I really enjoy it! Very cosy and peaceful concept. The rules are described very clearly, thanks to that it's extremely easy to just start playing. I also really like the design of the document - maybe the graphics are not yours, but you put an effort to adjust it. What I'm missing is maybe some mechanics that defines how you earn stars. It doesn't have to be complex system, but just something that can help with achieving the goal. I think I will come back to this from time to time ๐Ÿ™‚ Nice work!

Hi sundew! Thank you for your kind comment! I added in some mechanics on earning stars,  essentially you earn a star when your shop offerings match the customer's likes. If you have something they dislike, they will not give a star.

I had great ambitions to make Honeybuns the most cozy bakery in the whole forest. The day was foggy and very noisy. It was so noisy, probably because there is a new member of community! Everyone is talking about him. As it turns out it's an old friend of mine, the Owl. Our friendship was always pretty unobvious, after all I'm a Mouse! The natural prey for the owls. He's a smart guy, so there was no problem for me to conquer my fears. I've greet him at the bakery with pleasure offering him my specialty - Cinnamon Cupcakes. I wanted to give him the cupcakes off charge, but he refused and wanted to support my new business. He was so happy to see a familiar and friendly face. We've talked all day and because he was the main cause of the towns gossips, eventually everyone gathered inside my bakery. It was a great day!

I've never seen a journaling rpg like this, however I'm a big fan of these sorts of games.

The rules are well put together and, to be honest, the whole thing is adorable.

Good job!
