You nailed the theme for me and the idea and concept of the game is awesome

Design, sound and music are all good
Only 2 bugs I had was : 

- When I fail, the game freeze completely

-  For the upgrades, when  I clicked the arrow and then the meal to upgrade the first click isn't taken into account. So  one case I spam clicked one thing and it got 2 stars directly ; the other case I clicked on a meal,  it didn't upgrade and I clicked on another that did work.

Other than that, great game ! I had fun. Keep it up

Good mechanics and nice SNES style.  
A little 8 or 16 bits music would have been great addition

Nice game, keep it up !

Sadly I'm stuck at the first mini-game as I've always been shit to flappy bird. Can't go further than 5 peaks. 
Seems like there is a lot of mini games to enjoy. Maybe randomizing the games from the start or having a "skip" button after a certain amount of failed attempts would be cool !
I will not rate the game as this is mostly a skill issue on my side and do not want to devaluate it based on my experience

End screen is absolutely cute and deserve to be seen <3 

Controls were a little hard and that bridge made me want to quit very hard x)

Otherwise, no bugs !

Good game, keep it up !

Thank you !

Thank you !! You grasp the idea and feeling we wanted to convey, that's awesome

Thank you for your kind words !
I changed the recommendation then ! Thank you for reporting that in :)

Thank you !

Thank you for the feedback !
Initially it was planed to have it appear quickly in the middle of the screen, Wario-ware style but couldn't fit it on time so we preferred to have the instructions at all time appear. It is also why the game is not very punitive and you can quickly restart the minigame.

Very cute and original idea ! The Doki voicelines are a nice touch
I had bugs where some dragoons decided to have better things to do and running by themselves out of the map but they always came back to me when I called them so it's fine ! 

Cute & good game, keep it up !

It is unique and cute ! 
Everything is fun and coherent. Music is bubbly and adorable that fit the theme. 
I had a little hard time to guess that you had to avoid the stickers at minimum and not being like me trying to collect them all :D 

Great job, keep it up !

Game is cute and concept is nice !
Just had little difficulties with the nests were it's not possible to place eggs behind others
Good job, keep it up !

Loved it ! Game is quite hard still. Theme is on point & loved the graphic & idea. Keep it up !

Bug ? When moving, if I shoot an ennemy ( close enough to be sure i didn't miss), it wont touch

Simple and cute. Sounds are perfect
No bugs encountered

Animations are awesome and the good narrating voice took me by surprise ! Good and cute game, keep it up !

A fellow Dokiware game ! 

Loved the illustration and the wario ware style~

At the end, the sound was destroying my ears but I gave in and saw the end screen ! 
Great job ! Keep it up !

The artstyle is lovely and it's a unique style of gameplay ! Music & SFX are good too ! 
No bugs encountered ! 
Good game, keep it up !

Thank you for playing and I'm glad you had fun !
More money for both of them !

Thank you for the advice, I had no problem with chromium only with firefox :/ Normaly the game is with a set size and no fullscreen on itch to avoid problems like this, in opposite, I had to check arraysizebuffer otherwise my game wouldn't launch properly xD 
But I'll keep that in mind if I would ever stumble upon this problem, thank you for the advice !

Very addictive ! The music is very nice

I am not able to go higher than 5 laps, i am not made for drifting 
I do not find the link to the jam theme

No bugs encountered !

That's a good game, keep it up !

I hate both of you for making such an addictive game

Art is the cutest, the gameplay is on-pair with the game jam theme
I just had to mute the tab after a while as it felt like.. her laugh... was nagging me...

A bubbly, cute or lofi style background music would have been a cherry on top ! 

Did have one bug : If you wait long enough for the bubble to come down, you can precisely place it where you want

800 without reaching the last ball is my pb :)

Great game, keep it up !

I feel bad crashing into so many people lol
The long neck idea is great and theme is respected ! Had fun ! The best person to run into is chibi  imo ;)

Bugs ?
-At some times ( not all the time, I don't know the trigger exactly) I could drive in reverse
-Sometime you have a NPC car hidden behind a "friend" and it makes your counter reset :/
-End level sound hand clapping SFX is really really high and obliterated my ears ._.

Other than that, good game with a unique idea ! Keep it up !

The writing is not my style and I won't judge it.
The animations are great and well made !

I got the "Good ending" ( that's what the end screen told me :))
Theme is respected as it was a one-of-its-kind chain reaction
No bugs but lots of typos are present

If I can give some advices (For Visual Novel writing) :
- Be careful of the font you used for the texts as it makes it hard to read (notably for people with dyslexia or other visual impairments) + the green cyberpunk design on the textbox

- In terms of visual novel, it is often wanted to not write emotes (:D) in the text as it breaks immersion and fluidity in the reading


You can feel the passion in the game, keep it up !

Love the idea ! Even if at times enemy placement and moving around feels a little bit unfair, I had fun ! 

