DUUUUUDE I took way too long to play this game and I kinda regret it.

I loved the music, it fit perfectly into every scene, even if repeated.

The art style was obviously adorable! and the story was pretty engaging though it was a bit too fast for me. (P.s: wonderful job on the editing.)

I loved the puzzle mechanic! that was a pretty innovative way to make puzzles using Renpy.

I got all the endings as far as I can tell, I did feel it was weird to have a choice right before the first bad ending but it did add a bit to the dialogue in a helpful way.

I'm glad I managed to experience Otherwordly Goods Store before the end of this jam, for a game made in less than 30 days, this was awesome!

P.s: Brez is my fav.
P.p.s: ...

Pierogi! (I'm from Syria and we have something similar)

Thank you so much for your comment! QoQ 

I'm glad you had fun playing it! I'll make sure to tell my friend you liked their music ;w; 

I feel like Brez might be the most expressive character in the game, compared to the quiet Nora and Nedra, haha!

Lovely! First of all, just let me say that the character designs and art are so great, they really catch your eye with how unique and pretty they are! Also the backgrounds are so nice and fit really well with the style.  I liked how you had to answer those questions with the references sprinkled in, those convos were awesome ;) 

And I got all the endings! (I think?) Two bad and one good. Honestly I got the bad ones first ;) I found the concepts of the forgetfulness and the parents being trapped really intriguing, and I would love to know more about this world! As a side note, I liked how Nora could just refuse to go with the others at one point instead of being forcefully dragged by the plot, it being a natural possibility given their state of mind.  The characters had great distinct personalities and I really enjoyed exploring this story with them! Congratulations on publishing this <3

Thank you so much for taking the time to play my game! I'm so glad you had fun with it and found the characters likeable :"D I always worry my writing is a bit annoying haha! 

It means so much for me to read comments so thank you for making my day! And of course if you have any criticisms feel free to share as well! ^^

Love the character designs so much, they're all so cute ^-^ Especially Antenna! Reminds me of Robohead from Cytus 2, only Antenna is waaaay cuter! And Nora's bunny is so awesome! I have a bunny kinda like that which is a backpack x3 Aaaand, Brez is pretty darn close to how I dressed up for Halloween a couple of years ago cos I have a bunch of like gurokawa and menhera stuff in my wardrobe <3

I guess the rest should go under:

SPOILERS


Enjoyed Brez's chiding when I picked Madoka Magica just because it's a show I love and wanted to see what they said if I picked it xD And when I got to the Polish food question, I was hoping kluski would be the answer cos I remember when I went to a relative's Polish wedding, I had never had kluskis before, and I liked them, but made the mistake of eating way too many, not realising how filling they were, and then I was too stuffed to eat anything else xD Like they just massively expanded in my stomach, haha. I've never actually tried pierogis, but the ones I've seen in the supermarket look tasty :3

I wound up getting bad end 1 and 2 before getting the true end, but I still haven't checked out every single choice yet, so I feel like I'm probably still missing something!

I'm so glad you enjoyed this game! :"D 

Thank you for getting every ending aaaaa! ;w; I honestly didn't expect anyone (other than my friends x'D) would be so interested in playing through every single ending, so it makes my heart warm and fuzzy knowing that you did ;w; 

Kluski, like in kluski śląskie? Those with a hole in them? :0 It's more regional I think, and there are many kinds iirc ^^ Kluski can even mean "pasta" as a whole, but if you mean kluski śląskie then I can agree they are yummy and very stuffing x'D Pierogi are super good so I advise to try the ruskie ones owo They're the best if you fry them on the pan with some chopped, fried onion  ;w; I just moved to UK for my 3rd year at Uni and bought some pierogi, but they weren't as good bc I didn't have a pan and had to do them in the microwave x'D

You're probably not missing a lot! ^^ In the bad end one, when there is a choice to split up with Brez, if you choose to split up there is a different scene and then later an additional line of monologue right before the end, and the right-left choices are basically the same, you just choose where to start ^^ 

Edit: Oh and obviously, can't wait to play your game @w@

I always try to play as much as I can of the games from jams I've participated in if I have the time cos I feel like it's the perfect way to end the jam :3 You spend all that time working super hard, and then you get to relax and enjoy what everyone else has made ^-^ And yours is so funky! The backgrounds kinda remind me of this scare attraction I went to a couple of years ago called Killer Clowns on a Spaceship, where everything was all like neon and futuristic :D

I Googled kluski śląskie and yeeeesss! That's what they had at the wedding, haha. My tasty mortal enemy x3 that's really interesting that it can mean pasta too :o That's something new I've learned today! And frying pierogi with onion? Yes please x3 I need that in my life, haha. 

That's awesome that you've moved to the UK for uni! I was born in and still live in the UK :3 But my grandad was Polish. He came over to England after the war and met my grandma. They were the sweetest old couple in the world and I loved them to bits ^-^ Really wish they were still here, bless them. So yeah, we used to go over to Poland sometimes for family occasions like the wedding, and I loved it so much! Everyone was so friendly even though we barely knew each other, and so I cried when we had to leave xD

But aside from the microwaved pierogi incident, I hope you're having an awesome time at uni in the UK :3 

I'm sorry to derail your comments thread by talking about kluski and pierogi btw! >.<

Ahh, I think I did get that other scene for choosing to split up with Brez because the very first ending I reached didn't have a bad end screen, but it was a bad end and it took me back to the title screen where I reloaded and picked the other option :3 And ahh, I see with the left and right! I just picked left every time cos I have this weird head mantra whenever that choice comes up in stuff 'Left is always right' xD It makes no sense, but it stops me from sitting there for 5 minutes thinking about which direction to go, haha.

Yeah honestly I want to play all the games as well, but uni started really intensely and suddenly I have 5454154 projects to take care of x'D But I'm still going to play each game no matter what >:3

Aww, I'm sure your grandad was lovely! I also recently lost mine due to lung cancer so I know what you mean when you said you wish they were still around >__< Also I'm always there to talk about food, especially Polish, so don't apologize >:3 

Oh cool! I would've stayed for my second year as well but because of Covid I decided to go back to Poland >__< I missed Wales so much, I'm glad to be back ^^

I kinda said to myself, okay, I'm gonna work my ass off throughout September, and then take a semi-break through October to actually play things x3 Not just from the jam, but I've got a giant backlog of other games too! My brother got me Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope for my birthday way back at the start of the year and  I still haven't even opened it >.<

Oh no, sorry you lost your grandad recently :( That really sucks. Losing anyone you love is always horrible, so I hope you're doing okay. *Virtual hugs* My grandad went a long time before my grandma and I honestly don't know how my gran had the strength to carry on for as long as she did without him, bless her. She's the strongest, wisest woman I ever knew :3

That's totally understandable you wanted to go back to Poland when Covid hit! I got stuck at a friend's place during the first lockdown in England and cos it was at the opposite end of the country to my family, I just felt so trapped >.< I was worrying about my family all the darn time and just wanted to be with them, so as soon as lockdown lifted, I went straight home. I've been on holiday to Wales a few times and I love it! I definitely prefer Wales to England x3 Good luck with your studies!!

Cute character designs, and the background art feels very fitting to the overall vibe! Haven't finished yet, but definitely intrigued to see the other items and vignettes
