A very well created game that has a really good story to it. As many others have said, the emotions that are conveyed are done extremely well and the writing was well done also! Great work!
The game conveys emotion really well, and the mood and vibe feel just right.
This is a really good game! It conveys emotions beautifully - both the audio and gameplay made me feel so many different emotions. This game truly gave me a new experience!
I got as far as "Life will not always go as you expect" It was very smooth and pretty. Although the windows loading screen (Character) did get a little buggy a lot of times that it reset. The game is very hard but that's a skill issue lol
Pro tip! If you give the pitch of your sound FX a slight randomness it will make them less repetitive. And not be so weary to the listener. Here's the AI overview (moron if there ever was one but I didn't want to try to find the video I saw about it a while back)
I think this game would be improved by a technique like this! But overall great job! I really enjoyed it!
Also I'd appreciate feedback on my submission if you get a chance!
Thank you so much! I'm planning on polishing the game post jam and this will definitely be a good addition.
I tink tis game was twee times better tan ta rest of ta games I had played :). I was willy tinking that I would hate tis game, but ta night tat I played it, I had a dweam. I saw God! He was like " YO BRO, I really dig GreenMonk3's game. You should rate very goody. GOD OUT!" I taught tat it was all fake! But no I tied to go back to bed and Sonic appeed right infront of me. And he said " GOTTA GO FAST" Tat was all the tings I neeted to know. Tis was ta real deal. So I rated his game duper well and I am writin to you all to play tis game. It has and will change my life.
Reasonably fun, a touch melodramatic. The failure/restart mechanic is frustrating (takes a while to restart) and also glitched out once
first off: how bout a trigger warning if you're gonna hit me in the feels so hard!
but seriously, i loved how the emotion - which are good - included ones like: anger, disgust, shame, embarrassment, you know the "negative" or "bad" emotions. because there's no such thing. emotions are things that exist, that we need to embrace, accept, and understand about ourselves. but that you distinguished that from intrusive thoughts, such as "i'm not good enough", which are often confused with those emotions. that's a very highly emotionally intelligent approach to emotions, and i love to see it. it's not often you see these things grouped in this way - which i would say is the "correct" way, and a way that makes me want to continue engaging with the source material/creator. this was lovely.
also, the gameplay was actually quite fun. at first i thought it would be too finicky, but it felt quite good and easy to anticipate if i could get past, or not, the things i wanted to catch/avoid. good job!
Thank you so much! I'm so happy that the psychology behind this game came across clearly. I wanted to put emphasis on how every emotion is valuable and that there is a reason for them to exist, while separating them from negative cognitions, which I feel like can often be incorrectly and unhealthily grouped up with them. I'm so glad you enjoyed, this Game Jam was a lot of fun!
That’s exactly right! This would be a great therapy tool to help people start to understand that. It’s difficult, but incredibly important.
This changed my perspective on life as a whole, I am now a Buddhist monk living in Cambodia because this game was so eye opening. Thank you greenmonk3, signing off forever...
I really love the narrative in this game. All the little quotes and words you collect / avoid felt very meaningful. The game mechanics are simple yet fun and addictive. Great entry!
Beautiful game! The artwork and music are wonderful, and I really liked how you interpreted the theme. The writing is also well done and ties everything together nicely. Awesome job!
This was a really unique and reflective approach to the theme. Really good!
really beautiful and relaxing narrative ❤️❤️
That was such a calming experience — exactly what I needed after a hectic 4-day game jam. Great job!
