How does the game fit the theme?
This game is built around “Trust No One” for Brackeys Game Jam 2026
In each level, alien passengers make statements about where they should be placed, but some of them are lying. The player knows exactly how many liars there are, but must figure out who they are and use both the true and false statements to find the correct arrangement.

As the game progresses, even things outside the passengers themselves may become unreliable — so you really shouldn’t trust anyone. Or anything.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?

Well maybe if y'all didn't lie to me, you wouldn't end up exploding... In all seriousness, this was very fun! And the art and sfx are really cute. I could easily see myself getting addicted to this game. Good job!

Submitted

This should be more popular! I would say the sound effects were a bit overwhelming (especially the one where you're picking them up, would've been better if it's just a short sound effect instead of a full voice line), I would prefer if all of it is just gibberish. I really enjoyed that last credit scene where the developers all get their own pods!! I also didn't realise you actually get more than line of dialogue until the third level and it was not clear you're supposed to click on the dialogue box for the extra line, the controls are a little bit unclear in that sense. Other than that, this is such a charming space themed logic puzzle game, the art was cute and the music was fitting!! Good entry :)

Oh my goodness this is such a little gem of a submission!
The interpretation of the theme was perfect, the puzzles were very fun, and I loved the playful and cheerful atmosphere of this funny little game!
I managed to go up to the level where you take the icons in the settings out to use them to win but after that there wasn't a way for me to continue so I assume that was the end, though I want to believe it wasn't and I just got a bug or something.
But anyways, it was such a BLAST, I enjoyed my time so much!!

I'm really bad at logic puzzles, but I'm logical enough to see that the audio for the talking speech bubble was absolutely hilarious! The random gibberish for the audio sound effect was a really nice touch! I love how you all managed to submit this with 13 seconds before the deadline - I can imagine how stressful it must've been rushing to get the game finish lmao! I'm glad you were able to get it done with such a massive team though! Good luck on the rest of your jam and I hope you all had a lot of fun!

Such a fun game, I love it!

Really clever tutorial hook at the beginning which naturally introduced the puzzle mechanics. And the voice sound sounds super cute! Nice work!!

Submitted

Absolutely love the art and voice acting, they're so adorable! Such a fun little logic puzzle game!

I really love this game! It reminds me of those brain-teasing logic puzzles. Once you take a little time to figure out the mechanics, it becomes incredibly fun! I also really enjoyed the level that appears after the credits! The art style is adorable, too. Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much! I hope you noticed that there are still more levels after the credits level!

Submitted

The characters and their little sound effects when they talk are really cute, and the gameplay is fun too!! Since the game has quite a lot of text, I think using a clearer font and slightly larger text size would make it easier to read.

Submitted

You’ve put together a pretty nice and interesting game. Of course, you’ll have to put in some effort to figure out who’s lying, but that’s actually a good thing.

A clever idea and fun execution, I enjoyed this game.
Some critic: I think that the sound effects are overwhelming and and a little annoying, especially the part they say when you pick them up. Either go with gibberish or a real language, not both - less is more (:

There were a bunch of unexpected levels after the credits, and they fit the theme really well. Super fun!

Submitted

Cool little game about trusting or doubting the alien passengers. You really have to carefully read through the clues and lies to get through the levels. I like how they make Minion-like sounds too. I also wasn’t expecting one more round after the credits. Nice job on the game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for liking it! Actually, you can keep playing after the credits level — Camen tricked you xwx

Submitted

cute little game!

Submitted

Really solid game! I love the funny voices!

I really liked the dialogue in this game, and the logic puzzles were fun though most of them were pretty easy.

Submitted

Cool game, I like the puzzles and funny art.

The characters are really cute, and the overall atmosphere is quite nice. I also really like the multilingual support! However, it seems that starting from the second level, there are still some parts that haven’t been fully translated yet.

Developer

Yeah, the language options aren’t fully implemented yet. I mainly added the feature for one of the meta levels, where you need to select the alien language at the bottom to solve the puzzle. If I get the chance, I’d like to finish the other languages too!

What I really like:

- Very cool puzzle complexity!

- That you can click through dialogue

- Alien idle animations

- Fitting background music and alien noises!

- Different personalities with each alien

What I think could be better:

- I think the title button should just be a symbol in the top right instead of next to the reset button (as it ruins the immersion a little to have an exit button next to the try again button when you've failed a level)

- Maybe a chat log of the instructions when you skip through the dialogue too fast since each level has different challenges

Developer

Thank you so much! Your suggestion makes a lot of sense.

Submitted

Really great idea and I liked the execution, congrats!
