Super cool art!

Submitted

The art style is amazing, and it feels like you have done so much in just one week.

There is a bug in museum near window, it shows arrow and say something about being too dark. The pointer got stuck. I must say moving around the pointer with D-pad feels slow and odd. I would prefer putting dots over each interactables and let the left/right arrows switch which dot to focus on.

It's a good game with nice story and humor. Good work.

I really enjoyed this. The art-style was amazing and I loved the decision to use the arrow keys to move the cursor. Really added to that retro vibe. Looking forward to more of this!

Developer

Thank you so much for checking out the game. Im happy you enjoyed it :D The retro vibe was definitely what I was going for!

This was great! I love the art style and the point and click adventure mechanic mix. There is a great amount of background story included here that is engaging, and I want to know the rest! When I was in front of the museum, I encountered a glitch. The cursor got stuck between icon switches and it also got stuck on the ground between the building and the sun in the background. I had to restart to get past it. I hope you complete the game after this. Nice work!

Developer

Thank you so much! Am so glad you really enjoyed it. Also, thanks for pointing out the glitch, there was a problem with overlapping triggers over there which I will fix after the jam! I will continue to work on the game and hope you check it out again when it's more fleshed out!

Great game, but have you thought about using the mouse instead of the keyboard? I think it might be more convenient.

Anyway, keep it up with the first character; I wanna know more about the world you've created ^^

Developer

Hey! Thanks so much for checking out the game. I hope to work on it later on after the jam!

And as for the mouse function, I don't think GBStudio allows that as it was suppose to emulate the gameplay on a gameboy. But I do agree that I could make the controls abit easier, or at least give better instructions on what keys to press!

I loved playing the game! This is an amazing concept and it's so interesting exploring the world! I will say though that I got a bit stuck because when I got the pint of beer, I thought I could give it to someone for something else, but no one accepted the beer. I think this is because you haven't finished the game yet, but overall, the game was awesome!

Developer

Hey! Thank you for playing the game, am really glad you liked the world I was trying to create so much. Wish I could do more in terms of game play like finish coding a few more mini quests (like the beer quest)  but in the end, given the time, it became just an intro of the game world as I am just a really slow programmer as I'm only just learning how to do it! XD Thank you again for your kind words :)

This looks like a lot of fun! I love the chicken and the title. Although, on the main menu, I can't seem to hit the "Start" button on desktop. I tried hitting Z, X, A, B, WASD, and the arrow keys. Would the download be better?

Developer

hello! Thank you for checking it out and letting me know the issue - can you try hitting Enter on your keyboard and see if it works? Thank you!!

Submitted(+1)

Yeah! I hit enter and that worked. "gee pee ass" HAHA, the visual novel part of this is awesome.

For anyone else reading, here are some instructions. Some notes on bugs/confusions below:

  • After the main menu, hit "z" to progress the "comics". It would nice if enter worked here too, or if there was an indication of which key to press.
  • Once you see a door, use WASD. Arrow left/right are bugged. Generally, use WASD + z/x when interacting with the world.

This is an insane amount of content for a short game jam. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Cool!!! Thank you for checking it out again and giving it another go :D Really appreciate it, and yea, I do think I could have given better instructions on what keys to press to progress in the game world!!

Yes, it was an insane amount of work - but just wish I had more time to polish! The art at the end just became 'looser' and more sketch like lol,  I'm sure you can tell the difference between some of the panels.
