I can finally play it! :3 (Too bad I couldn't rate it :/ )
I really enjoyed the game, even though it gets repetitive quickly. I think the music and the art also play a factor. (By art I mean, for example, that there is only one type of tree, everything looks a bit the same). Secondly, it lacks a larger goal or other gameplay loop. Something for the player to work towards.
I think the tutorial should be manually controlled so the player can read it at their own pace.
I liked the controls, I just think it needs some animation when picking up candy.
All in all, a great game as a second game released and for the time frame of the jam. The art style is consistent, the gameplay is fun and it's a working game that works! (apart from the jelly bug).
