this was lovely, I enjoyed it a lot! I just couldn’t figure out the “loading bar” part without reading the comments here, I think it was a bit too cryptic. it really clicked with me when I did it, but there’s no way I would have figured it out by myself without more hints from the game. nice song and very cool concept!
cute game, took me a moment to realise it was more than a snake but look, depression is my weak point, ofc im gonna like it :)
I wouldn't have passed the game if it wasn't for you reply to pupiw, but I still like what you did with this, which is, if I understand correctly, approaching the jam theme mechanically (where the entire game is an aberration itself)
nice
Thank you for playing Dear Television. I am glad you thought it was nice. Post jam, I have decided to tone down the aberration a bit (nicer colors + lesser noise) since I asked people and they said that they found it very jarring to look at.
The description says I’ll know when I reach the end, but I keep getting stuck after finish the snake game. Is there anything after it that I’m missing?
Since you were a loading bar. You need to align yourself back like how it was before. If you don't align yourself, it will take a few minutes to go to the next level. If you eat all the squares, you'll grow and become a bigger loading bar. Now if you align yourself to the bottom, and move right (indicated by the "connection found" msg / sound queue, you will go to the next level after 3 seconds.
lmk if this makes sense. Thank you for playing.
