Very cute game! I like the range of characters you populated the town with.
Ahhhh! Thank you so much! I love your video! I'd love to follow you, is youtube the best place for that?
Thank you! If you want to keep an eye out for more intermittent let's plays, following on youtube is best! It's basically when I have time, but I'll definitely have more in future.
How cute! I will have to play sometime soon
Aww, thanks! We had a lot of fun making this little cozy game. Hope you enjoy it!
This is very cute and cozy and I loved it!
nice existential game
I love the chill music and cozy vibes! The characters are so cute, the animations so vibey, and the lines are so charming, like the Mayor wondering if the new tuft is his replacement hehehe
Perfect relaxing game after an intense work sesh (or playing through some intense spooktober games LOL)
Wow, felt a pang in my heart when I had to leave the valley! I like how unlike other farming games, these crystals take several lifetimes to grow
Really enjoyable!
ahhh i’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Those were definitely the vibes we were hoping to communicate! ❤️
Oh my goodness, the comments about "I need to remember I have a limit" and Old struggling to no longer be able to handle as much, instead learning to delegate, hit home hard for me in the best of ways. And "*paint brush noises intensify*" had me cracking up lol
This was such a cute, adorable, lovely, sweet, cozy game! I loved visiting Crystal Valley and it's epic that my crystals will be growing there for generations! I'm also just soooooooo happy to see a game so focused on positivity. Positive vibes are my aesthetic even if I'm not always the most positive, and it was so lovely seeing it captured here in Crystal Valley 🧡
Also I forgot to say on the jam page but this Itch page is AMAZING!!
My beautiful, colorful crystals!!!!

tysm <3 ;m; i'm really proud of the itch page!!
i feel like every tuft had a valuable lesson to learn and pass on to the player --i'm glad it resonated with you too<3
You deserve to be proud of it, I would've guessed the page itself took the whole week 😅
And yes! I loved that, how each tuft was its own genuine character, and how they interacted with one another. And how anger still existed in such a cheery place. I'm bipolar af and living with rage/depression amongst my otherwise-chipper self has been one of my hardest life lessons; it makes me so happy seeing it here :D
🥺❤️ tysm
This was super cute and I adored the visuals/music!! Gotta say my favorite tuft is Emo tuft <3
tysm!!! Emo is definitely a top fave on the team side too ❤️
I love emo tuft too lol
Emo tuft is friend shaped.
Okay, all of the tufts are friend shaped, but especially Emo!
