How does your game fit the theme?
An alien is on a date trying to be calm and not freak out his human date. Can the alien remember to breathe and maintain eye contact while also choosing the right dialogue options?

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
We used a plugin for dialogue that we heavily customized and some icons. Everything else we wrote and created from scratch, including the art.

Damn, being human is so difficult! Super fun concept, and perfectly implemented, took me a whole date round to realise about the eyes mechanics, at first didn´t understood why my date didn't like me hahha. Great work!

i cant believe my leader commissioned a simulator for a million units, and THIS one is better???

I’m so used to it I forgot how hard it is to be human… Eeerrr, I mean, great, one at a time, to world’s domination! … Damn, I shouldn’t have said that either, right?

More seriously, I loved the atmosphere, obviously it was tough to do all of this on the first run, but then the second run was super easy cause I knew what answer to give and it was super appreciable. Thanks!

This is super creative and unique, well done on your entry!

I really enjoyed the gameplay, it was a focused idea and executed well.
Thank you for the option to skip the auto-submit and press W to progress the dialogue, I appreciate that control and player agency over the gameplay!
It was really fun trying to manage the eyes, breathing and still read through the dialogue.
Well done on the art style, it's great! The dialogue is funny and engaging.

Great work overall! :D

Thank you for building a useful simulator for us aliens, human mating rituals are notoriously hard for our kind to understand. Fun and educational!

This was really fun and charming, the multitasking to seem like a human just felt right. good job!

I loved the game design! Having to manage breathing, where your eyes are, and the dialogue at the same time was actually quite the test. Simple, yet challenging. Made me start consciously breathing and blinking and talking haha!

Submitted

The dialog options are really funny, you have to be careful not to leak your plans for world domination, but rather talk about your hobby of baking cookies. The game is funny and positively stressful at the same time. The game is a little lacking in sound and graphics, but overall I really like it ^^

Submitted

I feel like the game lacked sound effects which could have been cool for when you're eyes are getting to low or high or when you forgot to breathe for too long. Also there was a lot of darting eyes around the screen with four ui elements to manage which is exhausting for the eyes. But the art was nice and I had fun so good job overall.
