This was a funny little game! And I liked that you could add your own events that had a chance to come up. The witnesses were funny too. My round playing kinda ended earlier than I expected, probably just down to luck? Mary got custody in this run, good for her. What a legend, working 14 jobs and buying Amazoon.

Developer

The game starts to roll a 50/50 if it's going to end or not after 5 spins so it is a lot of luck

I think that maybe... Giving the child for adoption is better ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Probably

I truly don't think there will be a better submission. Can't lie was rooting for Mary she seemed like she had her stuff together but custody went to Mr.Fish - it was for the best honestly. 

Developer

The fish will always be better than Mary.

Great concept and really fun to play. I realized this game was serious the moment I heard Gary was a Pokรฉmon card scalper. Cool game!

really liked the game, the Humour is soo good, good amount of seriousness, but there are some bugs and the audio is too damn sharp, other than that, Good Game!

AHHH I HAVE ENTOMOPHOBIA! I HOPE there aren't bugs!

Very fun presentation!  The customization and achievements and also cool additions that I didn't expect to see in a jam entry.  I wish there was a bit more to do other than spin the wheel, but the way each custody battle plays out is pretty fitting considering the subject matter.

Developer

I tried my hardest to make a lot of stuff to do but it was pretty hard with the game idea. I probably could have thought it out a little more,

Submitted

it's a shame this game is bugged because it has the PERFECT, and I mean PERFECT, amount of seriousness.

Developer

Can you please tell me in what way it's bugged?

Submitted(+1)

I don't remember in which interaction it was, but it never ended, I could only countinue the converation, with gary gaining always 3 trust points no matter how much i skipped

A hotfix has been made

The honesty meter seems broken, because it stays on 0 even when someone gains honesty. Also it might benefit from the wheel disappearing when some witness is called, or drawing the witness in front of the wheel, because this way you canโ€™t see most of them.

I have issued a hotfix!

Yo, you need any help with the Achivments™?
