Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • We done especially for your first game. I wish there was more learning ASL rather than just bumbling through largely picking options at random or a whim.
  • Original concept but I would've liked to've seen some actual interpretation puzzles.
  • I definitely think the concept is great! But maybe a little bit different execution. The story is a little bit cliche, and some of the things are weird/unserious, like a deaf person being stuck in the sewers, or the dialogues with typos/mistakes. I clicked through the dialogues but they weren't very interesting, some of them didn't even make a lot of sense, like picking between two answers that are basically the same. Some visuals were clunky and I could tell it was just bad AI generation because the characters were inconsistent in size and looks. There wasn't anything particularly interesting about the characters either. Overall the game could be more fun and the ASL used to solve puzzles instead of just clicking through dialogue, it was lacking something that evokes some kind of emotions.

I had to idea what I was doing during the game and was just guessing my way through it. And that seems to be precisely the situation the character found themselves in.

Thanks for the feedback. 

"that seems to be precisely the situation the character found themselves in." <- Is it negative or positive?

I had planned a bigger gameplay, mobility, item exploration, interaction with characters, but I had not enough time and I started coding from the scratch.

It is positive, in my opinion.

Really fun game. It was a unique experience with the ASL text instead of the regular English text, and very fun to get the different endings!

Thank you :)
