Thank you so much for the kind words Carrot, I'm glad you enjoyed my game and the art and writing! :D I legit want to stay in Loupe's room for a while like yes I'm biased because I designed and drew it, but still!
O2A2 is one of my favorite jams because it forces me to think about how to make animations and visuals in ways I wouldn't be able to in my longer works~ Like the magic was a solid hex color code and telling Ren'Py to make it transparent, and ImageDissolve with a black and white image of the magic circle. I don't deserve all the credit for the wonky text code since the base code was made by someone else and I just edited it, but I love the results from it!
