I loved this! Definitely caught on pretty early on, but loved the sense of tension. Really well done!

By far my favorite game I played during this jam. Extremely topical. I could tell where it was going but it was still unexpectedly impactful. I love how the music rises near the end. Brilliant submission!

A Heist in 60 SecondsI have no words. This is now my favourite game of the jam :P
The visuals were just absolutely stunning. Especially when the words started floating around my cursor. Marvelous!Anyways for mild mild issues i found, you misspelled confidence :> and also two images were missing for some reason. But anyways this was an amazing game! Can't believe it was inspired by true stories.
Also the floating text did kinda get in the way with clicking the buttons :P

Dev SnippetsNice. But I choose not to vote , and nothing happened until I had to choose yes, because the game did not progress for the 5 minutes I waited and my partner wanted to see the ending... You probably should have just taken me out.

Trouble With Tetras: FeralBytesWow! What a chilling, tense and daunting story! I could see different players tacking this game differently.
I, for one, wanted to resist but I also tried to keep my family safe so the "family in danger" text really shook me, and I caved lol. Also, the limiting of choices later on adds to the weight of the story.
A really perfect and excellent interpretation of the theme and well executed!

My Pop Up Power Up ShopNormally im not a fan of games like this but this one had me hooked with clicking text. Very innovative!

Guide GoatFor a politics topic game, very good, even if i don't love this type of games. But fun for a small game.

Picking OlivesI found the story depressing because it hits too close to home, but that was the idea so I won't rate it low on enjoyment.
The way it was presented was simple but effective. Always a fan of games that add more interaction with the text. Good job.

Don't Destroy David's DayThat was a great experience and nice change of pace from other games! I really enjoyed the storyline and how you can expand on certain little details to read more into it. I am also a fan of your decisions have consequences!

Duct Tape & DespairWow this was such a cool experience! I love the unique functionality you were able to give to different text interactions, which also gave sentences and words more impact. The goal to uphold your safety and favor is also a cool way to ensure that the player's choices mattered. Great work, I was pleasantly surprised.

Piece of CakeVery well designed game, nice job! The music was also very well done and fit the growing tension in the game very well. Was it purposeful that I was not able to select some of the options when it was time to vote?

A Knight at the InnDefinitely the most impactful entry I have experienced so far! I was fully engaged throughout even though tou can tell where it is going. Quite emotional too. Well done. The game was very well polished and atmospheric. My favourite on many aspects!
