It looks really cool. The name sounds cool: Lying Aliens

Submitted

The aliens look so cute, so I didn't want to reject any haha
And the concept for the game is really nice :D
There were sound effects, but I didn't hear any music, which could have made the game a bit more immersive. But apart from that, the game was pretty cozy and enjoyable, congrats!

Here's your 20th rating :>

The art style is so cute!!! It feels like a Papers, Please-style game, but a much cuter version XD

It’s surprisingly addictive too! There weren’t enough aliens, I wanted MORE XDDD

I’m not sure if this is a bug or if we’re actually supposed to use it to uncover more clues, but I noticed something interesting: if you keep clicking the question button while an alien is still in the process of sitting down, their answer can change.

Either way, it was a really fun game!!! I really enjoyed the concept and had a great time playing it :D

the game was fun to play and kinda like the art style and mostly it kept me hooked 
great work :))

Pretty fun papers-please like game! The art is quite charming and the gameplay is simple but quite engaging. Though I would've loved to see a more direct consequence of my wrongdoings (or maybe a timer would also make the game more intense). The sound effects are quite simple but effective though I wish there were some sort of music or ambience. (or perhaps silly alien noises when they come in xD). Overall, this was simple but quite fun! There's some minor things to improve, but it was a fun experience, great work!

Random critique but I felt like the font was hard to read. I like the art though

Developer

Great use of the theme. I have to say the artwork you drew is super original. If I had to give any advice, I'd add a semi-transparent box under the text for our dear alien customers, to make their responses easier to read.

thanks for the feedback! glad u loved the artwork, it was actually my first time using vector art since i usually go pixel

Fun game, I enjoyed your UI feel. I'd recommend maybe putting the chat lower or in a chat box so it doesn't clash with the background when reading. But other than that great work!

Fun little game, reminds me of old flash games from back in the day

Developer

thanks! I’m happy it reminds you of old flash games

Simple game, that has a good backbone on it. Played untill the very end and made no mistakes.

I had sometimes troubles with buttons not responding, but evrything worked as it should. Very simple nice graphics.

Well done!

thank you! this was my first game jam and my first time using vector art; usually i go pixel but wanted to try something new. good job for getting no mistakes!

Submitted(+1)

For your first jam is it very impressive, aswel I also am more into pixel art and also tried vector art. you did very good using simple shapes for it!

Developer

thanks!

I played games like these before. I love that your not only comparing information but instead your given hints about what their claim is. Makes checking take a little more effort but still not so bad. Fun game

Developer(+1)

thanks! i found that having it as hints makes it suit the theme more and makes the player put in more effort. so happy that you enjoyed it!

loved the various designs of the aliens. I wish there was more real time feedback if you were correct in letting them in or not, I rejected a few and the noise made me think I got it wrong, but I think that was just the noise for rejection not being incorrect.

Developer(+1)

thanks for the feedback! I’ll make sure to add more real time feedback in future games and yes; the sound on the reject button isn’t just the sound effect not being incorrect or not.
