Really quirky concept! I kind of dig it but its a bit weird that I can't solve it on my own when the teacher's around. Also when I submit with all correct answers its still a game over.
Great take on the theme! I love the monologues, and how you can just make the Demon/Teacher solve everything for you.
You could, though, make the teacher animation faster. It's quite a drag, waiting for the teacher to come in and go out.
The controls were a bit confusing, too. Why should I ask help from the demon, if I can just make them solve it? Is there any advantage?
And what was that on the page about RMB control? I never used that mechanic.
Good game, anyways!
I am a dum-dum and the first day is unpassable, but on the second day, you will have to use flasks and mix them
Because of the deadline, I couldn't implement grading system in the game, so in the next patch I'll just set Autosolve attempts to 2-3 for a day.
Anyways, I'l try to fix this tomorrow. Thanks for checking the game out!
Can I win this game? I submitted with all correct answers and lost. Is there just the one page of questions?
Anyway, interesting concept. I think having some agency in when the teacher is distracted would be nice. Otherwise it seems like I just have to wait around until I can even look at the test without losing.
I was incredibly confused before and after reading the controls. I appreciate the originality and memes, but game done got did done broke. Good effort
This game is different from everything you have played until now, and that is awesome, because the game has a very unique and creative mechanic that it is pretty cool, the game is kinda crazy but it is what makes the game so special, the art is well done and it has a great soundtrack, i think the controls could be more intuitive(simple) and I missed a restart button though, anyway it is a 5/5 game !
