Thank you! That's very high praise haha, I wanted the small snippets to be as evocative as possible. And good notes about the links, I'll definitely work on making them a little more intuitive / easy to use. I only made it in <2 days so some of QOL slipped through so I'm excited to dive into those

A decent note about the cycling links, I'll definitely look into adding some quality of life stuff and making things more intuitive. I'm glad you liked it! "Generated poetry" is kind of exactly what I was going for :D

Thank you! I initially wanted to kind of create a larger, longer story based on the input but I ran out of time (also started very late lol). I'm glad you liked it!

This was so cute!! You had me from the first line "I'm not 8 anymore... I'm 8 and a half!" adorable. The pixel art was gorgeous, the music was really nice, and the story was super sweet. There's a ton of potential here if y'all do more development on it, I would love to see the relationship between Leaf and Shelly explored a little, maybe some fun little dialogue while on the sea, exploring how he died/why he wanted to see the ocean, idk. And the inventory, picking up random objects but giving them significance on the boat in Leaf's imagination. Anyway loved this, great job!

Yep, talking to Pizza Bot, Info Bot, and the witness, a dialogue box pops up that says "action: terminate conversation" but it's not clickable, it's like they're saying it. I had to hit esc and redo the initial convo to try again

I had the same problem Korlagwan had where all the NPC's said 'Terminate Conversation' and wouldn't let me progress.  Otherwise the concept, the art, and the story seemed really cool (reminds of some weird 90's PC games).  Wish I could've progressed further!  Will definitely check this out if a fixed version shows up, even after the jam ends.

Super fun concept! After the second "loop" when Ted sent the letter to himself, I laughed out loud and it was a great moment. From then on though I started to get kind of confused about the story and I think it went on for too long. Also, this is probably a small thing but I kept getting "Anthony" and "Andrew" confused since their names are so similar. Nice work! 

Loved every second of this. At first I intentionally killed myself on the spikes, since that's what the narrator said, and I thought that's how I progressed the game. But then I quickly realized what the game ACTUALLY was and I had a blast. I laughed out loud at several points (especially the end though). Great job!

The drawings in the intro were amazing! It set the tone of eerie / sweet right off the bat. Then in the house every time I turned around I kept expecting to see her and then when she peeked out of the doorframe I genuinely got a little spooked. Nice job! It was verrryy dark though, especially the hallway with no light switch (that I could find)

Cool idea! The music and the premise were well done, I genuinely felt kind of spooked out. I also quit out before getting to the end since 5 keys is a lot and the maze is really hard to navigate backwards haha. I totally get the short time limit, I started mine super late too :) nice work!

That definitely came across! I also felt bad for the son haha that he had such a bad dad, and that the son was believing everything his dad said.

Loved this! The controls are super slick and the sword slash is really satisfying. It's a totally classic take on the theme but it works really well, it's silly and goofy and sweet. I murdered everything and only learned from the comments that if you don't kill anything it's different, that's such a nice touch! 

I especially loved the first few levels, because it seemed reasonable that this super weak knight murdered a bunch of rats and then called them beasts. But later the exaggerations with the sorcerer and the black hole and tickling the dragon, while it was definitely funny, it seemed more like just genuine lies than exaggerations. Which I guess isn't that important of a distinction haha but yeah that's really my only "critique" overall this was super fun and got a few genuine chuckles out of me. Great job!
