I love wholesome games like this! I would honestly pay for games like this! The art, music and gameplay are all so refreshing and fun! Imma go try to make ginger milk now.

Thank you very much for your kind words! The ginger milk curd steps are a little simplified, but you can find it fairly easy to make if you Google search it. :D

OMG Nooooooo I really did think it was that easy (not even kidding; I am gullible when it comes to cooking)

wisty216 days ago

Well, it is! But to make sure it does come out well, I would suggest this recipe haha~ https://redhousespice.com/ginger-milk-curd/

I ended up playing three times (the third was to see the secret ending in the creator's note). The artwork and characters are super cute! My favorite games were the cooking and apple catching games. The ending music was my favorite in the OST.

After reading the creator's note, I felt a little emotional reading the line, "...the rabbit is believed to be a Bodhisattva who offered itself as a meal in the tale..." while on the ending section of the game (where Yuu is now on the moon).

The research and ideas behind the decisions of the game were well thought out and I was impressed. Thank you for this wonderful and cute game!
