A nice simple game with questions that made me wonder every time. I'm not much of a trivia person though, so i get most questions wrong, lol. I think there needs to be more questions, also maybe power ups (example: remove 2 incorrect questions, double points, etc) will make it more interesting too

Nice clean game, good questions, very good job!

More questions please, and preferably ones I can answer :-)

Not only were the questions fun but the game itself is pretty clean. Nice job!

This was great! Fun questions and the short time limit made me panic guess which was very enjoyable. Great job :)

This is really fun. Liked the question in my run-through that had the sliding scale in particular - very nice implementation to show how far away your answer is.

I feel dumb now and I love it xD. Funny questions paired with a funny soundtrack. Also the questions ask fit the theme very nicely. I have to admit I had more fun than I thought.  This could easily translate into a fun party game with friends I can imagine.

Fun questions - definitely had me chuckling to learn of some of these comparisons, and very slick interface - had Jackbox vibes, and the different types of questions (e.g. sliders) made it a bit more interesting to interact with. The biggest improvement would be to avoid repeat questions on subsequent playthroughs (as much as feasible).

I like the presentation of the game, and its a good concept for this jam. I didn't really like how some of the questions were worded though. The questions involving Usain bolt, for example, don't specify a distance, so their answer is pretty arbitrary.

I definitely underestimated how tough writing trivia questions would be, appreciate the feedback!

You're correct that was supposed to be a 100m dash but that detail got lost when writing the question. I'm awarding you 500 bonus points as compensation.

Interesting idea, but man those questions were not on my side.
