What a gem of a game!

Even though the game let me bake the pie right at the start (bug), going through the entire game sequence was delightful.  I really like how you incorporated mini-games of different styles and tied them into to narrative/story.  It's easy to see there was a lot of love put into the art assets. 

I think a few more sound effects and more atmospheric background music could have helped make the game more immersive.  Even at that, the game did have a tone/vibe that was well designed.

Great submission.

You say it's buggy, but I've seen worse so far.  At least I could do most of it and get a good idea of what you made.  (I think I started the oven too early and messed up the intended order of things)

Quality overall is top-notch.  Even had a few mini-games to earn the ingredients.  Dialog interactions worked really well.  Art real nice.  Good relaxing game

Suppose if I were to gripe about anything, the broom flying could use some patterns to the star layouts and obstacles on the top of the screen (like fly through a cave, or dodge an owl or bats?).  Stars looked random, and many were just impossible to get

It's pretty alright. While the games are easy to  get through and pretty much doesnt stop you from cheesing the system (you can camp in the upper area and only occasionally let go to collect a star or two after passing a tree in the flying minigame, basically just stick to one tree and occasionally alternate between the two branches in the climbing game and you being able to only place down like 1 or 2 pixels before gifting it in stitching one) the game does have some form of nostalgic charm.

Fantastic game, there's so much content here too! I loved that you had flying ,stitching and even climbing up the tree as a cat, really great stuff. The art work is exceptional, and it was so cute when they all came in and ate pie at the table. I can really see you put a lot of effort into this, so really good work!
