How does you game fit the theme?
The game is about a news anchor making fake monster stories to make people buy the news papers to save a dying news company.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All the assets are made by me apart from the projector sounds during the intro cutscene

Nice Job! Great work using the theme. Really cool atmosphere too! The music and art style really set the mood.

It seems like a little tweaking of the system that forms the sentences could really take things to the next level. I'd love to see an idea like this expanded upon, outside of a jam. Well done!

Hey!

The concept is awesome. It is hard to manage to write a full sentence but I really liked the game and it is a very good take on the theme of the jam. Congratulations!

Awesome idea for a game! I really liked your interpretation of the theme with 'fake news'.

Really good idea ! I like the concept, the atmosphere is nice, graphics are really good and the audio is quite simple, but fitting. That's a pretty unique, and enjoyable, way of handling the theme ^^. I would have loved a bit more feeback on the consequences of my choices, and I couldn't really do long proper sentences (which is realistic for me, I guess =p), but that a very solid and polished entry, congratulations =) !

Thank you for the feedback! I do plan on improving the way words are picked after the voting period is over

The cinematic atmosphere was great. Hit the theme well.

More feedback on how good your sentence was at scaring people would be nice. I felt no matter what I did the bar just slowly moved up the same amount.

Audio was good too.

One of the best games I have played so far! I was able to prevent bankruptcy on my second attempt. Everything in this game is very well-made. Graphics, voice acting, background music. Amazing job!

If you have a minute, please check my game too :)

Really polished game. The voice over at start is really professional. The gameplay is also very enjoyable with the intense atmosphere you crated.

I had fun playing your game! The music fits the atmosphere really well. I didn´t manage to reach the scare quota but still really enjoyed playing it.

Really good game, voice acting perfect, story perfect, the worry of your quota. Really cool game!

Aqua MagnetoSubmitted2 years ago(+2)

I love the voice acting! It really entertained me before starting the game. Awesome job with it! The sentence arrangement is a bit weird though. It would be great if there are words that will even make more sense or probably Machine Learning in games can be good with the game design :) Still good job!

Agent 404: Evidence not Found

Thank you for playing!

Glad you liked the voice acting. I agree that the sentence structure is a bit weird sometimes but got too close to the deadline that I couldn't improve it. Might update it after the jam for a better experience :)
