To be honest, at first I wasn't super excited to dive into a text-based adventure. Nothing against the genre, just not normally my thing. That being said, this was great, and help my attention the whole way through.

!!!SLIGHT SPOILERS FROM HERE!!!

my absolute favorite line is "the bird used the telebirdation spell" lmaooo

I also really enjoyed the meta lines about how the game was made in a couple days so "you expect me to draw all that?!" and the confusion about the witch dude being dead in cannon or just assumed as such. 

!!!END SPOILER SECTION!!!

To be honest, this gave me a new appreciation for these types of games. Reminds me a bit of reading Homestuck in junior high, which brought back a lot of good memories, as my fiance was the one who showed that comic-game-mashup-mess to me. Thank you for making something awesome, funny, and oddly nostalgic. Full stars :)

The storytelling is engaging, love the art style. Just consider the spelling, thanks.

Moral of the story: always give birds your extra breads. So well written illustrated! Nice job!

I was hooked as soon as the bird had dialogue... Great text adventure! With awesome graphics! I am definitely not the most seasoned itch.io player but I've never played a game with this setup before on the site so it was super interesting to see.

Got all endings! Very lovely story, I have many fond memories of choose your own adventure books so this hit home in the best way. I wish there was some backing music (or maybe some KRAAA) but a jam is a jam! Thanks for making such a unique entry.

*SPOILERS*: there are actually birds, so I felt a little lied to. But I was able to push through and enjoy the experience anyway. I'm not sure if it was intended to be read this way, but in the panel when the bird looks like it uses the telebirdtation spell, it looks like it's just flying away, which is hilarious. Great art, very funny, birds, KRAAA!!
