leaving the nest by WeeFairyFabi
Little Magpie's first home away from the nest
https://weefairyfabi.itch.io/leaving-the-nest

Our interpretation of the jam theme is a little home decorator. Choose how you want the little magpie to decorate it's first flat away from Mama Magpie's nest~ Interact with the game by clicking and dragging a piece of furniture into your flat. Feel free to experiment by moving stuff around, trying different combinations and once you are happy with your new home press the Done sign~

@cat-lab Awww it's so nice to hear that it hit close to heart! I am also going through the leaving the nest experience all over again, that was definitely an inspiration :) Hehe thank you! I honestly really really want to see everyone's rooms and what people choose to keep :3 Your suggestion is really good as well, thank you! I wish we had had some more time, alas I somehow did not notice Ludum was going on hahaha but if we do get back to this idea ever again I will be going with that suggestion for sure!

@hinamarina I am glad you loved the game! And yesss I do love the theme for this ludum, this is an accurate depiction of my flat every time I want new furniture ahaha :)
@minjutin Hahaha you can absolutely fill it in like tetris as well, at some point during testing I made it my personal mission to get in as many items as possible no matte the looks lol. I am just glad you had fun playing!

Thanks for making this cute experience!
All that to say: I LOVE THIS!

I love the story and the humor.
