Gorgeous art and atmosphere! Love the adorable voices.

Good game for a first time, keep it up!

georgeburg 2025-10-06 22:25

A very beautiful and charming game, a worthy effort for a first game!

raylond 2025-10-06 22:28

Great art! Damn those mushroom hitboxes are brutal :D

luderik 2025-10-06 22:29

Gorgeous graphics and an enjoyable soundtrack make this game a true delight to play! The characters are incredibly charming

Such a beautiful picture... It gives one a feeling of a warm autumn.

it is a very visually stunning game. I had fub playing it.

Cute graphics!

OMG!!! It's so cozy!! Wow, I really like it. Deserves five stars

debugman18 2025-10-07 02:03

Cute art, you can tell the team put a lot into the atmosphere!

alex-o 2025-10-07 02:13

Really good visuals here

ljol3 2025-10-07 02:46

Super cute!

The audio loop could have been a bit longer, and text boxes could have been faster/player-controlled.

ulziton 2025-10-07 11:09

Beautiful visual

haka 2025-10-07 11:19

What a cute game and style! I'm a big fan of this cozy, fairy-tale aesthetic. A tiny bit of feedback: the mushroom hitboxes felt a little unforgiving and could probably be improved. Also, I think I found a bug - I skipped a dialogue choice by walking forward, and my character walked right off the screen and got stuck. But I really love the game, and I'm excited to see how you improve it!

tesseus 2025-10-07 11:41

Beautiful game and really nice voices for the characters. I am curious for your next game :)

luna-smol 2025-10-07 12:20

Very cute game, good work! I really like the art!

I think the biggest issue it has right now is that the combination of player sprite and hitbox makes it very hard to judge how big you are. Cause it goes to the edge of the skirt but one wouldn't expect the skirt to be part of the hitbox if that make sense

hansflyingturtle 2025-10-07 12:44

Graphics are super cute! The music got a little too repetative after barely a minute though. But understandable for such a short time to make a game.

marcherin 2025-10-07 13:45

Aww I love Sylvanian Families! Playing this making me wish more games with this kind of art direction! I personally like the details for the clouds also Violet's dress when jumping, the overall visuals look artistic I do agree that the music loop feels repetitive, it'd be better if it's a little bit longer. But overall gameplay is fun. It's kinda hard for me with all those mushrooms but I think every elements are well done in this short amount of time.

mia-143 2025-10-07 17:00

Such a cute and cozy game!! I loved the atmosphere and characters, the colours matched so well.

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:16

@mia-143 Thank you so much !!

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:19

@marcherin We are very grateful for the input and thank you for enjoying it !

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:21

@hansflyingturtle Haha yes, we were a bit stressed with the deadline, appreciate the advice.

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:24

@luna-smol Good point Luna! We did think the volume of the skirt would be a bit of a problem, thank u for telling us

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:25

@tesseus Glad you liked it <3

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:27

@haka Thanks for telling us, we're happy to get constructive feedback :)

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:30

@raylond We didn't think ppl would find them hard so that's a surprise :3

zombiewalrus 2025-10-07 17:45

Great art, especially I enjoyed screen with the falling leaves, looks charming! Love the atmosphere overall, friendly animals and their talking reminded Animal Crossing a bit. Looking forward to your next entries!

yungfrv 2025-10-07 17:58

@zombiewalrus Ty so much, we were inspired by their voices

iriska 2025-10-07 18:47

The graphics are simply lovely! The only problem is that the game's physics are a little weird. Otherwise, the game is awesome!πŸ’œ ⭐ πŸ’œ

mamboman 2025-10-07 19:45

very cute =) the graphics are so nice!

nassshie 2025-10-07 20:23

such a nice game! but the character's speech is a little too fast

amunonra 2025-10-08 12:52

The game looks very cute and has a fantastic artstyle. You did a good job on that part for your first entry. I especially liked the animation of the falling leaves.

However here are some things on which you can improve in my opinion.

The music could need more variance to be less monotone and fit the mood better. For example you could add some additional notes in the melody or create new patterns alternating with each other to keep the music interesting.

Although the artstyle produces a rather cozy mood the chat with the characters felt rather rushed and a little too fast, so I had to talk with the characters several times to read everything they had to say. I think giving the player the option to skip to the next text passage by themselves would fit the pacing of the game better.

Lastly the character physics and collision with shrooms felt a bit wonky, but that can be tweaked easily and is nothing other game creators haven't gone through in the making of their games before.

Keep up the already good work and I'm sure you will become better and better.

yungfrv 2025-10-08 14:07

@amunonra Thank you sm for the advice! We'll take this into account

edvard 2025-10-08 14:44

I liked the game's nice visuals. I'm not particularly fond of this style, but overall it's super cool.

daniella 2025-10-08 16:04

It is so cute!!!

anaticula 2025-10-08 18:02

Cute little game! Had a bit trouble colliding with mushrooms but passed. Artstyle is so nice!

derek-glennon 2025-10-09 03:46

Wonderful vibes! Music and art are super well done. My nitpick comment would be that I think it should be a bit clearer visually that the mushrooms are bad and the collision between them and the player might need to be adjusted. Really nice job though. Very cute :D

neowhoru 2025-10-09 13:17

I guess i made it - very great artwork! It looks very cozy and i have "cozy atumn" vibes.

There are some issues: - if you are talking and restart talking by accident it seem that the audio speech is parallel sometimes - Jumping is a bit floaty - Hitboxes of the deathes are too big

And if you made to the final screen and didnt know you can run out of the view :) However besides that and that it is a jam game i really like it!

qiqiqi 2025-10-10 10:54

The art and atmosphere are very pleasant. Though the gameplay and mechanics feel a bit rough, it still shines through.

dumchevdev 2025-10-10 13:15

I fell in love with your pixel art and the game's aesthetics, excellent work!

fupi 2025-10-11 01:00

Really cute lil game! The art style reminds me of older children's books illustrated with little dioramas, is this relatable? Idk if other people had those as a kid. I really like the graphics, the controls were alright, the collisions felt too big though it's a first game so this is something you'll learn with time! The sounds are cute but the music is not good... it doesn't really have a clear melody, just feels like random notes, and it's too short too which makes it feel repetitive. I'm sorry! But this is something you can improve too in your next games! Overall it was just very cozy and sweet, and I vibe with this kinda thing :3

zathnic 2025-10-17 19:00

Very beautiful art and mood! The gameplay parts could have been a bit longer and with a bit more challenge

fractal 2025-10-18 15:00

Cute and easy game. While it does indeed lack in challenges and gameplay, the graphics, music, and atmosphere are well done!

Two small things: - your game is currently not playable on other keyboard layouts than Qwerty (for instance Dvorak or Azerty), make sure to use the key code for the movements (event.code instead of event.key) - change the name of the link above from "Microsoft Window" to "Web" (or similar), currently it looks like it can only be played on Windows

tanis 2025-10-19 12:16

The art is super nice, kudos! You really did a great job there. But the game itself could be improved with just a few changes:

- add some variation to the background music, it's too repetitive and it's also too loud compared to the sound effects - the platforming mechanic could really use some love. Making it more arcade-like would make a huge difference - adding some effects like your player character flashing when it hits the mushrooms before porting it back to the starting point would make it feel way more like a polished game - add some more challenges to make it more engaging.

llevelin 2025-10-19 20:28

The game is very cute:3 developers, great job!

yungfrv 2025-10-21 07:59
