I really liked the graphic style and the accessibility of the game. At first I got confused by the continuous instructions but over time got to play well. I liked the experience. Great work.

Thank you! The instruction should be more clear with graphics but we ran out of time at last.

 Interesting game and concept. Liked the art and mood, including the nice music. However when it comes to gameplay the lack complexity is noticeable! I think you'd need at least a few other factors like personal preferences, as well as a soft fail state (like percentage of inbred-ness vs happiness of the couples). You could also play around with divorce rate, if you keep matching far removed people that don't like each other.

Nice take on the theme, also good job on making it a whole experience with menu and options.

Developer

Thank you! I like the idea about how much they appreciated that makes the player can measure how good they are matching. we will consider updating those continue after the game jam!
