Very unique and fun gameplay, for a full release maybe make it a little easier the first day, then each day make it harder and harder. But overall a very good game.

Really fun! Mechanics are easy to understand yet engaging and I liked how sometimes there would be false calls, the pizza one was especially funny. At one point there were so many calls that I thought I was screwed but barely made it through and it was very satisfying. Good visuals and audio, and fun gameplay.
Great work!

Wibbly's Treasure HuntVery polished and fun game! I could definitely seeing you expand on this and turn it into a full fledged release. Nice job on this!

A Knight at the InnActually, like stated, this game is so awesome and super polished.
I really like it!
On the last day I had paramedics for like 4-5 hours in one place, which might be a bug.
What I would suggest is adding some form of a cool interactions, for example fire fighters could be really useful to help a bit in a lot of scenarios!
But still, that is one of the best entries I have seen, so really great job

SpellcraftI like that you can send more than one team if you are not sure how to solve an issue but it increases the risk. Also, having the time paused while clicking & reading an accident was a good idea.

IT Help DeskAdded the game to my collection. Very well done. I liked the visual style and the addictive gameplay, reminiscent of the game "This is police" Great job!

Goat ate wolfSuper fun game! Really impressed by the cheer amount of different calls you could get and I always felt like I was making important (mostly correct) choices. The report system was brilliant, great way to give feedback on performance but allowing me to choose when I had time for it. I had a great time with this game, good job!

DevoirQuite an original idea that was well executed. Fits to the Game Jam theme.
Choice of Ambient music and SFX really add to the atmosphere and build tension. Art style is minimilistic but effective; the flashing effects for the emergency vehicles is really on point. Colour palette is good too, colours mesh well together and the emergency call icons stand out.
For improvements, I think adding some more icons to the report popups would be benefitial. Namely, how much the disorder/tension bar is affected and icons for what emergency vehicles had what effect. Just makes it a bit clearer to see what's going on at a glance.
Nevertheless, a very strong submission that I enjoyed playing to the end. Excellent job!

Picking Up the PiecesNice game! I would have loved to have clear feedback on whether or not the cars we sent were usefull so that we can focus on the rest of the game. Very cool nontheless!

Tech MoversThis game is so good! I love the strategic gameplay, the custom messages for each report and the status reports you get afterwards! The background music was super relaxing and a great choice for a game like this! This game is very polished and it fits the theme very well! Good job!
