  • It's a shame the UI scaling on this was broken making it impossible to play without zooming way out in the browser, because this is actually a really cool idea for a game and a fun take on the theme. It's an idea that does kind of lose steam after a bit, but I could definitely see it as a fun part of a larger game where you're working in a wacky doctor's office. There's also the issue that once you click on a right answer, you can spam click on it before a new one is loaded and rack up a ton of extra score. So honestly barring some pretty bad technical issues, I'd say this is a cool idea that has potential to be fleshed out for sure
  • I'm using chrome and the UI was all missplaced. In fullscreen I just had a big grey face without anything to click and without fullscreen, the grey face was over a button, so I could not pick the 3rd option. The idea seems cool, but the game is unplayable.

Did you work alone, or as part of a group? (If in a group, list their names)

Unique take on the theme, but I had to play without fullscreen and set my scale to 100% (Instead of 150%). If not the UI elements would overlay each other.

150%:

A unique take on the theme, although I did find a bug where if I spammed the right answer I would get a lot of points.

Thank you for your feedback! I'll also look into that bug, that's weird lol

A unique and intriguing mechanic. Kind of like gamified captcha!

Developer

Wow, thank you! :)

Cool take on the theme, cool base mechanic, maybe make it more difficult, or add more mechanics if you can. Nice game though!

Developer

Thank you! This is my first submission to a jam (and my first "complete" game in general) so I struggled trying to finish it before the end. In the future I'll definetly think about how to improve it :)

Fun times. Maybe make the handwriting even more difficult to read as you go on.

Developer

Thank you! I'll definetly think about it

I like the idea. I could totally see this being expanded upon in a really big pharmacy type game

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I considered it as a finished game (maybe I'll add some extra medicines in the future) but your input is cool and I'll take it in count, thank you :)

This was a really cute idea! It was tricky to play though because the face covered the 2nd button, so I wasn't able to read it or click it at all.

Developer

Thank you! I'm so sorry you had this problem, I tried to play it again on my browser and everything seems fine, I'll surely check the problem out tho. Thank you for your feedback :)

What a idea for a game! With the way you nailed the doctor's handwriting you could definitely become a doctor :D

Thank you so much for your feedback! Haha at least if game developing goes bad I know what to do next :)
