This was really neat to see! Encouraging and inspiring (with the depth and the time you had)! A really sweet story making a really nice experience overall! I love what you did with this limited art to elevate it by making everything follow the same sort of style and explaining the difference between the characters personalities alone with little tweaks to the same art blueprint. Idk if that makes sense but I really enjoyed it, it was sweet! :P Thanks for making it!
PSHAW!
played on stream! I like the characters!
this is a really good story game and i cant help but theorise that maybe the countdown doesnt actuall end everything and psy just loops back. the art is phenomenal and aaryn crying on my shoulder got me in my feels. really good game especially for the time crunch!
Usually not a fan of sotry based games, but im really impressed at how much you were able to pull of in just 4 days :D
That's a very profound story for such a short time, very nice focus on narrative :D
I really love the atmosphere and the art, the dialogue and interactions really reminded me of undertale, awesome work!
It's soo good!! the story is really captivating. the art is great too. Welldone Guys!!
Very nice, I really liked how all of the characters personalities came through in their dialogue! You did a solid job writing them, and giving different dialogue trees. The particles in the sky and colour palette also really helped set the tone.
The amount of content you built in 4 days in insane, the art is very cool and I loved how you used to color to reflect the background of the story. The music also fits the theme well.
And I loved the story. What an experience!
Nice story based rpg game! Reminds me quite a bit of UnderTale form the art style. The sound track and SFX used is also very immersive! Great work!
A lot of smart, fun one liners. A silly yet sad little game that I very much enjoyed
the melonchony and gloom in this one goes hard . loved the "2+2=5" society is spreading misimformation. well thought dialogues.
Loove the narrative and absurd nature of everything that’s going on. I’m a sucker for melancholy, that ending was great :)
And w floofles
A silly little game. I really enjoyed the writing, lots of good lines. Hell yeah to doing crimes!
2 + 2 = 5
Society has truly fallen
Damn the story is cool and the pixel art is well done.
Beautiful absurdism at its best
Such a cute little game with brilliant writing, huge fan. Lovely ending. Ambitious for a gamejam!
Your writing is so funny. You nailed that Earthbound/Undertale style. I liked the art style as well!
The conversations and observations were really funny! This game is great I love a good narrative story! (floofle! <3)
