Reminds me of the Infamous games which I love, very appealing art and color pallet. I like the choice making of good and evil, just needed more gameplay juice. Very well done for a first game. Maybe a good and evil rating could for a simple add to show how your actions have meaning.

Thank you for checking out my game, it's my first game jam!!
A lot of things were rushed during the development cuz I ran out of time haha...
There should have been some cutscenes and indicators to the player where to go etc... and the overall game should be longer.
I'm glad you still tried to complete the game and find it entertaining, thank you!

Thank you for checking out my game!!
Originally, I wanted to make it so when the timer runs out, a cutscene of the civilian freaks out when they see the villain (you) and accused you of doing bad stuffs no matter what you did (good/evil), thus adding more penalty (evil scores) to your accumulated score... After that, you'll be teleported to the next area but I ran out of time to develop them HAHAHAHAHAH *ugly sobbing*
Thank you for checking out my game!!!
1. Yes, I've received quite a lot of feedback on buggy collisions and will try to fix them in the future 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
2. "A little sprite at the bottom of the text" idea is genius!! Thank you!! I actually ran out of time so I didn't managed to implement proper indicators for the user so I just slapped them on the dialogue box while rushes in panic HAHAHAHAH

Again, thank you so much for the elaborated feedbacks, really appreciate them!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you so much for the feedbacks!!! A lot of things were rushed because I ran out of the time hahah... I'll take note about the controls and the fruits!! Maybe in the future I'll make it so something pops out to inform the player that the item is interactable or maybe highlights the items instead of colliding. Again, thank you for the wish and advise!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
As “another pro tip”, use an area2d to check if the player is colliding (around) with interactive objects; So instead of doing labels for each fruit you just do one general “cast” and that’s enough to verify if the player can interact.
Myself I create stuff like this just for this kind of casting. It can be attached from a simple “billboard” and up to NPCs. Try studying a bit of polymorphism and “ECS”, which both will give you enough route to expand, build and debug a lot of your future projects (And this one also if you want to keep adding stuff to it).
That was my 2¢ but overall the actual pro tip is: Games are a farce/illusion, just focus on making pretty farces/illusions and that will do for most games (shaders and baking textures/lights exist for a reason…)

Thank you for playing and I'm glad you like it!! The flowers section was purposedly made frustrating as the villain (you) loves burning them out!! So it's hard to fight the temptations MUEHEHEHEHE

Thank you for checking out my first game jam entry!!! As a sucker for games like "Earthbound" and "Undertale", I really had fun coming out with the dialogues!!
Thank you so much for checking it out!! The game assets were made by Ninja Adventure - Asset Pack by pixel-boy
Thank you for checking it out, it's my first game jam entry!!!
If you're interested, the story behind the flowers is funny actually... it should be a different scenario where you could choose to burn the trashes at the park or ethically throw them away in a dustbin... But I had less than 24 hours to finish the entire game, and decided to burn the flowers for extra evilness HAHAHAH
It was pretty hard to not burn flowers xD Good game overall. I'd like to see more difference in gameplay between good and bad actions, not just pressing e or g button, but it's really good for a first game jam! Keep up the good work!
Also found just one bug in the beginning. When switching to the second scene happened i got stuck like on screenshot xD

Thank you for checking it out, and yes I only found the bug with the collider once the submission date has ended, sobs sobs :'D
I originally plan to make it longer with 5 different scenarios but didn't had enough time, might expand the game once the jam has ended hehe...

Thank you for checking it out, it's my first game jam entry!! I originally planned to make more stages but ran out of time. Might would expand the game once this jam ended!!
Thank you for checking it out, it's my first game jam entry!!!
I originally planned to use my own made assets, and supposedly there are 5 scenarios to be done instead of 3, but I ran out of time hahah
