Music was nice!

This is an interesting idea; the use of a text-based story worked well with the theme, and I liked the concept. Unfortunately, I was unable to get past the first decision, which only gave me one choice to click. I see the potential though; keep up the good work!

Nice Idea!

It was pretty interesting. The sounds are a bit loud and weird but other than that I would say you did a great job.

Congrats for the entry!

I would love to have you playing mine too, if you don't mind of course! ^_^

Always delighted to see a text based adventure game as I love a good story. Interesting story that fits well with the theme. Well done!

I honestly didn't expect the game to be purely a story where you have to choose options, and I was waiting for the gameplay to start... and then they asked me if I supported the revelion or the king's...I think I ended up supporting the revelion ... and, obviously, it wasn't real, so I lose... so I played it again to find the other ending but only one option appears... so I couldn't :(

But the game itself is pretty good, I mean, if I had known from the beginning that it was a story game maybe I would have had more fun, but that's fine. But it's not your fault, it's mine, because I went straight to the download without seeing the screenshots, so don't worry.

Seems like people are enjoying the game, I had a less fun time because I could only see one "YES" button and then the story ended.

Nice game, Nice Idea

I also had a bit of an issue with the typing sound, but I enjoyed your storytelling and the twists it had. When prompted, "Is it real?" and I answered "No" almost every time, it was fun to see the responses you came up with and how the story turned.

Nice game! I liked the story and the whole idea was great!

The only criticismI have is that the typing sound is a little annoying.

Good job on that narative!

cool game with narrative. would be more engaging there were like some kind of an effect like maybe a shakin screen while in fighting scenario.

I'm not sure if understand how the game works but I couldn't manage to land on the page in the screenshots. One suggestion would be to get rid of letter sounds. Good job!

Cool to see a narrative game! Would be nice to have more dynamic responses to spice things up! Good stuff!

Pretty interesting game! It fits the Jam Theme really good as well :)

One suggestion I might say is that you could explain the info in the 
bottom left. They are just there without any function, at least I didn't
find any. Also, you could make the text that you don't need anymore
just disappear, it's weird if it just scrolls up like an endless text.

Other than that, really cool game, nice creative take on the theme, 
and good job creating such a big story :D

There is a little too much text though, and it would require more interactions with the player to keep him awake.

I love the idea though ! It would be awesome to further develop it with multiple stories depending on your choices !

Good job ! :D

"The author of this game won't have time to make a long story with only one person and 7 days" lol

Great story!! I think it fits the theme really well!! the music is really good too... I enjoyed playing this game!! Well done ^^b

Submitted(+1)

The idea is definitely there, needs more interaction for the player, would love to see this develop even further! Good job

Submitted(+1)

That was a very interesting game! I can totally see it being a full on fleshes out story with the given time for the development!

My only issue is that the audio of the letters appearing was a little bit annoying after a while.

But still, awesome job!!

In my opinion is too much text but I like the idea.
