+ Nice idea

+ In the theme

- color lisibility and "lost" bubbles

- The small implementation cutoffs make the puzzle solving experience not completly smooth

Blue sharks, red flags

Nice idea. One suggestion would be let the little speech bubbles follow the dino's when you drag them. After I dragged a couple, I forgot which dino's belonged to which speech bubbles. Good work for a first submission though!

The speech bubble system was actually supposed to look like that, and the bubbles were meant to appear only when the cursor hovered over a dinosaur. But with my current skill level and the limited development time, I couldn’t manage to implement it without everything becoming completely buggy lol.

Yeah completely understandable. We all need to make compromises for these things. Sounds like you have the right idea.

Not sure what to do?

I can move the dino to a seat but then what? 

Am i missing something?

Yes, you’re missing something, but it’s not really your fault — the whole game isn’t displayed on the canvas. If you switch to fullscreen by clicking the button at the bottom right of the game, you’ll go fullscreen and finally see the [Dating] button to confirm once you’ve seated everyone.

Cute theme! I think I got it after a few tries, but not sure as there was no feedback on if I got the solution or not.

Thanks! The only feedback I managed to implement in time is the hearts — they appear full when the pair matches, and broken when a red flag is detected in the partner. I was quite slow at coding the game, so I had to sacrifice some polishing.

This is a nice idea! 

Unfortunately after a few tries, I can't get the game to display properly (even zoomed out/reloaded etc). It's trying to be fullscreen inside the window . It might just be me! Still, I like the idea and high ratings for theme!

This is the very first time I’ve ever published a game, and I struggled quite a bit with the resolution, so it’s totally possible that I messed up some settings. Thanks for pointing out this issue — it’ll help me pay more attention next time :)

If you look in "edit game" near the bottom, there's some checkboxes for "add fullscreen button", that might do the trick!
