## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Recreating this game

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Separate foreground characters from the setting using thick dark sprite outlines and thin, low-contrast environmental linework. Carry the subject motif into the interface through a shaped dialogue container, decorative ends, and matching character accessories. Use speaker-specific accent colors consistently across names and dialogue; for a new subject, replace the sweets imagery, characters, and palette while preserving this foreground-background hierarchy.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the captured walkthrough frames, not by the creator.

Pastel visual-novel artwork featuring a candy shop, then two characters in a laboratory with dialogue.

- Color: Soft lavender and lilac backgrounds, pink accents, mint and teal details, and cream dialogue panels.
- Type: Flat, outlined cartoon illustrations with a compact visual-novel interface.
- Framing: Scenes are centered within bordered game screens. Character scenes place a green-haired character on the left and a pink-haired character on the right, with a wide dialogue box across the bottom.
- Structure: A shop illustration with explanatory text is followed by dialogue screens, then several dialogue exchanges in the laboratory scene. Speaker labels and small interface controls appear along the bottom.
