WOW I'm not sure what to say about the submission, even from the very beginning the bizarre singing overdubbed with the other part like that. Not even sure if it was a bug or intended, but I thought it was...awesome nonetheless. I think just throughout this whole game the story is very interesting, it has great humor and the flow of the game is very good - overall, nice job on this submission!

Epic!!! I don't think is easy to laugh at sad topics but you nailed it guys!!! Amazing storytelling,  absurdity very well put together in every step, and I enjoyed the songs very much!!!

Congrats on a good job and I am pretty sure one of the most (if not THE most) creative interpretation of the jam theme.

What the h...? I don't knwo if I must smile or cry!

Very rare experience, indeed.

PS: what kind of pill did you take before making this game? lol!

This game is absolutely insane; I am at a loss, you might say. I am baffled, confused, perplexed, bewildered, puzzled, and almost certainly discombobulated. The songs have thrown me off guard, to say the least. It was fun.

At first I read this as "Texas", and that would have made perfect sense. I thought this was so funny! Absolutely fantastic job, 5's all around for me!

I don't think you're supposed to upload AAA games to a game jam you bunch of try-hards.

Seriously tho, had a blast with the songs and you guys obviously had a lot fun working on it. GJ

I listened to the whole intro song it was the best thing I've ever heard. Very deep, very inspiration. Two amazing voices :O

I don't know if I've ever enjoyed a game from a game jam as much as this. "Hey my guy, your wife is gonna die" hahahaha that was the best line ever. Bro this game better win

I love the intro song!
