Gee dang that game was charming, from the beautiful art style to the simply written characters, everything was just so stylistically charming. The sprites and environments looked really good as well, everything in the bakery looked really detailed and the apartments and character sprites that all look different from each other which I was very impressed with, in the town area really stood out to me as well put together and I could see that effort and care were put into every little sprite and tile and that really grabbed my attention and made me appreciate the world more. All of the cutscene backgrounds and scenes were really cool to see too, I really think all of your character designs shined in the cutscenes and I loved to see them changing their expression to fit the situation and not just being all static-faced. One more thing I liked relating to the art style was the design of our main character, she is so cute, especially in those last cutscenes, and her design really does fit the small town baker aesthetic quite well. The baking mechanics were very nicely executed, gathering ingredients is simple enough and it never really felt repetitive even though they were used as the games main mechanic and never added to, but they didn't need to be. I also liked the recipe book actually being useful for more than one thing. To fire off some quick things I noticed about this game: the note in the snow was a cool little nod to the developer, the font was a little bit hard to read but I'll chalk it up to it being stylistic, the sound effects are a really nice touch, the tiny sparkle animations on the customers was really cool to see in an engine that is so limited in the amount of expressive animations you can have, all of the cookie art looked delicious, I liked the recipe book opening on the last page you left it on, the dialogue of the townspeople is a little flat but I'll excuse it for the simple fact that their dialogue changes between days which is something I can really appreciate and admire, and I like how this entire towns winter tradition revolves around this one baker. All in all this game was really solid and did a good job at being simple yet really stylistically charming and fun, great work!
The graphics are just so gorgeous, I loved the sparkles on the customers and the houses behind the tree especially! The Kirby's Adventure-inspired font was such a cute touch, and I loved feeling helpful to the digital neighbours! Thank you so much for this delightful game :)
I'll admit I had some difficulty with the icons, but other than that, it was a nice time. Easy to understand gameplay, and a fun trivia bit at the end I was nowhere near prepared for XD
Love your artwork! Remembering all the ingredients and their location was a bit frustrating, found your guide too late. I enjoyed playing, it gave me an enormous nostalgia flashback <3

Incredibly cozy game where you help people enjoy Christmas. The warmest game with the coolest palette. What inspired you to put a quiz at the end?
Tried this after playing An Autumn with You. Once again the pixel artwork is fantastic.
I love the positivity, cuteness and kindness that this game gives off!
Love the ending
Nice game (sorry for late reply as i played this yesterday)
The graphics are just so gorgeous, I loved the sparkles on the customers and the houses behind the tree especially! The Kirby's Adventure-inspired font was such a cute touch, and I loved feeling helpful to the digital neighbours! Thank you so much for this delightful game :)
very cute game and great soundtrack <3
I love it but the controls are disappearing
Very lovely little title!
I'll admit I had some difficulty with the icons, but other than that, it was a nice time. Easy to understand gameplay, and a fun trivia bit at the end I was nowhere near prepared for XDNot to mention a chart-topping soundtrack ;)
This game is still amazing, lovely graphics, simple gameplay loop and a huge amount of details! Love it!
Nice game! Very relaxing.
- The font is nice but takes a little bit to get used to
- It would be better if the A button was also triggered by ENTER or SPACE. Or show the keybinds at the beginning.
very lovely!
Amazing!!
Love this! What was the font used?
I love this game so much. It's my comfort game and it's so heartwarming ghfsdjla (also more cookie recipes would be cool!)
I wish the cookies had names,the first order I got asked for the pointy ones but a bunch of them have points. I didnt know which one I had to bake.
OMG loved it so much! I need more of these 😭

Love your artwork! Remembering all the ingredients and their location was a bit frustrating, found your guide too late. I enjoyed playing, it gave me an enormous nostalgia flashback <3
