Checked your game and it was quite challenging I must admit, but played through it! Good job on making it and for being a solo indie dev it is impressive. Not everyday you also see people interested in making puzzle games, so it's always a nice and refreshing change! Congrats on making a game for a jam!
Wow the writing was top notch, no- more like the idea of top notch... the very essence of perfection 👏👏👏 no but I do like this writing style a lot. It reminded me a lot of Disco Elysium x cosmic horror (or in this case cosmic Weird) style writing. The concept of the Weird is so interesting too. And wow BING BONG
One of the most original ideas I've seen in this jam from the art to the lore. I've rated your game! Please take a look at my team's as well :) /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4937629
Haha, our team definitely are fans of Disco Elysium, so it's a great spot. Just checked your submission and it's genuinely fantastic, incredibly creative and really engaging. Really amazing job in such a short amount of time, it probably is one of my favourite uploads this game jam. I don't know if anyone in your team watched Severance, but it reminded me slightly of the job that the characters were doing there. Once again, congratulations on completing the game - incredible results.
Amazing. Yeah I could just hear the voice actors in my head while reading your narrative haha.
It was only after making the game did one of my teammates point out how similar it is to Severance. I've actually never seen it so I had no idea we were drawing these parallels with both their work and also what the numbers represent. But he did sneak in a reference to Severance in the corner :)
Thanks again for your thoughtful and kind review!
I have been fan of management/cooking games since I was a kid (a small guilty pleasure of mine), so this was nice, however definitely feedback that other reviewers have given will be really good to listen to, so for the next jam you can get even better. Still, I do want to congratulate on creating the game for the jam!
I found your art very charming and it was a really cute (is that even correct word to use what is meant to describe a mental hospital patient?) game, where I did feel like a smartass getting another character pick up item (not spoiling for others who find this thread.) Congratulations on making a game, it definitely deserves a celebration!
Definitely interesting way of an attempt to work with the theme of this jam. I have enjoyed a bit of time I spent there and I liked also the fact you have lettered different endings, so people can retry and get some more. Great effort for making it solo and congratulations on finishing a game for the jam!
