Great job! This was a cute story and nice graphics. You made good choices of music and sfx. I would have liked to hear some kind of audio for the text (voice acting or soundfont (e.g., like in Undertale)) and been given the option to advance text myself or auto-advance. Other than that, this felt very smooth and polished. Glad you could make it to the stream!
Thanks for playing :)
