Really interesting story. I included it in my Mini Jam 107 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Dialogue can be a bit unsubtle at times, especially when paired with the heavy themes, but it isn't a big problem. The gravity bar and the girl moving closer to you being tied to the same distance on screen is a genuinely genius way of portraying it, but I wonder if you needed the bar at all? Just have the warning box and her physical distance. Still a very good game though, well done!
This is hilarious!
it's more fun than i thought before i played this! it's sad that i only can kill the girl, but taking out it, the game is fun haha.
Enjoyment: Dialogue made me giggle. Seems that girl didn't understand the gravity of the situation.
Concept: Unique idea for the jam.
Presentation: Cool style I had enjoyment out of it.
Limitation: The use of gravity was a fun one.
The dialog is funny.
However, i tried a couple times and seems that i can not avoid her getting too close at the end—i assume i have to choose all the correct options for this to happen, right? I wish i could skip the text to try again.
We wanted to make more endings, but we ran out of time (I'll add a warning in the game description.)
My friend tried to implement a option to skip the dialog, but a bug made some dialog loop.
Thanks for the feedback!
I think I got to an ending; things just stopped happening after Fred turned into a black hole. I enjoyed the dialogue and the twist with the goal of pushing people away, though it feels like the latter could have been a bit more refined. Also, some music would have been nice.
Yeah, we would have liked to add more mechanics and some alternate endings to make the game whole, but we ran out of time.
Thanks for the feedback!
I forgot it was an anti-date sim and got a creepy ending ;) It was fun. Good job!
(Thanks for fixing the game)
I'm not sure, but I can't load the game further than just the sound of the waves ;^;
Sorry about that, it should be fixed now.
what's the game exactly? Wave sounds
If you had trouble launching the game, it should be fixed now.
