It’s a fun concept, and i can see the side of programming in this game.. its quite good ngl… if u work on this more, it will get u alot of downloads

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Thank you so much for playing it. I definitely will!

Jet4GamesSubmitted2 years ago

Really fun game idea! Did feel a bit repetitive though. If you carry on working on this, maybe add more characteristics to check and add a checking time limit per person?

Submitted

It is not real.

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago(+1)

Absolutely. I have a few ideas to make the game feel a bit more urgent which I just couldn't get to. Was too busy wrapping my head around animations and state machines.

Thank you for the feedback :)

cnkrtnSubmitted2 years ago

Very nice Idea. This is the 3rd entry I saw that used this Papers Please kind of game mechanic which fits the theme very well. My only advice would be to add some audio feedback to spice the atmosphere a bit. Other than that the game is a solid entry.Well Done!

Submitted

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

I thought so too haha

Yes for sure. I'm going to add a final build after the jam to to tie this one off with a bow. Feel free to follow if you want to see how it turns out!

Thank you for the feedback ^^

cnkrtnSubmitted2 years ago

Take your time and add some more mechanics to it. A bouncer is a nice fit as a border officer. You might add at least 2 more cool concepts which would make this a solid game loop.Cheers...=)

Realllyyy cool idea ! had a lot of fun not letting anyone in xD

Meany!! :D

nima.peykarimehSubmitted2 years ago

cool idea, it's like papers, please. something like a timer would be great to make it more challenging.

Submitted

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

I will definitely add that in the future. Thanks ^^

I really enjoyed yours too. Rated in return

WinterCourtFaeSubmitted2 years ago

I like the concept, had a similar vibe to Papers, Please without the somber tone lol. And as someone else said, man I feel old realizing that 2004 was the cutoff year lmao. Good job!

Submitted

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Yeah, I'm really chuffed with the music I found. Thanks.

Time : she flies hey?

Best of luck with the jam!

AzvicksonSubmitted2 years ago

I loved the concept! Throwing people's IDs was sooo satisfying haha! "Get out of my club you faker!" lol. The only thing I'd say is it could have used more of a tutorial. I wasn't sure what the watermark looked like at first, and because legal drinking age in the US is 21 I kept thinking they needed to be 21 at first. Not your fault on that since you clearly said 18, but I messed up at first. Also, I didn't realize I needed to match hair and eye color. It would have been a nice touch to let you know if you got it wrong and why, kind of like Papers, Please does with the little fax message. Loved the music though and the low-fi 80s computer graphic style. Great job!

Submitted

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to play and give feedback.

You're absolutely right, I would have loved to have added a tutorial and better feedback to the player. The thing is I only got the actual win and loss scenarios done in the last 3 minutes! Time management, huh?

Please follow my channel if you want to see any updates in the future. I have some ideas in the works to polish this title off.

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Thank you!

The credits to the artist are on the game's main page. Please check it out if you need similar music for future work :)

curlyGoblinSubmitted2 years ago

Really love the details you put in - like the audio getting louder when the door opens and the card throw.

Submitted

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Coming from the champ of audio that means a lot! Thank you

RKI3000Submitted2 years ago

I'm really sorry, it's not your fault (it's not because of the 144MB weight of your game) , but my computer just won't let me download itch.io games. I truly apologise.

Good luck in the jam!

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago(+1)

Hey no problem. Thank you for taking the time to post a comment. I'll still add yours to my list to rate.

Same to you!

DeraboSubmitted2 years ago

Thanks for making me feel old....

"this should be easy. everyone who was born after 19... no 2000... wait.. oh my...." haha

I really loved the throwing card animation. might have kicked out a few people that I was not supposed to because of that.

Submitted

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Luckily since this dev was a little too stretched for time you weren't punished for throwing out valid guests.

I know right! I'm a '94 guy myself and in my mind everyone after 2000 is still a baby.

Thanks for your comments bud. Got a good chuckle out of it. Love your game too btw

DeraboSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

aaaaahahaha back to throwing IDs!

LostGameDevSubmitted2 years ago

This was really fun! It reminds me of Not Tonight games. Really good job!

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

You know, I've heard of Papers Please but not "Not Tonight". I really thought I had an original concept going here haha

Anyway, thank you for taking the time to play. Really appreciate it ^^

PixTrickSubmitted2 years ago

Ahah played a lot to Papers, Please and it reminds me a lot that game ! The music is good and i love how you can throw the id card of someone you don't want in.

All in all it's a great job !

The Monoliths of Reality

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Thank you!

Yeah I would have loved to add some ragdolling for hit customers and other breakable things, but I was stretched for time.

Thanks for playing

PixTrickSubmitted2 years ago

Ahahah that's such a great idea actually ! I would love to see the result if you did this ;)

FenyxSubmitted2 years ago

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Cedric Quilal-lanSubmitted2 years ago

Submitted

it is NOT a PROP!!!

Taijitu GamesDeveloper2 years ago

Hey, not every game is for everyone. Thank you for taking the time to play it.

If I get to updating it in the future I'll definitely get some more visual cues in to ease the learning curve.
