The English language lays battered and bruised on the floor. The sheer abuse it must have been wrung through to create this masterpiece is indescribable.
10/10
Fun idea, I liked how many different headlines you could make although I did find it unfortunate some of the headlines I came up with didn't get counted. Still, the ones that are there are quite funny and I quite liked the game overall!
very funny idea, i especially like the visuals and sound! feels like there are a lot of funny word combinations to discover
Great experience and executed so profesionally!
Had to use walkthrough to get all the endings, and the game didn't count some of my headlines, a bit hard to get all the endings on your own though :)
The artwork is a masterpiece!
Very creative idea. Was presented well and liked the humour. Well done.
Really fun and creative, I enjoyed it very much. I just didn't understand how I'm supposed to pass the ending
Glad you enjoyed it! You can find the walkthrough here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-MIf6Sa7991N99oiaiapm25D6nP2ZAFtVYb0JiUWQ_0/edit?usp=sharing
Best game I have played! It's very fresh and new, I love the quirky writing and the different ending. The part where I have to censor words which changes the entire meaning behind the headline, insane. Really love it and keep up the good work! Really enjoyed this with my friends.
CREATIVITY IS THROUGH THE ROOF!!!
Very cool visuals and sound. Some phrases that make sense for me don't seem to trigger any image, maybe give a bit of feedback whether something is working or not
Bloody unparelleled aesthetic and vision right here. Great game, just wish there was more of it!
The aesthetic this game gives is phenomenal. I really like the process of trying new word combinations. Overall, a very creative idea done right!
Amazing presentation, witty writing and very creative game mechanic. Great job!
I really liked the false ending that involved
redactingmyself out of a corner, haha. It seems like a really short game, but the concept was novel, the writing was cute, & the collage art panning around was really slick & striking! This is a clever one! Good work!Inncredible presentation, and amusing experience! Greeat job
Really great aesthetic and execution. Surprisingly difficult to figure out the answers too, I was impressed how many different sentences could be created.
The newspaper moving around + music is just amazingly done, hands down best presentation in a game so far.
Super well done game. Felt very complete for a game jam game!
Incredible art and sound with a super clever use of the theme and game mechanics. I love how it can both be a puzzle and just a good time making funny sentences while playing censor. The newspaper zooming around feels so natural and clean.
Fantastic graphics, and it's really a whole lot of fun to censor the words and change the whole meaning.
I love creating fake news :D. Very interesting concept!
This is so polished and such a good game concept.
