I see the inspiration in Reigns/Lapse. Nicely implemented.

Thanks for playing! I haven't played lapse, will give it a go!

It's really cool that you did it all yourself. It's impressive. I love such games. But in this case, I'm more and more guessing, because I could not understand the rules. Good job!

Thanks for playing! 

====SPOILER ALERT====

there are no specific rules in this game at least , there are 8 endings and getting them all is supposed to give the player an idea of what is happening

I took me way too long before I even realised, that I supposed to drag the middle picture, to either side. Anyway, nice game, good job! Especially for not using any existing assets!

Developer

Yup I was thinking of making a tutorial for the game but didn't have the time

Thank you for playing!

Fun little experience. I always thought Reigns was pretty good, but haven't played it in forever. It's pretty neat to see something take on that mechanic and apply it to a unique world and story. A jam seems like the perfect place to do something like that.

Sometimes the indicators for how the influence things would be affected were a little confusing, and possibly buggy (?), as sometimes they would start floating up and down on the screen seemingly randomly. Might be helpful to code them somehow for negative and positive influence.

Ultimately this is pretty cool though. And there seems to be quite a bit of content for a jam game as well; I'll probably be coming back to see what other endings I can get. I had one ending that I absolutely loved the art for (and the art in general is quite nice), but I don't really want to spoil anything for folks who haven't played yet, since I think part of the fun is finding the endings.

Overall, great work!

Thanks for the detailed feedback! I appreciate it a lot and feels great coming from someone whose game I really like 

I noticed the indicator floating up but thought it looks whacky in a funny way and kept it, but I can see how it looks buggy :D

Oh no! My mind exploded! Nice dialogue tree game. Loved the background story and how it was presented at the start. Fit the theme well. Enjoyed playing. Great job!

Nice little game you got there!

I won, but I am not really sure how I did it :P

Can you play min and rate it too? That would be nice!
