How does your game fit the theme?
When you play an online multiplayer game, you don't tend to think about all the hard work that the server has to do. Now you play as the server instead of as the player.

a little bit short but realy fun

Played on stream! See the video for timestamp.

Good idea and pretty fun for the short length of the game. As others have said randomizing requests would be a good idea for a future improvement.

Submitted

Really cool idea! Would have been nice for it to be a little longer, maybe you could randomised/procedural requests in the future to really flesh it out. Good job :)

Submitted

Really like the concept of this! Had some fun despite it being pretty short. Like others have suggested, randomized requests would be cool.

Submitted

Really like this concept! Would love if there were more levels and randomized requests from the players - overall great job!

This is really interesting! One thing is that scrolling on the textbox is a little too fast for me and causes the text to fly around (though it might just be my computer). Reminds me of papers please in a way. Definitely one of the more unique theme interpretations. It would be fun to see some sfx for button clicks or some sort of audio to accompany the game since it's mainly text based, so that would give it a more tactile feel; maybe also a time limit as well; however, overall, this is a great start!

Intesting concept, though more levels would of been aperiated, and maybe a time limit

Submitted

This is an awesome idea.  If you want to expand on this, randomized requests would be great, and a timer for each request because an online server can't lag out and stall for one request.  And if you make a mistake, not an insta-fail.  It reminds of papers please, so that's where I'm coming from with the recommendations.

Cool idea, but the interface could use some work

Submitted

Not bad! I like the concept!

Nice foundation for an interesting game :v

Wow! Really really unique concept, and as a software engineer, i found both the hilarity of the premise and the content being posted just off the API Request Parameters! Such a polished submission!

Please do checkout our little game too

Cool concept! The chat was pretty funny. Nice job for the 48 hours!
