How does your game relate to the theme?
The game talks about messages between a couple on two sides of a conversation where the message can be interpreted in multiple ways. The entire theme of polarity is interpreted as the variation in interpretations, ideologies, ideas and thoughts of people in our daily life and it also signifies the two polar opposite views in a conversation or in any relationship in general and how we can overcome that to come together with a common view

Dang, playing this felt like my last relationship ._.
But I like the concept and think the execution is nice, although it was a bit underwhelming for such a large team.
Well done and good luck with the judges!

This relationship was never gonna work out. It's like playing The Witcher 3 dialogue as a standalone game.

Bro really want us to roast the relationship πŸ’€

The phone has 8 percent battery but it never ends 

Anyways nice game really different interpretation of the theme. Nice art and UI. The settings has nothing but the exit button which was convenient. Really well done!

Yeah, we wanted to add more stuff to the game, but we ran out of time and had to scrap a few. Glad you liked the game

This relationship sounds exhausting, I wish there was a breakup button, lol

Developer(+1)

Ya, it's what we're trying to recreate here, a very frustrating and exhausting relationship and your job is to manage it. Thanks for the review !

I like the original concept! However, i started getting really lost lmao

i ended up getting stuck in a loop with the can we talk right now? I guess that was intentional? :<

Anyways yes the delay in the  answers was clear, and the answers remaining after pressing it was there. It didn't really affect the gameplay though.

The gameplay itself was .. a little empty?  I couldnt really tell what to choose lol

The art style is soo cutee though! The music is so calming, and the overall ui looks really polished. The game really has potential to become something more if the bugs are fixed!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for the feedback. There were a lot of last-minute bugs we weren't able to fix, the loop wasn't intentional that was a bug too 😬. The choosing part was intentional though. We wanted it to be confusing for the players. (in a real conversation there never really is a right answer). But glad you like the game !

Sometimes the selectable responses we can click appear with a significant delay. You choose an option, get a reply, but the button for the same response is still clickable!!! >.<

Apart from that, though, this is a really cool concept for a game!!! I absolutely love the art style and visuals, and the music/sound effects are also very pleasant to the ears >.<

The dialogues with our "other half" are even a bit annoying, so I really got into the spirit of the game!!! The immersion is strong >.<!! x3

It's truly a great little game; however, I feel like it’s missing something in terms of gameplay~ Choosing options sometimes feels like pure guesswork >.<

But even so, I managed to win the game on my first try >:3!!!

Totally awesome!! :3

Developer

Thank you so much, the dialogues were meant to be a bit confusing but it still does have a lot of bugs XD. I'm glad you enjoyed our game so much.
