Such a great interpretation of the theme, the art and sound design is very nice. Awesome work!
Just beautiful, artwork is top tier and such a fun original take on the theme.
Such a cool concept! I love anything to do with languages, especially when aliens are involved. Art style and audio really add to the feel.
Awesome stuff, probably my favourite entry so far!
Nice aliens! They look awesome and the sound effects are great. One thing that might be nice is a meter to see how many customers you serve and how you are doing. I did have a fun time once I figured it out a bit more. Great job!
Really nice game here, love the papers please vibes and am a big fan of that format. Art and sound are incredible, really feels well polished. I only have two cons for it and that’s the dice sometimes make it impossible for you to get a perfect score because it never rolls the language that you need. Secondly, having it just be that the sounds match the language felt too easy, especially in absence of a timer or anything. Asides from that, I really loved this entry, very nice indeed!
Really original idea, great game!
Bu Be Ba AS AS!
Really fun crazy audio scape. Gets pretty stressful with the flies and all after a while. Super nice style and colours too :) Bit long overall perhaps but otherwise pretty damn nice!
Really cool game! Nice art and sound, great idea.
Really unique idea! Love the artstyle, great job overall!
One of my favorite concept in term of originality. I love the fact you used audio as part of the gameplay (So far the only game I have seen that does that). The art and sound are one of the best of the jam and I am amazed by the quality. Only thing is the difficulty. This is sooo hard to get 6 dice right :D (I will try again with a headset later though see if I do better). Maybe starting with one dice then add an other one... Really looking forward it if you decide to continue the concept because it has a lot of potential.
Thanks for your comment! The roll of the dice are fully random so it's based on pure luck, I barely get 6 correct dice myself x'D
Amazing approach on the theme! the background noises confused me a lot and I made a lot of aliens mad lol, I enjoyed playing it, the art is really cool
Cool idea to communicate with aliens!
Realy liked the added elments, fly's do the die. The game did crash on my sadly. But I had fun.
Ooh, sorry it crashed! But glad you had fun nonetheless.
amazing but really stressfull lol 0-0
Very unique, I really enjoied it. Good job!
Love the art, even though i ended up closing my eyes to focus on the sound most of the time.
Solid entry !
Glad you liked the art!
Yes, the game is really demanding on the listening department xD
Very solid entry. I now speak two languages.
Thanks! If you ever encounter an alien you now know what to speak xD
What an incredibly well polished and original game this is! I'm not sure if there's ambient voices in between aliens that show up, but it seemed like there was and it made it a lot harder to pick up on the voice I was supposed to be listening to. I don't think I did very well but I can recognize that this was a very well made game that you put a lot of effort into. Great job with this!
Thanks for your comment! Yes, those ambient voices were made exactly for that purpose :P
So good and fun ! I think adding a clock or a count to indicate when it's the end of a day could be great, because at one point the first day I almost stopped thinking that it was it (thankfully I didnt'). I really love it, it gives paper please vibe with the more things we have to do and be aware of. The art is so beautiful and funny, evey character near the end was so weird it was awesome. Really well done !
Thanks for your comment! I think that would be a great implementation, didn't think about it.
I was indeed inspired by Papers Please so I'm happy to hear that :D
At first it was really confusing but after you get the basics and see the correlation between the dices and the voices it becomes really fun to play! And the art and audio is really cool!
One small suggestion, I don't know if it's just me but the "really happy" emoji/icon seems less happier than the "normal happy" emoji/icon. So changing that and making it more happy would better in my opinion.
Nevertheless, I had fun playing it. This is what I got so far :v
Glad you liked it, and thanks for the feedback!