For something made in less time than others, you did great !Keep it up ! 
(No bugs found)

No problems ! It is a very good first attempt, and as long as it runs in at least 1 browser, you're all good ! I am glad to hear you still learned and had a god experience
It's okay ! You can always come back to your game after the jury voting. 
Ahah, I see i'm not the only lost in the controls ! 

you did great and it's a cute game ! 

Very nice and easy to grasp ! 
Theme is well implemented and cozy
The animation & end screen are fantastic !

Be careful as other games assets might be under License and not available for fair (or game jam) use

Good job, keep it up !

I found it funny and that's definitely something I would do too after falling too many times or add invisible walls :D But the message was very funny :)

It's so so cute ! (Yes explosions are cute.)

I'm not a big fan of puzzle games and couldn't go further than level 5 but the jam theme is on point !
The explanations at the beginning are perfect and so well illustrated. 

No bug encountered, maybe just the aiming sometime but.. that's a skill issue-_-

"Bug": The game doesn't work (It goes at 2 FPS, even after loading screen) on Opera GX. Everything works perfectly fine on Edge !

Good job, keep it up !!

Loved the animations & the game overall ! 
Ambiance & music are on point
I just had a hard time to do ricochets among dragoons

Now I just want to say "wiwiwi" all the time...

Great work !


To the person who wrote that under the map... I see you
Bug:
- The game is not playing in Opera GX, but does on Edge so it's good :)

Be careful, the game doesn't run on Opera GX but IT DOES work on Microsoft Edge :)

The controls are hard and it took me long minutes before understanding I COULD RUN by spam clicking left mouse button :D 

I went on a stroll in the city, it's nice ! Because of the bugs I couldn't complete the game but decided to visit instead ~
This is a solid base to make a nice collectible game ! Keep it up !

Noted bugs : Some presents are out of reach, for ex. at the car washing station, in front of the starting house etc 
The gift in front of the house kills you ? I don't understand why.

Good job & keep it up !

Good idea based on punch out ! 
Controls were easy to understand but learning to dodge on time was hard ;) 

The serious style of the fights is very well made too.

No bugs on my side ! Maybe just that if you choose left at the first screen, it instantly launch the fight without context so I was lost but that's it ! 

I hope you'll continue working on it to see the next fight & full animations ! Good job !

Thank you !

I edited my answer as I inverted Novel Studio with Ren'py on my points, sorry !

Yeah that's what I thought as I looked into it  but it's clearly AI and not stated anywhere. Which is why I prefered to think that it wasn't wanted.  
Good job on your game still, you can be very proud  of it ~ I hope to see you more someday !

I am going to give an honest feedback here as a long-time Visual Novel player/reader.

The story sounds good and the writing is nice. There is a good idea for a VN that could turn into horror/suspense and investigation. 

The exposition of everything at the beginning might be a little too much. Try to dispatch more your information's to not overload your reader with informations that they do not find useful at the time.

Good points to keep up : 

- You have good writing, maybe try to expose a little less the characters & story elements straight on. Even more on a pure Visual Novel.

- Novel Studio Ren'py gives you a wide set of tools to make a key-in-hand VN and you tried to use them all which is nice.(Edited as I mixed up names)

Try to avoid :

- Try to not use AI for the characters next time. Novel Studio uses AI for it's in-package assets.

- You didn't had time to do the main piece of gameplay that is outside of Novel Studio Ren'py current toolset (The social media app) from what I understand. I would have preferred to see a poorly-drawn paint or free-assets VN game with less exposition but with the Social media App included.

- The music isn't really fitting the ambiance and kills the mood.

I tried to make this feedback hoping you didn't knew you were using AI artworks to help you as much as I could.

Very nice game !
The painting felt "clonky" at times where I couldn't get a character painted even after multiple tries
Game gets hard very quickly but it's still very well done ! Good job :)

Thank you very much for your feedback ! 
I am glad that the feeling I tried to convey the best I could was on point then :D 

Players are curious and players often intend to stray from the right path :)

Thank you fur the bug feedback ! I will look into it to release a better version after the judging time.

There is another game mechanic, thought it is not accessible right early on. Which is also why hints are displayed (For the game Jam only) in the pause menu ;)
Thank you again for the feedback, it is greatly appreciated !

Awesome tutorial ! 
Graphics are simple but very consistent and remind me a little of Space Invaders :) 

Too many enemies and I am not good enough at thoses types of games but I enjoyed it ! Great job !

Nice cute game ! Got the theme on point !
Dominated the whole garden and I enjoyed it ! Would have like more to also have some "defense" to do but I read in other comment that you planned to add it :)

And eventually they will take over the world :)

Controls are smooth and idea + theme implementation is great. 

I think I lost sight at some point, colors are very close to each other + the end game effects destroyed me
I learned more with this game than in biology classes !

Not very fan with clickers but this prototype was solid and not too long ! 
Maybe adding more effects on the screens ( seeing exactly how much followers we gain with each action ) or for actions that ask to wait having the button fill up until it's ready would be great !

A little note : I couldn't read the fonts very well as the letters are too close of each other with a big color contrast
