tried, which in itself is super impressive - doubly so for being a solo project. Really great storytelling skills - congrats on the submission!
What a nice story. Haha, I really enjoyed the puns! I also took the romance route, because I loved the witches sense of fashion.
This was a very delightful little story! First ending I got of course was being eaten by the witch lol then I got thank you for the food ending. Great game! I really like the design of the witch, the cutlery hanging off of their hat was a really cool look for them :)
lol this was very entertaining—the puns were, well, punishing? XD
I loved all the puns in this story hehehe. And the witch's design is amazing ( ദ്ദി ˙ᗜ˙ )
The art is really cute! We can flirt with the witch and HECK YEAH!!
