I really like this game! The graphics are cute, and I liked the little song in the background. It was fun :)

The art is so good! Very neat idea, don't think I've played a mold game before. I enjoyed it :)

This game was super cool! It is a neat idea to have mold. @soupsauce I don't think I have either but we have just experienced a first hahaha

Really cool art! I had trouble keeping enough food in the fridge, but I got to 30 days eventually.

@giulia thanks for the crash report! there are some known issues with exporting from gamemaker studios 2 to certain versions of ios. we spent almost the entire last day trying to fix them, but it seems like a gamemaker issue sadly. sorry about that! hopefully we'll be able to resolve them soon, but right now our team is taking a much needed break : )

Perhaps one of the fresher takes on the theme I've seen! Cutesy art, too (hello kittens), this is a cool entry, nice work.

I like the graphics, humor and originality. But the gameplay is not clear and fun enough. Mold only appears at day 10 and before that, you don't know what to do or if there is a bug.

I liked this a lot! The controls felt weird sometimes. Maybe it would be better, if there would be a visible grid to help the player.

I also couldn't get the mac version to work. But the art is super cute and I love the idea.

Cool game, but to be honest it doesn't feel particularly balanced... I only got around five hundred whilst playing properly, but by just spamming the post it I was able to get the following record:

![Highscore.jpg](///raw/48d/d1/z/33b42.jpg)

I'm not sure if that's a bug, perhaps I'm spamming the post it note too quickly, but even when I slow down, I find that the best strategy is to do almost nothing. The art is amazing tho, I really love the visual style. The sounds are also nice. The game also has a great concept, but I'm not sure that it's quite balanced. Still an all round awesome game, congrats! :heart:

This ideas super unique but just a little bit confusing. I wasn't really sure if I should be trying to get things to grow more mold or less. I think what confused me was that if it had more mold it was good(?) but then things would fall out of the fridge if they had a lot. But then things would randomly appear back in the fridge? Besides that I had a lot of fun trying to figure out the most optimal way to grow mold

Definitely one of the most unique ideas I've seen for the jam! A bit confusing to figure out at first, but once you do it's a pretty fun game. Nice job!

Took me a solid minute and a couple try to realise what I was meant to do, some explanation up front might have helped, but the idea is cute; loved the graphics, that's an absolutely gorgeous game!
