The web version is buggy.

Very concise and cute experience! A lot of people went abstract rather than literal with the theme this year so I give it a pass. Great first game!

Submitted

Well i can't figure out how this game fits the theme. Although game is good.

Submitted

The artwork was great, but the game moved a bit fast. A solid idea though, unfortunately, it seems to be boiled down to choose the better of the two options as quickly as possible, because the alien's patience runs down so fast otherwise.

Submitted

Not bad

The idea is very cool, but not very well executed, everything was very fast, you can't even distinguish the symbols so fast that you have to act, it is in the theme OUT OF CONTROL, but it was also out of concept. Still, great work! The arts were really cool and the sound combined a lot, really fun! Well polished, you can do something cool!

Loved the bold choice of brush for the art. The gameplay was weird and confusing,  like trying to communicate with an alien when you don't speak the same language. I think I won though?

Great for a first jam entry, keep it up!

Submitted

The presentation was actually incredible. I really liked this weird art style. Good job.

Submitted

I really liked the art style, and the creativity of the theme. The only thing I think should be different, is some kind of change to let me see more easily the alien expressions, that are very funny.

Submitted

Very fun idea! So original!! Well done!

Submitted

You've created a very unique and good looking artwork. The game's concept is also really special and cool. I'd love the ability to re-see the conversation rules and I'm sad that after failing a few times I couldn't fail due to awkwardness so the game became much easier. 

Submitted

The art is very unique and fascinating. Nice job!

Submitted

Art is prety lovely, concept is attractive, I think it mostly lacks a bit of feedback clarity! Kickass first submission though.

Submitted

The concept is really strong, it made me want to play the game.

The sounds and looks are top notch, the alien noises made me laugh!

It was really hard to know if i was progressing towards the goal or not but that might be the point haha.

Submitted

Cute. I love the art and concept... I think. I got the impression that as long as I could keep acting like I understood then I could make it through any alien conversation.... too real.

Submitted(+1)

Found the reactions of the alien funny, and the idea is great! I would recommend for after the game jam is over, you should add a lot more options for conversations and add a lot more varied reactions. 

Submitted

Cool idea! I loved the artwork on this one :) Especially the reveal, that the astronaut themself isn't human either :D

Submitted

Neat idea, the art is really cool

Submitted

I loved the idea!

Submitted

What a unique idea :) loved it
