Wow this was heady. Although if only that upcoming Watch Dogs game were more like it.
Glad you liked it. Maybe for the next Watchdogs :)
The story was interesting and I really liked the idea of jumping between minds. The use of emotions reminded me a little of Coloratura, one of my favourite IF games, so I enjoyed this!
Thanks for playing! I haven't heard of Coloratura (new to the medium), I'll have to check it out!
Not sure how to run the osX version… Is a file missing from the folder?
Let me take a look! (This is my first time pushing to Mac and I don't have one for testing unfortunately).
I uploaded an updated build. You should now be able to unzip the download and run the file named "MindsEdge". Fingers crossed this one works--let me know and thanks for the heads up!
A very interesting story world. Liked the mind-hopping concept and the accrual of emotions. More choices would be good but this was great for a jam.
Thanks for playing! I definitely want to expand the choices in a post-jam release. Glad you enjoyed the setting!
It was really cool to be that sort of character in a written format. I enjoyed that a lot.
I'd love to have more games like this (maybe even with a 'push x to hop mind' thing).
Cool beans
I like the idea of just pressing a simple key to hop into a mind based on context--thanks for suggestion and the feedback!
Took me a while to figure out your choices, until it clicked I thought my tablet had screwed up reading some sort of markup formatting XD.
Funnily enough, I was going to use those as a kind of markup to be parsed later but didn't get around to the implementation. I ended up deciding I still wanted some kind of punctuation for the kind of mental dialogues that were going on, so I stuck with the markup. Thanks for playing through the strange formatting, I hope you enjoyed it!
