Nice game :O I couldn't ever have thought of this.
Thanks, I am glad you liked it!
This was really fun! I liked the trivia, there were funny ones and more technical ones. All in all I really enjoyed this game and probably will play it again. One thing I wanted to point out. I'm kind of a slow reader so I didn't always have time to finish reading all the options before the timer ran out and then there were these long pauses in between the transitions that just made it feel even worse that the question time was so short.
That being said it was only a small point of frustration for me. This was a really fun game to play and it's a really clever way to apply the theme.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed playing. I totally agree the time felt a little short, so I’ve bumped it up from 45 seconds to 1 minute. Let me know if that works better!
Impressive .. I could leave this open all day, it's just so pleasant :)
Thank you! I tend to do the same, I leave it open in the background and play it throughout the day whenever I get a chance :)
What an amazing idea! This is my favorite take on the theme so far. Plus, the quality is top-notch in every aspect.
Thank you so much! I am really glad you liked it.
This is cool great job an so nicely visually displayed, I enjoyed the sci fi space theme
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it. Inspiration for the theme came from recently watching Project Hale Mary :)
Pretty interesting idea! Definitely a cool concept but it requires people playing simultaneously to be more fun! It definitely is awesome in a streamer type thing and I love how you can even put your games on it! Great work!
Thanks for the comment! A single player can still progress on their own (by playing against a bot). However, if two or more players submit an answer, the game switches to majority vote logic. I definitely agree though, it’s much more fun when everyone joins in at once!
What an interesting concept and spin on the theme. Well done!
Appreciate the kind words! Figuring out a unique spin for the theme was a lot of fun.
I rated.
Rated back.
I really liked this idea. Very clever idea and I think everyone in the jam should play it. I really love how you promote the games of users who played it. Well done!
I liked how whoever signed you can open there page and try their games, nice connection!
Great game submission brother.
Like the idea.
Nice concept, but… I don’t understand if there’s a way to know how many gave the majority answer.
Thanks for your comment. The initial idea was to use the answer selected by the majority of current players. However, since it is unlikely that multiple players will be using the game simultaneously, I modified the logic so that a single player can still progress through the game independently.
This is an interesting concept, but without a story or any real world connection to the other people in the game. it feels like its missing a mechanic that keeps me wanting to play.
Thanks for the feedback. The core idea behind the game is that it is meant to be played by multiple players simultaneously, where the majority-selected answer becomes the “correct” path forward. The intention was to create a sense of connection between players by grouping people who think alike and making player choices shape the experience together.
Because it is unlikely to always have enough concurrent players during testing, I adjusted the logic so solo players can still progress independently. However, I agree that without enough active players, the social connection aspect and overall motivation to keep playing are not as strong.
