Great game!!!!
what a game, at my first and second try the right Ivan was in the first scene, I really thought something was wrong, but when Ivan was in other places, and you find like 3 Ivans in the same place, and you have to check all de miss information on the list, what chaos. well done
The game is just super well put together
This game was cute and fun! It fits the theme well for the finding a person in a big crowd. Finding Ivan isn't too hard, but it does challenge you because the hints you are given aren't always right. I also played this a few times because Ivan is not a set person so it has that replayability factor.
The music is A+
GJ making this game
Great game, I love the art especially. It looks very simple and well fitting for the game. Music is also nice and wasn't too repetitive or annoying (nice choice on that).
It also felt like playing where is waldo when you get clues of what Ivan may look like. Bonus points for also making every game feel different, i was going to cheese it the second time around and talk to the same person on the event area where I found Ivan but i was pleasantly surprised when it wasn't him.
Only difficult bit was when characters are too close to the edge and when you click on them, it takes you to the next area instead of talking to them.
Thx for playing!
Sadly knowed issue, didnt time at the end to fix that(
I know that feeling very well.. haha and it was great what you managed to accomplish regardless.
Really cool artstyle and very nice game idea. If there would be one thing to ad, it would be some "talking" from the people, like mumbling or something.
This is is definitely one of the most original games I've found, and the style really suits it. But I feel like the design of the idea could be improved. I ended up just clicking on random people to find each and every Ivan and take them to the person in white. It would become much more interesting if you could make the various hints actually necessary. Maybe there is a single Ivan but some of the other people lie and you can identify them, and instead of physically find him when the time is up you review the info you gathered and chose among a few options based on the identikit you created.
Take this as a constructive feedback, because I really did appreciate the idea and I feel like it could be even better.
Yeah, it was one of my main concerns throughout the development of the game. I was thinking about ways to discourage people from just randomly clicking on people, e.g. introducing cooldowns, having some requirements for each person or even minesweeper like gameplay where if you click on the wrong Ivan, you straight up just die (kinda savage, but it could work if there was a reliable way to find the right Ivan). Unfortunately, the development took us much more time than expected (as usual), so in the end we just wanted to have something that is fun if played "fair". Your idea is great too! I guess it could be simplified to just giving player a single chance to pick when the time runs out (or when they think they are ready).
I liked it. Try my game ;0
Simple yet very good. Had fun searching for Ivan. Congratulations!
Really charming cute game....Love the cute graphics.. Do check out my chaotic scifi fps shooter game
i played it well. after getting first ivan i was not sure what to but i found that damn ivan
Great concept and great execution.
Wonderful game.
wow
Wow
WOW
This is one of the most beautiful games in the entire jam! I would really wanna see a full rpg or soething in this artstyle! The concept is genius as well! Perfect game, genius idea, beautiful artstyle. Eleven out of ten guaranteed!
I will follow you to the end of the world Ivan...
Thanks for playing and getting such Ivan Experience!)
Great game! Really enjoyed the visuals and gameplay. The world felt alive and the people felt like people. Well done!
Nice game man. I played 5-times but could not find him but when I play next then I find him easily. I think he appears randomly when we start the game. Great game!
Great game! They are liers haha, that made the experience even more chaotic lol, finally found Ivan but didn't know where to go after that, but still, the graphics and movement is very cool!
I guess its not that obvious, but the guy in the opening cutscene tells you to bring all Ivans to him. Also there is more than one Ivan at the party, so different people might point to different Ivans (hence the clues can be contradicting).
Really cool Game! it is a bit easy, but else really well done!
Thank you for feedback! The game can feel both easy and hard due to its random nature (sometimes almost the first person you talk to will be Ivan). But in the average case it might still take a while to follow the clues and track the right person.
then I had just luck, but still, really cool
This was cute. I found Ivan right away on my first try lol. I played again and realized there were more areas, pretty cool. The clues started to get a little confusing, it would be nice to have them get crossed out if you find the wrong Ivan.
Yeah, I was thinking about that, but it could make the game a little too easy (especially because different Ivans can have a few overlapping features). Also, if you haven't noticed, you can remove items from the clue list by just clicking on them (and get them back if you talk to someone again)
ah I did not notice, that works too!
Nice original idea, maybe if the setting was a little more concealed and the audio was done louder (crowd screaming ect) I think it could have been more chaotic (example your at a party and everyone is moving around and yelling) other than that nice game!
Yea, we didn't have enough time to add events and stuff, so the game isn't too chaotic (even under time pressure)
