Ooooh what a mysterious ending! What does the pendant look like? What is the name of this forest creature? Did we ever even get a pumpkin?? So many questions!! This was such a fun series (as always!) and while I was often over-ruled when it came to the choices haha I don't think there could ever really be a "wrong" choice in these games <3

Loelya thank you again for the fun game, and while I was a bit concerned at your seeming absence it was only ever that, concern and care! I don't think anything that's happened could be considered "letting us down" at least not as far as I'm concerned! Every game, every path, every individual picture is a gift you've given the community, NOT something you owe us!! So please don't worry about us too much and make sure to take all the time you need, anytime you need it <3 Now I won't be a liar and say I wouldn't love to see another game as always, I think I can speak for most of us and say we will not be disappointed whenever you feel ready to move on to other things. Instead we send back to you the love and joy you've put into all these works you've given to us!

Always wishing you the best, and hopefully this and the other messages here can bring you some light just like you have done so for us. You more than deserve it <3

PS: YIPPEE PETS
PPS: Also claiming raffle because why wouldn't I hehehe

I'd like to claim my spot in the raffle please! ^^

I enjoy playing these games, from the amazing art to reading the story and coming up with my response, it is all very fun!
This takes a lot of time and effort to create, so it is understandable and reasonable to wait for new pages. Please don't feel as though you've let us down!

[LA's DarkFireWolf]

Yes please don't apologize! This was fun and it was made more fun by seeing the drawings at each new turn!
It was like one of those choose your own adventure. Well sorta xD!

Totally game for the raffle lol have to see if any of the pets catch my eye. And I don't forget XD!!

nothing to apologise for!! make sure to look after yourself, burnout is no fun <3

i really adore the colours you used here. the forest guardian stands out in such a magical and shimmery way!!

claiming a spot in the raffle <3

[Rylf]

Such a cute ending. <3 I love these story games so much.

Hello! What a lovely ending to this game! ^^ It was very open-ended but satisfying all at once. After reading it, I do believe protecting the acorn was the better option. ❤

Thank you for another fun game! Waiting a little longer for the next part was no trouble. Please don't feel like you let anyone here down! Time needing to be spent away, for whatever reason, is understandable.

I would definitely keep my eye out for another game next year if you plan to do it. I'm also very interested in the new projects you've mentioned wanting to do on this part and the final part from the last game. Your art is incredible and I'm happy to be following you. Excited to see what new stuff you do in the future!

i think i missed the raffle, but this was really fun! i really enjoyed it

I don't have the oomph in me to respond to everyone individually this time around, but I wanted to post and thank you all so much for your warm and supportive messages. ;o; ❤️ I feel so touched that you all would worry for me & also all these echoes that you'd be up for anything that comes next, whether that be a final game or a new project or anything in between. I will listen to y'all and maybe just xD take a break for a little while to think about what I try to tackle next. I am truly reassured to know the end of this game coming so late wasn't a major disappointment - I care a lot about making sure I keep my word or stay reliable but I suppose I can agree that in the real world things just come up sometimes :'] and you can't always do much to change it.

I am so, so happy that everyone had fun with this game despite the sporadic schedule. <3 I really love seeing what you end up picking for the paths haha sometimes I have my predictions in advance, sometimes I have no idea, and sometimes I predict but I end up completely wrong and y'all go the opposite way I was expecting. xD like it's really super fun for me on the other side of things too, and I've just loved getting to interact with people and seeing both new and familiar "faces" each round. c: thank you all so much for joining in and playing again with me.

as per usual, I will roll twice, and the first winner will get your pick of either a very rare pet or 50c$, and the second winner will get whichever of those two options was not chosen by the first winner~ ^^

[Loelya]

okay the first roll gave me #18, and the second roll gave me #12! so the raffle winners are Raptocidic and Sparky!! respectively.

Raptocidic, if you see this and wouldn’t mind posting here once more to say which prize you’re choosing (then send me a trade for it), that way Sparky!! can see what to expect/send for second. ^^ if needed though I can reach out via pm and update this post afterwards.

one last thank-you to everyone who played! <3
