Key & Compass presents:
Candy
by Ryan Stevens

In this incomplete, surreal, and short game, you play as a child dropped off at your Aunt Lidia's house. Fortunately for you, Auntie's taking her beauty sleep, leaving you free to find and eat all the candy you can.

This solution is by David Welbourn, and is based on Release 1 of the game.
