I'm gonna be honest with you: making a game about human connections and then have an AI generate everything human about the game (the imagery, the voices and what they are saying seem also very AI-ish) feels wrong man. it all feels a bit hollow and unpersonal.

Nice game - looked very appealing and I enjoyed the story telling behind each patrol as well - that was great. Im surprised this doesn't have more ratings and I hope people will find it in time to rate it for the jam. I think the AI voices were unncessary though and actually detracted from the experience a bit - it might have been better to either have nothing, or more a kind of short 'mumble' sound like you hear in games like Dave The Diver. All in all, good entry - well done.

I love the detailed stories behind every item. I do wish I had the ability to mute the voice acting because it felt very robotic, but the narrative was genuinely interesting.

Nice little story game with interesting dialogues and storys

Submitted

This game was nice. I liked the stories of each of the characters. The fact I also was able to hand out wrong items is really interesting, especially because it triggered additional dialogue. The AI voices are a little distracting, but the game overall was enjoyable to play :D

There is normally at least one game per jam that hits me emotionally.
I was expecting it to be this one but the AI voices were just too distracting.
Appreciate you making a game this original though.

I liked the concept, but the AI voiceover was off-putting and incongruent with the emotional stories and tone. Better off with just text and less of it perhaps. Good connection with the theme (see what I did there!). Perhaps a bit too simple and easy, needs some more challenging items perhaps. Otherwise good jamming!

I like the stories being connected, but I think it's just hard to get around the AI use of the art

I like the concept of this game, a nice, unique take on Connections.  Unfortunately, I think the game suffers for being so AI-forward.  I feel like AI can be nice on occasion to fill a skill gap when you're working on a game, but reaching out in the Jam forums could be a good way to fill the gap as well, while also giving opportunities to artists looking to participate.
