I played this one for longer than I'd like to admit. I was a little frustrated at the start until I saw the tiny numbers going up at the bottom indicating the candy. It would be helpful feedback for the player to have some sort of SFX or more obvious visual that they are receiving candy from the houses. I never did make it back to mom on time though, I'm still a little unsure on how to do that, but perhaps I'll revisit and try again.
I really enjoyed this, well done!
