Cute concept
Really cool concept, but sometimes there are rounds where both people seem to violate the preconditioned rules, tho I might be missing something.
Hey Purple, yes that does happen, and there's a "Wait" (Space) option so you don't follow either of them!
oh i didn't notice that, really cool game in that case
This is such an underrated entry. The concept is so simple but maybe the most engaging I've seen in the jam so far. Very proud of my 31 score.
Great work!
This is great! The timing is perfect, the characters look interesting, the music is great and so are the sound effects. Well done. No notes. Super fun
Got a high score of 22, I don't know if that's good or bad lol
Anyway, this is the kind of game idea I wish to have all the time. It's super simple, but it's also so intuitive and fun. Great job!
Oh wow. The music and sound are perfect. Very simple yet effective idea.
Love how the more the stages progress, the more conditions you have to remember. Nice job! Really enjoyed this!
Simple but engaging! When I realised it adds to the rule instead of replacing it I got more fired up lol.
I love the incremental aspect so much! It's such an amazing game; in my opinion, it's the reverse of the theme XD. Good game though; I quite enjoyed it!
died round 2 following the red pants bc both had red pants lol clever twist, the wisdom is a warning not a pick. tense little memory game once it clicks, nice job
Very fun little game, I enjoyed trying to remember multiple things and not lose out on time! Sound design was great, it ran really well and was fun!
Such a simple but hard mechanic at the same time. At first it seems simple but when you have to remember 4 things at once and the timer start to run out it becomes pretty intense. Really liked this little challenge in the game.
The art style is awesome . It really makes the clothes on the characters stand out . Well done on the game!
Very well done, fits the theme really well, and is just a polished game good job
Oh this is actually so fun and so well-done! This is such a small thing but I love how the text bobs up and down in a wave; it's indicative of how much attention to detail there was. Good job!
High score 18...
I love a good memory game-- will be back to play again and rate for sure! I am already so curious where this concept could go given more time. It's like a more... practical? version of Simon, and I have to be run through every fact looking at each quality of people. Simple idea executed well!
Thank you! I'm proud that I was able to avoid scope creep this time around and it keep it simple, haha!
