I was too stupid to get what I needed to type. But I wanted to get away from the creepy wizard asap :-D
I don't get why I get a panic attack for typing correctly
All that just to do ballet? Give me my battle! Great use of the theme, hopefully it's not that hard for me to speak to someone, but it was funny how I myself felt under pressure and embarrassed to keep them waiting while I was writing. Cool game, was fun.
I think the wizard wants to grope me.
It's a great tool, made my realize that my spacebar sometimes types twice so it's kinda broken... And also It's a really good and thoughtful game, very nice job!
Art, voices, vibe, JOOS 10/10
damn typos 😂 the wizard’s voice just lowered my chortisol level
I absolutely love the art and the voice acting! The gameplay was also really fun. I didn't know i was that bad at typing :(
don't worry a lot of people have been struggling 😭
The audio and the voice acting are what really stand out to me in this game, good job on that. The graphics are could be more polished but the style you used makes that work in a charming way. The ui didn't work super well for me, at some point I clicked out of the text and I think I couldn't click back in? It doesn't help that the game isn't available in fullscreen mode. You have a setting in the itchio page to allow a fullscreen button, I would enable it.
thank you!!! i just changed it, should be fine now!
Just awesome. It's a silly game that really made me chuckle. The visuals aren't perfect, though I personally think that adds to the charm. Reminds me of Zelda CDI cutscenes, but without any animation. Doesn't take itself too seriously, which I like. I also thought the gimmick of having to type out a response with no mistakes was really interesting and really gives you the anxiety of talking to people you don't know. I didn't, however, know it was the arrow keys to pick the dialog options until the last time. I also really would've liked a timer on the dialog! That would've really made it intense. The amount of time spent on the response screens (when the person you're replying to responds) is a little bit long, which I get is probably in case you can't hear the voice acting, but it'd be nice to be able to click through it. It'd be really cool if it was more of a choice who you talked to, as I ended up just getting talked to by the closest person to me. Finally, if you had more time to make the game, it would've been cool if there were more options for NPC's rather than only the amount you needed to talk to, but that's not as possible in a jam so I get it. All in all great, I'd love to see more!
i agree, we just didnt have enough time to implement all those things haha
no thats so okay! still really enjoyed the game regardless, the extra thoughts were more for if you had more time :D
I really liked voice acting.
