I was intrigued by all the possibilities! I too am curious as to what could happen next on each branch. (And given that there are mutually exclusive paths, finding out what's really happening in the story.) Good job and thanks for creating this game!
Thank you!! I'm glad it was intriguing!
I love it when concepts are simple. The fact that you can delete the message after you've recorded it, but also that you can just re-record it after you've reached the beep sound, is a clever way of implementing the "start again" in the logic of storytelling. It's true that we'd like to know more about this lady and her whims, but that's a sign of a job well done!
Thanks, glad you liked it! (I wanted to implement "replay your message" too, to see everything in one block, but ran out of time....)
I like the tone of this. Reminds me of when I try not to ramble when unexpectedly presented with an answering machine (although hopefully I don't go off in such odd tangents!) Also the nice touch of if you continue to be indecisive. I wish there were some follow up calls so you could learn more about what might be going on with the whole situation, but given this is a 4 hour project I can understand the need to keep it short :)
Yeah, it was hard to develop a story with such a small project—follow-up calls is a good idea for later, though. Glad you liked it, and thanks for sharing your thoughts!
