Ranked from 6 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
The game fits the theme because the virus eats love, so if you enter a dangerous area, you are committing to beat it hitless or you'll kill one of the townfolk who love you. Unfortunately I ran out of time, so the NPCs aren't compelling or anything yet.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I used artwork purely from the sponsor craft pix, and I got free sfx for the car.

This was a really interesting way to control the character. I definitely liked the typing, but I think a little bit of traditional UI as well would have been helpful.

Your tutorials were top notch!

The combat was fun, the enemy animations and AI was very smooth. The map/town sections are very ambitious for a game jam! I didn't fully understand, but I can imagine that they would make more sense with a bigger game. I'm also a fan of any game that involves typing words under pressure, so I'd like to see more of that feature. Good job!

This is a phenomenally complex game for a jam, I’m very impressed. I had trouble grasping all the mechanics but I think I could get the hang of it after dedicating more time to it. Well done!

I liked the combat sections of the game but I just couldn't figure out how to play the other portions even with the tutorials. In a future update maybe you can make try to make some of the tutorials more descriptive. Also you can add a reset if you fail to do something (like selecting the map parts in the right order) because everytime I failed that I just had to exit out and reload the page.
