lol "I don't like your her" 🗣️
This reminds me a lot of a concept I had during the brainstorming part of the jam. It would be called "Out of the Loop" and you have to say the right things when talking to people about things you are unaware of.
Congrats on your first game! Specifically, you have sfx that are pleasant and your music actually loops! Not all games I've played have those, so that is a big feat right there. My one thing here is if you are good at small talk like myself, the game doesn't loop at all. Overall, nice job and keep pushing
thank you! and youre right. i shouldve made the game more interesting and "loopy" but i cant change the past. still pretty happy with how it turned out!
Pretty funny entry. Though there's not much game here. It would've been fun if there were different dialog trees or something.
thank you for the feedback!
Hey, happy to help. I'd love to see what this could become with a bit more work done. And if you can, please come check out our game.
All you have to do is choose the pleasant sounding dialogue options. There's no twist you literally just have to say what a normal person would say.
Sorry if i offended you with my game😭
This is the real life embodiment of my fear of small talk. Finished the game a few times, but thought I messed up, so played it again a few times. Most toxic friend I ever had. Great job for a first game.
thank you!
Well done on your first game. A simple concept well executed. Great game!
thank you!
Gotta say, it's fantastic.
I got it right the first time so I couldn't experience the loop. So, I tried it again picking different dialogue options and him pulling the gun on me is great. Congrats on your first game!
thank you very much! glad you enjoyed it.
Fun concept! Good job, died twice before finishing it haha
haha, thanks!
Great work for your first game! I was able to make it all the way through on my first run
thank you!
Nice idea to make a game where you have to talk your way through and redo it to get the conversation right. I felt that the choices weren't really that interesting though - like nothing here really required you to have replayed the game to know what to say (except maybe the present thing, but even then you are allowed to back out of your wrong answer). I won on my first try just by being nice instead of mean.
Would be more interesting if there were things you have to know that aren't obvious to not offend them, like if you mention their partner, you learn that they broke up and now they're upset with you, so you have to go back and avoid that topic.
yeah thats the main critique ive been getting and i gotta say its true. its really my first real game and i am proud that i finished it but it could be way better than it is now😔
Congratulations on finishing. Hey just getting to the finish line is a big hurdle. Take the critical responses as things to think about next time and don't be disheartened!
I tried speedrunning it and only got a bullet ÒwÓ
haha
eh, the blonde guy needs therapy
I guess😭
Short sweet experience! Well if we forget the part where we get shot of course x) Nicely done for a first game! Could definitely see this developed further with more content. Great job!
thnak you very much! glad you enjoyed i!
Great job and congrats on your first game! I could see this idea being expanded into a whole narrative game of someone trying to navigate difficult conversations. I also laughed out loud when I found out the guy shoots you if you mess up haha
thank you so much!
I was killed immediately in my first attempt :_ Cool idea! definitely fits the theme : )
thank you!!
Nice experience I definitely play enough to see what each dialogue was lol !!
thank you very much!!!
Haha I was not expecting someone casually taking out a gun because I don't remember my birthday gift XD. It would have been nice to see the background scene changing when progressing through the day. Maybe going to the amusement park and get a new branching conversation tree. Overall, a fun concept, I felt that it is missing a bit of content.
yeah, thats true! it is very short. I had more planned for the game but wasted a lot of time and couldnt implement it😔 gald you enjoyed it!
Hey, maybe something you could still work on and release the full version later on :)
I would be killed irl, nice one.
haha, thanks!
I did it in my first try! The art was Clean. Also like the Time meter, it adds Tension.
nice! thank you for the feedback
