if game_dev == “lemonink”:

not ONCE have you missed on ui and in fact i only see your meteoric rise with no downfall in sight. i have to glaze the ui first because it is so smooth, beautiful, and perfectly encapsulates and even enhances the gameplay. it IS a chatdoll sim, of course, but the flowers add an organic touch that we later understand is this undercurrent of humanity – or the impression of humanity – within our lovely chatdoll. the irises in the beginning to represent the thing elliot is seeing within the chatdoll sim, and the roses alongside the text boxes in reference to galatea talking about why she adores flowers. flower language captures the subtle nuance of language that ai doesn’t yet have a perfect grasp of, and the red roses for romance is especially poignant and fitting when we find that elliot is seeing a lost love in galatea’s place.

elif game_dev = “lemoninked”:

the main gameplay loop is incredible, as you get to see galatea slowly morph into the shape of a person – but not just any person, no, but shaped by our pygmalion elliot into the shape of iris. (meows here which only you will understand). also he’s so stupid LMFAO he knew it was a chatdoll and he fell for it!! he fell for her guise, the one he molded!! i can see the way you pulled the theme into the very essence of your game; he’s forced himself into such a narrow view that he only sees what he finds beautiful and he discards all else. his logic, his reason… he couldn’t see galatea as human before but as soon as she becomes more like iris, that’s all he sees.

else:

otherwise, i just want to emphasize that i enjoyed this game very much!! please keep this going – i want to see more of galatea! maybe in a sequel? this is def my fav rendition of pygmalion/galatea!

Wow, the UI is amazing!!!  I loved the little changes you could see in the bot with your feedback.  The story fascinates me--was the bot intentionally based on Iris, or did the bot simply mold itself to Otto's needs along the way?  Very interesting.

Wow, I love the conversation progression! Watching the bot develop day by day was extremely intriguing and the ending sealed the entire thing nicely. The gui is also very clean and adds an overall nice feel to the game

Interesting. As someone who is learning about AI and natural language processing, this game gave me goosebumps. Love the textbox GUI! Oh, but maybe you should check the fullscreen button on the embed options for the web build.
