How does the game fit the theme?
The player character – the host – has the perception that nothing can go wrong this evening. It must not go wrong! There are high social stakes! For the other guests however, this is just a chance to meet some people and get some free drinks. Everything will most likely turn out OK in the end. What's the worst thing that could happen?

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The music and SFX

The idea is unique and the art style is very interesting! Well done.

Nice little game! It had a Sims vibe with the character.

I would love to see more events or special guests, as the routine stays the same throughout the whole game. 

Submitted

The art style is so cool! The concept was really well made and overall I enjoyed the game :)

Submitted

Really innovative idea!

Submitted

Love the game! Nice artwork and impressive range of functionality.

Hey, your art work is amazing! Althoug you didn't make the sounds, they fit the game very well too! So, only thing I would change is to make the game stop when you hit pause and when you are reading the tutorial in the beggining too. Beside that, its great! I had fun playing it, and loved this gameplay concept you created! Congratulations!

Great idea and good visuals. Really like the atmosphere but for a beginner to the game the context is just too much. Maybe a slowly steady progression for onboarding would be a better choice.

Very interesting concept! I personally am a fan of the era so I might be biased, but great visual design and music choice! I love the fact that I can just hand out booze to people if I don't know what to say. Wish that works in real life too.

i loved it! i want to go to the smokeroom and entertain the gentlemens as a next level

Loving the setting of this one. I wish texts are more readable, and fewer guests to deal with at the beginning so I can familiarize myself with the mechanics before seeing so many options (guests).

Submitted

One of my favorites so far! I really like the concept of having to talk to the people and manage their enjoyment! And I absolutely loved the art! My only criticism is that sometimes the UI overlaps in a way that makes it hard to read. But even so, amazing work! Really enjoyed it ^^

Submitted

Neat really well made. beautiful pixel art, I like the font choice. Would love more sfx - Especially for clicking buttons and navigating  UI. The setting is really interesting. saying the right thing in the right time feels good. Well done.

Submitted

Pleasantly surprised by the innovative idea. Music and art go together very well. Great job, congratulations.

Submitted

Really cool concept with unique mechanics! The art is wonderfully done

Submitted

Wow, the art and the music is good! The idea feels unique
The fact that tutorial is a longread a bit sad :(

Submitted

OMG this is fantastic! The character, the UI, and the environment are top-notch! the uniqueness of the game is great, also I love the line indication if you're close to the npc. Great job, I rated this 5-star

Submitted

Wow! incredibly well put together, the pixelart is beautiful 😍

Submitted

Good game, it was different and very interesting

I have to admit... I mentioned the war.

This was a great experience with excellent implementation. Great work!
