In what way does your game fit the theme?
You play as Detective Sloppy and try to find your friend! Ehm.. How did he look again? People in town should remember your friend right? Ask around then! Hopefully your friend doesn't notice you don't remember him. I wish you good Luck. You will need it.
(Try to unite with your friend to get Stronger Together!)
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All the Code, Art and most of the Sounds were made by me. The music can be found here: https://opengameart.org/content/generic-8-bit-jrpg-soundtrack.

This was a really cool game. I'd love more levels, maybe ones involving catching criminals or something instead of reminding me of my real life. lol
Really cool game. Want to play more. Would love to see more levels, "Have you seen my dog?"
Great little game with a charming aesthetic! Would love to see if you manage to find more usage for the core mechanic and expand further. I think the procedural character generation could be tweaked a bit, especially on the dialogues part as sometimes I would end with a seed where nobody would give me a valuable clue, but otherwise quite impressive this was put together in a week. Good job!
Overall a good and well made jam game. A little difficult to find my friend but I had fun trying.
Really cool game, more levels and more variation to the characters would of been great. Still really fun, took a while to learn the controls though :). Good job overall!

Guess who the video game. I loved it. Dont really have much to offer for improvements. Would be great to have different levels and more varied characters.
Pretty nice! I had a lot of fun playing this, at first I didn't actually know how to use all the mechanics and I had to remember all the information in my head and it was quite challenging, but when I discovered I could write it down I kept remembering it, you could implement an easy mode with the pictures and a hard one just with your memory! Also something funny happened to me, in one of my playthroughs the first dude I asked information about turned out to be my friend. This is my finding the friend speedrun (bad ending)! 7 seconds, let's see who beats it!
This is one of the games I enjoyed the most so far, keep un the good work! Also if you don't mind check out my game too!
Great presentation and idea, I like this despite not being very good at the whole detective thing.
Cool idea! felt bad for the friend ha
Music fits and i like the art style, congrats on the submission!
It funny game with a good art style) I haven't played such games in years, and this is a good project, I liked it!
Will be grateful if you play my game:)
Great game! though im pretty sure for my first run my friend didnt spawn, I had a good idea of what they looked like but no one matched. My next run everything went great :)
Cool game! The graphics were simple and charming! The UI and thumbnail especially were very clean. I also appreciated the touch of having the guess reference sheet, definitely helped me want to continue playing the game.
Are you the one who uploaded that victory sound to freesound.org? If so I actually have used it in one of my games before, small world!
Only issue is I don't see how this fits the theme, the description doesn't help much either.
Overall fun little game tho!
Amazing game. One of the most unique games I've played this jam.
That was a really fun game!
Couldn't find my friend, but it was still fun enough to make me stay and search for 10+ minutes.
Well done!
Nice one! Had fun playing ;)
I have to congratulate you! Making all the sound and art is very impressive, the game is very fun and innovative as well, great job! Cheers!
This game is amazing! It seems like one where you would come back to and play every once in a while and I liked how you need to try to remember what other people tell you to find out who your friend is. I have a few things to say.
-The main menu graphics are amazing, maybe make the buttons a little more animated next time though
-The grass looks a bit bland, maybe scatter a few blades of it around the map
-I really liked the SFX and music, they were both pretty solid
-The game page looked really nice, it really fit the style of the game!
Overall, I really liked the game. I'd say you have a good chance at getting a high ranking with enough ratings :)
Weird having a game give me a sense of amnesia, never had that before. Really nice mechanics, and a lot of replayability. I think you've got the foundation for a fun little project here that shows a lot of promise.
Incredible job man ! The game works so well as intended, noticed that sometimes the friend won't spawn tho, but overall, best one i've seen so far
