Very cute graphics; once we figured out how to play (a short tutorial would have helped) we got the hang of it quickly. Really creative ideas around incorporating layers into the design, too.
From my stepdaughter: I really liked it! For a second I couldn't see the outfit theme so I went with a cute summery theme, but then when I saw it I was like, oh that's right! Amazing work.
From me: Simple, but it works well for a reason. Good variety of outfits too.
Thanks, I did take a bit of inspiration from those (especially the house upgrading), although their "walker system" is light years more advanced than this is lol. But one feature that I did cut from the game was directly inspired by Zeus - I did have an idea that there would be inter-town competitions with other mayors, like tests of friendship or beauty or fun challenges. On the other hand, I always wanted something where the people were not all the same in their wants. I was definitely more inspired by the Sims games in that respect, and in the decoration aspect. Anyways, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
Thank you so much. The festival almost got completely cut, actually - I had one day to go and I'd done the music for it, but no art at all. Plus a bunch of other stuff to do and test on my list, so I wouldn't get all the mechanics done for it. But I figured if at least a few buildings could have festival decorations that'd be fine. I think it was a good move to keep it in the end; you're right, it definitely adds to the cosy vibe.
From my stepdaughter: I loved it so much! At first, I wasn't good at it but then I got great at it. My final score was 196 and that was on my second time!
I get a "Unsupported device pixel ratio 1.25" message in my browser console and an error about BrowserFS, even when emulating a phone. Sound appears to play though.
My own phone isn't great to be fair, but I still tried it on my phone's Chrome and it did the same; when I tapped it eventually the screen went silver instead and the music hung. Log showed some sort of font-related error.
What device are you using that this build is working correctly on? Would love to test properly.
From my stepdaughter: Some of the orders said sprinkles but I couldn't find the sprinkles option. Really fun game - I like how you can create multiple fro-yos.
