Love the narrator. I included it in my GMTK compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Words cannot describe how much I love this game, it is so clever! xD
Oh my, I don't know where to start, how to organize my toughs...
That was stellar! The humor of the narrator, the reactions of the crowd, the jokes on video games tropes while following them to the letter. Even the music theme feels like a Pixar movie or something. And the atmosphere of a theater fits so well the simple graphics of the game and brings back childhood memories...
I don't know what else to say, it blew me away!
You're too kind! And I tried to make the music as obnoxiously happy but lifeless as possible so it'd fill the space but sink into the background and not overshadow the game, haha.
I'm glad you liked it :)
This was a really charming little game! The short, self aware voiced narration and simple mechanic was entertaining, and by the end I only wished there was more to the story! The style was solid and it was one of the most genuinely funny games I've played this jam. Good job!
This is great! Really gave me some Stanley Parable vibes with the meta narrator, and it's a cool way of controlling a character. One cool thing to see might be to have the boss be another puppet you have to fight, or making the enemies attack in some way, although I definitely appreciate that this must have taking a lot of time as it is.
