I liked it! Have you thought about implementing a timer or something similar?

How does you game fit the theme?
There's someone for everyone especially in love, so I decided to capture this in a dating game.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes

An interesting new experience. I would have loooooovvvved to have some background noise of a restaurant in it. I think that would help sell the overall idea. But it's a pretty good implementation you've got. Good job.

Crimson MeadowsSuch a fun idea! I am just terrible at typing games, I have no idea why. I kept making the date mad... Oh well! I loved the pixel art and the 3d background. All in all, great job!

Passed & Presentat first i was confused on why every word i type was just wrong but after i read comments below i realized the uppercase was matter in this game. i like the details when you fail so much the word you have to type start stuttering just like myself on date. 10/10 hit close to home

Interstellar JanitorI love this game! Really funny lines, the artwork is great and it fits the theme nicely.
My favourite part is when you are typing fast, make a mistake and fail two or three in a row. It makes you as nervous as the main character!

DIY MonstersAnd if there were sounds of typing or "talking" - that added a really nice final touch:)

Art is really beautiful! Really makes you feel like you're playing Typing of the Dead

ROB.O.T.S.Really fun game. My one complaint is, when speaking (in real life) there's no need to worry about capitalization, spaces or punctuation - so while the game is more challenging having to worry about those factors, it creates a dissonance between the gameplay and narrative of the game. That being said it was still an interesting interpretation of the theme and great concept, good work!

patronThank you for the feedback! I added those details in the sentences intentionally since I felt like the type wizzes of the world would have breezed through this game too easily. That being said, I did go back and forth on whether conjunctions were fair or commas stuff like that, so maybe that could be reworked with more play testing, Thanks for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed it overall!
Great art, I love all the different models you created. And you must have written soooo many lines, it was hilarious to read them all. The gameplay was fun, the extra letters were a clever way to make it tough. I wish there were a little more time after making a mistake to avoid angering her so much.
I want to go to Frrrraannnnnce.

Passed & PresentSo glad you liked the writing! Most of the sentences were generated with some being handwritten by me, however I picked and choose from those generated list and then modified the sentences to make them fit better. This saved a ton on time and made some really funny lines, including but not exclusive to "I want to go to France". Your comment made me laugh, thanks for playing!
First thing I wrote down was I did not want to do a horror game since I figured a ton of people would be taking that approach. When approaching jams I usually never go with my first inclination or idea since it's usually the last idea that is wild and out there! But all in all it's a jam so no shade to anyone who took that approach as long as you made something you're a winner! I'll be sure to check out your game, thanks for playing!
I thought myself as a decent writer.
This game made me consider otherwise. 10/10!

Ordinary DayDid this game make me feel as nervous as when talking to someone?
uhh somehow yes??
I love how if you make mistakes, it gets harder to speak (type), that's really clever.
