CCG writes – “The concept of a young witch using her broom to deliver packages is heavily influenced by Hayao Miyazakis 1989 animated film, Kikis Delivery Service. Per the developer, other inspirations include the games A Short Hike and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. The colorful world and art style make this game feel like an interactive Studio Ghibli film.”
