What inspired your game?
The desire to write a story about two people who are opposite from each other but must look past their differences to succeed
How did you incorporate the 'girly' theme into your game?
The cute and simple art style, upbeat music choice, and even the casual style of the game were chosen to appeal to girl gamers. For the jam specific theme of "opposites attract" I tried to write the two main characters as opposites of one another who bond together through their passion for baking. I also incorporated simple puzzle games. I wanted to make them more complex and build on the theme of opposites attract there as well but run out of time. Thanks for reading!

Top notch style and a very cute puzzle to make the game interactive! After the mayor comes in to tell us about the competition, I couldn't drag pastries to finish the puzzle though. Not sure what happened, but I just refreshed and restarted the game (in case anyone else runs into this).
There are a few small typos (e.g., "mocing") and I think the purple box for the matching pastry could be brighter or larger! But just to be frank, I completely understand -- I also have very hard-to-see UI in my own game heh. It took me a minute to figure out what to do initially, but once I saw the box, I got it.
Also, ngl, some of the flipped patterns after the baking competition starts had me staring for a bit -- and oh my goodness. The cake in the final scene. LOL Fantastic game!
First visual novel I played before and honestly it was really interesting. I was surprised I enjoyed it this much. The story was engaging. I never played a visual novel before so maybe I'm a bit bias cause this was new to me but I was really impressed. The art was definitely my favorite part. Such cool drawings. :P Great work.
Thanks so much for playing and the kind words! I am glad you enjoyed it :)
