Oh man I love the aesthetic so much, it's so simple but striking. I love the little wobbly animations and how well it looks floating in the center of a black webpage. The music is very fitting too. I love the quirky writing, I had a huge smile on my face the whole time. Looking over the comments and replies here it sounds like there are ways that the stories can interact, I might have to go back and try more things because I'm not sure I experienced that. There were a couple moments when I thought the game was stuck but I found out I just needed to flip a bunch more times. Such a unique and gorgeous submission, I love it!
Both of your issues (it's unclear how the stories interact and game seeming to be stuck sometimes) are consistent with what I've got on my list to change for a post-jam update, so... Hurrah! I don't have more things to change! Jokes aside, it seriously is great to get feedback that mirrors others have said because it reassures me that what I plan to change really needs it. So I really do appreciate the feedback!
Oh! And I'm glad you like my goofy little style! Thanks so much for taking the time to play and comment!
An interesting game, i like the idea of the two stories but i feel it could be a lot better if the stories combined a little bit more to make a lot of different combinations. However both stories are funny and the artstyle and music fits really well.
This game is brilliant. Every aspect of this game are coherently tuned to the theme, like the color usage, and even small details like the text layout. Character designs are phenomenal and story is hilariously clever. One of my favourites!
Very nice art and animations. The aesthetics of the game are top notch. Great job.
Love the art work and I really love how the music fits the tone of the game as well.
Your storytelling style shines through this medium and this is a neat experience. It's very cool seeing the subtle differences as you go through the game.
Very funny and cute, the music fit it perfectly :D
I liked the idea and you have a knack for storytelling, quirky little story which was fun to have a look at.
Sometimes it seemed like I couldn't get anywhere, it just had the flip option and no matter how many times I flipped it didn't work, I just went settings and deleted save and got it working that way though!
Yeah, the issues you had are on my list of things to fix for a post-jam update for sure. I think this is mostly the fault of bad game design on my end; some of the parts where folks are getting stuck actually require some flipping to proceed (specifically, if you ended up stuck while waiting). In retrospect, that was a stupid idea, haha.
But I'm glad you were able to find some enjoyment (and keep things moving along) nonetheless. Thanks for taking the time to play and leave some feedback! Really appreciate it!
Man this was great :D Super cute, adorable art, the animations are such a great touch with (hopefully) not too much effort on your side, super quirky story with achievement hunting and very fitting music!
I had a blast playing :D Great job!
