I loved the atmosphere you created by great art and fitting music. A really nice portrayal of historical characters in a very intersting (and rarely used) setting. Really enjoyed visiting your club. And Fluffy!!!
Such a nice contrast between the lovely music and some of the debauchery going on in the club. Really enjoyed the setting and the silly little twists to the story.
Amazing game! I found that this game is kind of like "Darkside Detective", which is one of my favorite pixel games. It's unbelievable that so many details are shown in a few scenes with a quite interesting story. Besides, the music and fine pixel art make me immerse myself in it. A fun game and a good textbook about storytelling for me to learn!
wow! Thank you for kind words
Man, do I feel silly now. Got stuck for a hot (ha!) minute before I realised that the screen scrolls to the left ...
I really wonder what the other patrons were thinking about the woman who just stood in the middle of an open space and said: "Oh no, what do I do? I have nowhere to go!" :))
Having the game based on historical facts is a nice touch. Berlin in the Twenties and Thirties is a great setting. I'm surprised we don't see that more often in adventure games. You managed to capture the atmosphere quite nicely. The lovely art surely helps with that. I'd loved to have a puzzle or two that aren't fetch quests, but that's just a minor nitpick. Making the patrons happy was fun. I enjoyed visiting the Dorian Gray a lot. A the dachshund is just too cute.
Fun game!
I really enjoyed the art and story. Awesome idea!
thanks for playing and enjoying :)
Nice game, it flows well from both a writing and a puzzle design point of view. And the bathroom scene is great.
i know your love for bathroom😂 thank you!
Thanks!
Loved the juxtaposition of the sfx in a certain scene with the lovely piano music! XD You picked a really interesting setting, using a unique inspiration, and I loved the style of the character art too.
Thank you so much for noticing the details :) aiming to play your game soon!
Quite a nice game here :-) - with a perfect music soundtrack and a lot of cool characters and animations. Game's easy enough to fit its relaxing mood - and there's another super cute dog :-D - so well, my congratulations for your work
thanks Marco, for a jam personally i prefer to provide a short but enjoyable experience.
I'm glad that you enjoyed It.
Thank you, Marco! You did an excellent job too with your game.
I really like to have an opportunity to discover the character of Miro and all historical facts. The art style is super nice and it fits the theme very well. Love the dream-like atmosphere of the setting and the over the top characters (like Fluffy). Lots of nice touches like the ice that will melt if you hold it for too long. Well done.
Thank you! glad that you enjoyed this
Thank you! This means a lot to us.
Great story / history lesson. I learned something! :)
I'm really glad the character of Annemarie Schwarzenbach and all the historical and cultural circumstances can cross time and reach people in a funny way :) it was one of the aims, thank you for noticing it.
Good clean fun :D
Nothing too taxing, but a nice little game with some fun moments, and I love Fluffy. Any game with a dog in it is a winner in my book! Great job.
Thank you! even cat is a good choiche for a game however
ahah, thanks! We'll pay Fluffy your regards :)
I enjoyed playing this! I liked the graphics, music, and the overall atmosphere of the game. Extra points for giving diarrhea to a nazi! The puzzles were straightforward and I didn't get stuck anywhere. Great experience overall!
Yeah, diarrea Is Always fun 🤣 .
In glad you didnt stuck, Is really important ti us
Tanks :) Started playing The Lost Borealis Expedition last night ;)
Really fun game. Good puzzle mechanics across lots of rooms and really good dialog and humour. Great work!
Thank you so much! We're really glad that you enjoyed it :)
Thanks to everyone who is playing, enjoying, supporting and -most of all- taking pleasure from our small but irreverent adventure! :)
What an interesting entry! Loved the story and the puzzle design is also quite robust!
What a genius idea to have to interpret the dogs thoughts only to find out that it speaks! Love how this all fits into the bigger story as well. Really made me laugh. I think it would need a little bit more polish in regards to pixel-art (sizes of pixels differ from backgrounds to characters to items - very visibly in regards to dog - bow) and programming (walk to hotspot, then dialogue text or dialogue text then walk to hotspot, also noticed one dialog option where he repeated the option) and some interaction areas are not placed cleanly (leave screen to left especially). The text probably needs the most work in regards to polish. But this is all complaining on a very high level - REALLY enjoyed this entry with such an unique setting!
Bonus points for Dr. Hirschberg!
thank you for kind words and feedback.
Yeah, something could be wrapped up better but im quite satisfied
as you should be! Very cool entry and don't take the criticism too harshly. It's a very atmospheric game with some cool ideas!
Thank you so much for such kind words :) it was fun to finally manage to put this piece of narrative into a short game, Alessandro and I would be happy to update a new version with improved assets once the jam's over and we will collect and use all your feedbacks! Thanks for your support :)
While quite simple the atmosphere creates the feel of the time period nicely. But there is a glaring error in this otherwise ultra-realistic game. Who puts ice cubes in a cocktail glass?!
Nobody!except for the doctor, Is a strange guy 😅
Nice little short fetch quest type game! These types of games are a fun way to spend twenty minutes.
thank you for playing
Thank you! I'd be happy to discover your game too :)
