The right click to play flappy bird at any time mechanic is hilarious and amazing.
The best game in this jam I played so far. 5 stars in all categories. Good job, holy shit.
First thing I did was open up the Flappy Bird minigame and happen to die right when the music stopped its loop which really startled me.
After recovering from that heart attack, found the rest of the game to be the pinnacle of literature. Fantastic presentation, beautiful writing, and the music was nice too once it was done messing with me.
Overall very very cool game! Nearly as cool as Cool Ranch.
the "choose a gender" screen is honestly very cute
this is the best game. you win.
Thank you kind stranger!
Amazing. I am made whole by this incredible work of art. Jane Austen, move over.
Our goal was this game to create a renaissance for classic American literature, so glad to hear we're reaching our goal 😌
No lie, we were talking about how in X00 years this would end up in high school english literature class
Very well made. I especially like the flappy bird mechanics that combines gameplay and visual novels. Building onto this can produce some amazing visual novels, and funilly enough, this game would be a pioneer of that. Also, the 40 point ending was amazing. Cool ranch was pretty nice too. Very well made.
Thanks so much for the kind words! So glad to hear you had fun!
Wait, did they just create a visual novel with... pipes? Uhm, so I think it's brilliant, guys! We have reached the limit of human evolution! No kidding, this is a really cool project

crazy amount of content for 48 hours, I am blown away by this. Writing is also very nice!
Oh hey you did the Game Music Jam making Playdate with myself. That game was dope I was a part of the team that made Sword of the Morel if you remember the jam.
Oh wow! Yea, I remember the Berklee G/M jam and your Metroidvania entry. Small world :D
Small World indeed!
I’ll make sure to check out your game after work!
:D alright, hope you enjoy it, I am really proud of this one
So glad to hear you enjoyed the writing! Glad you had fun :D
Wow very good. This is definitely the most creative game in the Jam. I have no idea how you managed to create so much for this game!! Amazing Job!!
Thank you so much for the kind words! So glad to hear you had fun :D
I love the characterization in this game. 404 really is a great character. I don't even know how it's possible to make this in 48 hours.
Thanks! I think the two things that helped us time wise was everyone knew their role really well and were committed to it! Also my previous experience integrating yarnspinner into Unity made creating the actual Visual Novel System a lot faster and helped with narrative implementation. (Even if it was still like 7+ hours of just raw Narrative integration T_T)
Important to note those 7+ hours of yarn occurred during 12am - 7am our time 😅. You were cracked for that!
You simply just have to be built different lmao
TRUEEEEEE
Total Yarncel, Spinner Pilled and totally Visual Studio Code Core.
oh wow you really went there
veni vidi vici!
This is beautiful. Good job.
Thanks so much!
>"Cool Ranch"
>Shows nacho cheese flavored Doritos as an effect
0/10
Overall, really charming game and quite polished for a 48 hour game. Spent over 30 minutes trying to get 40 points lol
Damn… its time to wack our super duper dorito lord Manny with a stick now for making that mistake. >:[
We have to represent all nations of Dorito. Vote Cool Ranch Or Nacho Cheese below!
Bit confusing, but not bad.
full game please ! so good so perfect
Lol, maybe one day! If not Flappy bird, be sure to keep up with all of us for more games like this, and so glad to hear you had fun! :D
Beautiful visuals, lots of very well crafted dialogue. WELL DONE for 48 hours
It was a lot of work, but we had a ton of fun making it! Glad you had fun!
I laughed so hard this is gold, great work on the writing and the spritework xD
Super Duper Dorito POLL: Cool Ranch or Nacho Cheese?
Cool Ranch
Nacho Cheese
....How the heck did you write and draw all this in 48 hours.
I'm blown away by this too! Let alone building and integrating flappy bird?
Integrating the dialogue with effects and code and character movements took so long T_T but it was all worth it! LMAO (Stayed up like 7 hours just to get the other half of the script in)
CSP fringe tool on mid-complexity objects to skip line art as much as possible; limit most flats to basecolor, hot fringe, and cool shadow; LASSO FILL IS AMAZING; painting over something is faster than ctrlZ-tryagain; trust your EXP cause there's no time to look up refs or get hung up on details (I'm pretty sure I made up a lot of the muscles; I don't remember anatomy); liquify things into proportions/perspective; and finally, having friends on call to keep you company as you all suffer the consequences of your own decisions together!
I like to imagine a discord call/channel full of screaming.
While I went into GMTK alone, I usually pilot a team of 10~20 for other projects. We all love suffering from our life choices :P
