The pixel art is really cute!

Unfortunately certain skills such as Eruption and Royal Banquet freeze the game because the texture files weren't in the game so I ended up losing a lot of progress before Crystal's boss fight.

Albert got arrested 👍

I usually look for tilesets, especially modern American ones cause RPG Maker's modern RTP assets are based off of Japan.

Same goes for VN backgrounds that are modern.

I'm happy to see you back. Still enjoy dress up games at my core.

The colors were vibrant and bright which fits in well with the forest theme. Oh, and the little bunny is so adorable. -u-

The art in this is beautiful! It's so crisp and bright. The story is short but I enjoyed the growing trust between the two characters. Great job on this. <3

That was a super sweet story! I'm not very good at sliding puzzles so I didn't unlock any CGs. But I thought it was an interesting mechanic to make it unlockable. The characters were fun and likable and I was glad to have gotten the happy ending. Great job on this!

Oh I absolutely love crossdressing pretty boys. I love the dynamics between Kishou and Haru and the enemies to lovers spice. Bummed that the demo ended on one heck of a cliffhanger, but I would like to see the full version some day!

That was an engaging story! The visuals of it starting off with everything blacked out and having the overall aesthetic of it being in monochrome to cement the WWII era really makes the story impactful.

At first I was worried that Chris had abandoned Hayashita when rescue came but then having the westerners discover him would be a worse choice. But I'm glad that after everything, there was still a happy ending.

Loved this entry. <3

Holy shit, I’ve been living under a rock. I can finally bang the daddy!!!  *u*

A BL platform game, that's pretty new to me. The puzzles were challenging but not frustrating, which is great! Both protags are pretty good and so is their relationship.  The section where Gwen is alone does add some suspense to the story and make his character more relatable, though I kinda wish there's a little more, like some backstory on how he met Chris and all that such. Since only Act 1 is available, I just hope future acts expand on it.

Only explanation I have for Mia hitting as hard as Cheryl's magic is so the party's balanced out and both members have their own niche. Though story-wise I'll just say that Cheryl's age caused her powers to not be as effective as they were before, and/or that Mia's actually quite athletic thanks to swim club, though they may sound like hand waves more than anything.

I did initially have plans for more optional areas but they were a bit too ambitious to include in a jam game, not exactly sure if I (or my brother) would be up to create a larger scaled post-jam version. But there is an optional boss rush where it takes place back in Mia's house, and it unlocks right before the final area.

As for the next time you attempt the Camazotz battle, have Mia tank with Textbook Guard on first turn, it's a lifesaver.

Overall, I appreciate the feedback!

My first thought when I started this game was "ayyyy this brings me back to Pokemon Crystal!"

I enjoyed the story, I could feel the emotions in the characters as the tension rises up to the climactic battle. The ending was really bittersweet, I even teared up a bit.

The battle system is also engaging, having prefixes and suffixes to make many different combination of attacks is quite original. Although, for a game with infected humans as the enemies, I think having them roam around the map gives them a more threatening feel and increases the stakes of the story.

Overall, really great entry.

Now that I got to see the real game, I can say that it's really adorable! I really loved the sprites, especially the little doggos. Animation's fluid and smooth. I also enjoyed the main characters friendship.

I know, it’s not done yet. I have the password written in the discord server.

I’m fully aware of the map teleportation bug but my lack of knowledge in programming and my brother working on another jam that unfortunately overlapped with this one didn’t give us enough time to fix it.

We’re not exactly planning a sequel (at least as of right now) but you are correct about Mia gaining water powers, and I’m glad you enjoyed the game. ^u^

I'm amazed by this. While I'm not the biggest fan of the love at first sight trope, I do enjoy way the story progresses and how you gotta restart the game multiple times to achieve the best ending. The sprite and CG artwork is by far the best part. The voice acting can feel flat occasionally, particularly when Atsuo has a rather casual tone of voice during a scene where he's dying, but it is impressive for a jam game to even have voice acting in the first place, imo. Really great entry!

This brings me back to the good 2000s age of Deviantart and Newgrounds, how I would go to these dress up games and make my own character.

Really loved the artstyle. One thing I would like is more color options, since there were some clothing and hair combo that I think would look good but the colors would be all over the place. But overall, I enjoyed this cute game. ^u^

A simple question before I join the jam, but does the engine used matter? I only have and am the most familiar with RPG Maker and have used it to make a dating game. It didn’t contain any combat but let’s were to say I did include combat in my VN, would it be disqualified?
