How does your game meet GBJam's theme?
Candy Curfew is an adventure game built in GB Studio for the Gameboy Color.

Our plot centers around a young hero who trick or treating on their own for the first time. Not only is Halloween spooky by nature, but so are the concepts of newfound responsibility and looming time constraints.

What sort of adventures will you have before the clock strikes 8pm?

Really fun game! I enjoyed all of the little trading sequences in this one, I really felt the time pressure of doing as much as I could! I managed 36 on my first playthrough.

Only way this could've been improved is a bump in the graphics/audio departments. Everything was fine otherwise!

Gotta love silly little stories.  They sell a LOT better if the in-universe characters take the story seriously.  You did well with this submission!

That is a cute one. I loved it!

Is there a way to open the church door?

There is not. One of the things that ended up being out of scope with the time we had.

My favourite one in the Jam so far.

I have many games to try yet, but this is the first one I give perfect score in all categories
