I have no idea how you did the effects but I'm blown away by it. Really eye catching game in all possible meanings. 

Congratulations!!

I like the idea of being the algorithm Good job !

Submitted(+1)

The idea was good but the text is way too small, had to zoom in a lot. Also the presentation is really good 👍

Submitted(+1)

Awesome idea! I struggled a bit but I feel like it was a fault of my own 😅. Evidently I'm not a very good AI

Submitted(+1)

Very creative! The cards and text were a bit small

(+1)

Very creative twist! It might have been because I'm on a smaller screen, but the UI with the video information was under my cursor and I couldn't see everything I needed to. The presentation otherwise was really clean.

Developer

That's unintended, I knew that happened during development but I didn't have time to change it

This is a very funny and cute idea. Sound effects were a big goofy but nice. The gameplay was smooth and felt good overall. A pretty solid game. Good work!

Developer

Thanks for playing and leaving a review!

Very interesting idea, I'm a dumb AI😭.

This is by far the most unexpected interpretation of the theme, i really liked that. Ui looks nice, although cards with algorithms are kinda small(with their description too) but didn't really bug me that much! 9 family guy clips/10 for me(didn't have random mobile game at the bottom so -1 for that)

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Really creative idea. GG!

Submitted(+1)

Really cool concept and presentation, but it wasn't obvious to me that I had to pick the "most correct" card instead of any card that fulfilled the conditions and the game felt super easy. Still, one of the most creatives games I've tried this jam!

Submitted(+1)

I was rather confused because nothing was quite working as expected. Only now that I'm writing this am I realizing that everything is wrong because I did the PC person thing and immediately hit full screen :D 


Turns out it makes a lot more sense when the things are where they're supposed to be. Neat concept, could see that idea developing quite a bit of complexity, given how complex those algorithms actually are.

Developer

I should probably remove the fullscreen option lol

This game is really pleasing to play, as well as the aesthetics!

What a fun idea! The best thing about it is the presentation of it. The UI is clean and the images are blurry and appealing.

However, I had no idea what I was doing initially. I thought it was a tile matching game at first, but then I read the bottom text and I started to understand it. My critique is that bottom text should be bigger and more noticeable.

Overall, good work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I'm on an average laptop so my screen resolution ain't the highest so to me it looked big, thanks for the heads-up! I'll account for that on my next games!

Submitted(+1)

Really nice concept and a good execution! The art style feels a bit "weird" but in a great way, and I liked UI navigation being same type of interaction as gameplay (dropping cards somewhere is much more fun than simple buttons). I think a nice way to expand the game would be to add more videos and variated parameters. A small nitpick of mine is the way cursor obstructed some of video's effect on my laptop. But overall nothing a tiny bit of polish couldn't fix, so doesn't affect my rating of this otherwise awesome submission.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I basically started rushing development when the jam was reaching it's end so a lot of things are broken and/or unpolished

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

This is a really cool concept and the presentation is very unique and polished. The video graphics and have a special quality to them I can't really describe, but I really like them.
The lack of music however is really noticeable though. It's the only thing holding the presentation back in my opinion. 

In addition, I'm a little confused about the gameplay: There have been situtations where multiple cards raise the same amount of video types the user wanted, with different additional additions and subtractions of other types, but I guess one is more correct than the other since it said I was wrong? I don't quite understand which cards exactly I should prioritize. Something in the description to clear this up would be nice. (Or maybe I'm dumb)

Developer

You gotta prioritize the more correct one! The video in the card is dependant on the highest property. Thanks for the review!

Submitted

Yeah, but if two of your options raise what the user wants, (or none of your options raise exactly what the user wants) how do you determine the more correct one? Does the user card's video have something to do with it?

Developer(+1)

There's no way to really determine it other than by the tooltip and/or the video in the card. No.

Submitted(+1)

Very interesting concept, simple and to the point perfect for a game jam.

Submitted(+1)

We're all skynet now.

Developer(+1)

The AI's method of fighting is not letting you touch grass lmao

Submitted(+1)

The idea is pretty cool, and the graphics are quite unique and cool XD

Submitted(+1)

Neat concept! Very Original. The game feel is really good with the high percentages I'd say and with more videos you can do so much! :D
