Love the art style

Despite the many bugs I encountered in my playthrough, namely the retry button on the game over screen not working sometimes and getting fired out of seemingly nowhere, I enjoyed the art and charm of this game. The dialogue is pretty funny and the visuals are pleasant to look at. The sound is quite loud at a low volume, so maybe that could be lowered a little, but this game seems very promising!

That was amazing, congrats ! I really like the idea to run between the levels ! It could totally be developed in a larger game ahah

You're probably already aware that the progression is bugged. Sometimes the knight doesn't even arrive and you get fired. Sometimes when you lose, the replay button doesn't work, but the space button is still being displayed, etc.

Besides that... This is amazing! One of our initial game ideas was to have you play as an NPC, but we couldn't figure out how to construct a game like that. This is a such cool way to approach it. It says a lot about the quality of your writing that I kept retrying the game even despite the bugs. I was more tempted to lose on purpose just so I could annoy the knight. :D

P.S. the presentation is flawless, art + sound. Well done! I hope you expand it.

I like the idea, but sometimes i dont really know why i was fired. I understand its a bug, but yeah

Wow, I'm quite impressed here! I liked how you thought of everything at the same time and that every point was really finely tuned: music, dialogue, visuals ... I had a good laugh with the music when you loose and the mini-game between levels.  Like others, I just had a few problems with the dialogue selection and the restart button not working. Would have love to have more gameplay aswell but When a game is this well finished, you obviously want more... and then you remember that 48 hours is a really short time ;). I don't usually say that, but hats off to you! 

I laughed out loud in the loading sequence where you have to run fester than the knight. It was sometimes hard to tell which was the correct answer, not sure if getting insulted by the knight was normal or if there was a better answer. I got a bug on my second playthrough that made me lose before the knight arrived and then the game was unresponsive. The best take on the idea of playing an NPC i've seen so far !

One of the strongest I've played from the jam, especially in the "you're the NPC" genre. A really impressive experience for the 48 hour time limit.

Pretty cool game! The art was neat, and the dialogs really fun to read. ^^

I sometime had some issues where it didn't seem that the option on which I clicked was actually the one selected (like it answered from another one). But it didn't seem to have too much impact on success, so it's fine. :) I like the variety of tasks, between cleaning up, disguising, even a mini-game between levels. There's a lot of creativity everywhere, and on top of that the game offer glimpses of a neat universe.

You did an amazing job on this game. Congrats!

I love the art as well as the overall idea. The added variety in a form of a NPC running minigame (rapid space bar pressing) was also cool.

Very fun adventure, love how the game thematizes capitalism. Great artwork, music and storytelling of course. Only thing is that i dont even know why i was fired haha :D

I just wanted to share my eggs, but noooo the knight didn't want them, but I tried.... Plus in the end when i gave him eggs it didn't even matter..

Really good fun! We had the same idea, but I love your execution of it: the racing-the-adventurer-to-the-quest mechanic was very funny and enjoyable, and the writing was really well done!

This is so fun! I really love how you executed the concept and how fun it was to try again doing different things each run just to see what happens. Art is superb as well

Love how charming this game is! I did find myself wondering how good of a job I was doing (or if I was changing the outcome at all), since I didn’t feel too much feedback from the game other than the Hero’s responses. Not sure how bad I was being at my job by leaning on the eggs so much (but who wouldn’t lean on the egg talk?) Very humorous submission, had a great time, great work!

Great game! I loved the dialogue options, and had a hard time resisting some of the funnier ones. I came across a few bugs with the restart button and the knight showing up instantly, but this was hilarious to play overall.

The art in this looks so good.  

And there were lots of good dialogue options.
Just a shame picking them means having to restart the game.

Not sure if I'm right, but getting extra time by mashing Space during loading was a nice touch.

There's some holes in the retry coding (it would fail me the instant the prep time was up).
But other than that, a very fun and good looking entry.

The art is AMAZING! Really nice job.

The artwork alone is absolutely stunning for a 48-hour jam. I suspect we'll see a lot of people interpret the theme with "playing as an NPC", but framing it as an agency was a fun framing device and an inspired touch. Rushing during the loading screen was charming, and the chicken was a nice continuous thread.

If the game got more polish, I would like to see stronger player feedback. The hero's arrival always felt sudden. I eventually wondered if the music kicking in was some sort of cue, but it was too abstract to be sure. Consider adding footsteps or some visual element foreboding his entrance.

Similarly, I struggled to understand how well I was doing. I eventually concluded that the hero became purple when I picked the right choices and red/orange when messing up, but I feel that's not strong communication. His dialogue helps, but it's still hard to know when you do well because an adventure has all sorts of ups and downs. I felt a little caught between trying to roleplay as the NPC and figuring out how to massage the hero's ego.  

Overall, this is an amazing accomplishment. My congrats to the team. 

An incredible accomplishment in only 48 hours, the presentation, the art, the music, everything was great! I loved your take on the "quest giver" role reversal idea! Particularly a fan of having to race to an area before the hero gets there, that was hilarious, awesome work!!
