Very fun little puzzle game and love the dark take on the theme. 

Very polished gameplay, good simple art, great music and sound effects, difficulty built up well, but could have made it a little more challenging at the end, but overall great submission really enjoyed it, thanks for submitting.

Great puzzle game, simple yet engaging, love the art style and the little cutscene, the puzzles themselves weren't too hard but I liked the progression, congrats guys solid game.

This one is really heartwarming and cute & fuzzy. It shows that simplicity can be very fun and effective. The art looks very nice, like straight from a children’s book, or TV show.

This was a great puzzle game representing the theme very well! Thank you for "Leading" me into the puzzle design I felt like I learned the mechanics as the levels got harder! Awesome game!

Very cute! I loved the graphics, very consistent visual style. The puzzle mechanics are really simple to understand but the puzzles themselves are challenging enough to be interesting. You introduced new mechanics at the perfect pace, and the game ended before getting stale. Great work

I really enjoyed this game, I have a lot of time for grid based puzzlers like this.  It was well implemented and there was a decent variety of puzzles given the timeframe for development. I liked the music, sfx and artwork as well it tied together nicely. Good work.

Great visuals that perfectly match the theme. The puzzles were enjoyable but could be slightly more challenging. Overall, it's a fun game.

Good game, I suffered hearing loss  because of the scream sound. Worth it :D

The visuals are great, I especially loved the decor objects such as the apple with a worm. The visual effects are great and the story is cool ! Puzzles were fun with cool ideas as obstacles and the music is relaxing. Great job !

Neat puzzle with just the right difficulty to chill with, I really like the animations and sfx on all the interactions :D

Candy and salty snacks, check! Great game, loved the art and sound effect, very well all-round submission!

What a great little game!  Just about everything was on point here, impressive for a game jam.  I'm not a huge fan of these sorts of puzzle games, so that I saw it through to the end is a definite kudos!  Some of the puzzles sorta stumped me for a second, but finding the right moves to get through and making it was super satisfying.  Loved the ending, I'm relieved the Witch found out in time.  Close call! ;) Thanks for giving us a game!

Lovely game, I liked the art style and later puzzles were difficult enough to feel good once I'd solved them
