Short but nice. I loved the voice acting and writing, it was hilarious. :D
I had a hard time getting past being a blender, I couldn't hear any other objects around to jump to. I could hear the music, and maybe a faint beeping sometimes, but I couldn't tell where it was coming from or if it was important. I kept clicking around randomly and eventually jumped to the refrigerator, and after that I got through the game easily. I didn't feel like I was making choices or solving puzzles, though. In fact most of the time I didn't even realize I was being presented with a puzzle at all, I would accidentally jump to the next appliance when I was just trying to hear what funny thing the characters would say next.
A minor thing is it would be good to make the voices louder relative to the sound effects. Especially with the blender, it was so loud I couldn't hear the start of many of the lines.
Other than those issues, it's a very funny and unusual little game. Good job!

Ear Hacker - Jam EditionI'm not an expert on audio games, but I'm not sure how I feel about the concept of aiming the mouse in them. Maybe I was doing something wrong, but I found it to be difficult to find items or goals I was looking for.

Cowboy's ChorusWholesome as hell! Short and complete. I love that the roomba just kept saying roomba, that is definitely the only thing you would use a roomba for, right 😂💕

Fighting the voices [Blind fiction]No matter where my mouse was, I could only jump into a blender and after that I was stuck.

Repeat the SoundsHey there! Thanks for trying it out! Sorry you got stuck. You're missing out on our awesome VOs! :P
I updated the game, so if you're still up to it, could you give it a go now?
I also noticed the game won't capture the mouse immediately ( working on that ), so make sure that you click in the window until you can (it should be after the character leaves the room in the intro)
