What an unique idea, great job :D

I love also the vibe, visual and how you incorporated this simply theme into a though game idea.

Great idea.

At first, there were too many messages appearing at the same time, which made me a bit flustered.

But it's not a big deal.

Good game.

like it :D

Awesome idea! I kinda really really love the main mechanic?!! Having to persuade others, while doing so at the cost of your relationship, while persuading being easier when you have a higher relationship, it really feels like you're having a dilemma to confront your friends about their behaviours at the cost of your friendship :D

Except it's about dogs and cats. Way more important! >:0

I think there's still untapped potential in the mechanic, but given how you nailed the ambiance it's not that much of a deal!

Good job!

Very unique interpretation of the theme you got here. Nice! I esspecially like the audio! Nice game!

Play my game Loop Track please. Back to the game I really like it, it’s a great game to try ;D

Submitted

Very stressful yet the audio and art design make this seriously addicting. Spent maybe too much time playing

Really unique concept, and seems executed pretty well! I did find it a bit difficult to keep track of everything - the font was not the easiest on my eyes, and the interface felt a little finicky to me. Articles and messages were coming in quickly, and it seemed half my contacts disliked me almost immediately, oops! I don’t think I quite figured out the proper strategy, but maybe I should’ve given it another attempt. The art/music do a good job communicating a specific vibe, and if not for the constant deluge of articles I could almost call it relaxing…! Good work on this.

Does not feel like a jam game at all, very impressive! It was a bit hard to keep track of the different contacts when they all shared dialogue lines though. Great game overall.

An interesting interpretation of the theme with some really nice gamefeel, art and audio! An insane amount of polish for the timeframe, great job!

Submitted

Your concept is really fun and creative. It puts a nice twist on the theme.

Also your visuals are really - really good!! Great entry! Cheers.

Love the UI and how it ties into the theme! I don't know if I wasn't playing it quite right but I felt like all the messages got a little repetitive, and I wish there was slightly more diversity across the conversations!

So creative! I love the separate friendship/animal preference meters! So silly.

Insane diegetic UI. Love this one!

Interesting implementation of the theme. Loved that the buttons were actual buttons on the desktop that was very clever.
