What a delightfully high-concept game! This is definitely one of the more unique entries I've seen in the jam. Congrats!

Oh, I like that this one can be seen as encouraging art and drawing. Something I always think needs more support and you've inspired that in such a creative way!

I am really happy I gave this a try! I was laughing the entire time. My two runs veered more into the absurd, but that's just me~ 😋

I think you have something really good here. Like, there's so much freedom for the player to play this in whatever tone they want. They could do a wholesome run like Sesame Street or something more dark like Don't Hug Me I'm Scared. Or something absurd like me (whichfollowing the muppet-related examples would make it Avenue Q, maybe?).

My only criticisms (and trust me these are very light, you did a really good job here), would be:

  • I think the game could easily be formatted to fit in one side of the paper, making it even more printer friendly!
  • I think the game could benefit from having a defined "end state". I played under the house rule that once I filled the page the "episode" was over. I did something similar in one of my games and people really liked it.

Thank you for making this game! It was so much fun~

Thank you so much for playing! I'm very happy you had fun :D

And about the advice you gave, thank you so so much for that as well! I'm definetly applying what you said in the next version I do of the rulebook (though I'm currently in a videogame jam and don't have a lot of time aside from that and doing my daily life, but I'll fit the game in a single page + think of an end state as you recommended as soon as I can!)

Thanks again for your comment and criticism! It's really appreciated :D

Really enjoyed this one! Really creative and really fun to play. I played the my puppet is frustrated that I don't understand the secret they're trying to tell me prompt and it made me think of creative ways to express my puppets emotions.
