this is a great game concept but has very dry gameplay if you can even call it that. The art looks bad it has no background and no objective. This game just needs more time if the oven.

You're absolutely right, Jakerbaker! I made this game in one hour: the last hour before it was due. I'm not going to spend longer on it because it is a bad concept I made as a joke. If you are interested, my other games have good or at least decent sprite-work and gameplay.

A few months ago, my mother became paralyzed. Hoping to cheer her up, I showed her this game. She started convulsing, out of joy I bet, after only playing one round. The doctors now say she is in a better place, and I know that it is because of this game. Thanks to Peas N Carrots for such an awesome find!

I would like to say that I enjoyed your game, but I don't even know if "game" is a good word to describe it. It really felt like a different experience entirely compared to other games: like a perfect blend of the creativity often found in indie titles and the production quality seen in big studio triple A games. And the story - don't even get me started. It really made chills run up my spine. The chills were so strong that my spine shattered, and I'm now paralyzed in all four limbs.
