Such a crazy idea! Really cool- I loved the feeling of having no clue at all. I must say, I'm happy this is not real live ;O

Guess they weren't in the mood for overly nice messaging. Oh well, can't please everyone.
Good thing you enjoyed it, and I did feel like not everyone was going to get was going on, kind of because there is no objective thing going on. Of course I know what I wanted it to be but if you had a different experience, I can't blame ya :p
Firstly, never would've thought of this but it fits really well. That's the out of the box thinking I love to see in game jams.
The visual style is also really nice, and the way the other person can pause to show their not sure about what they're typing is really cool. Emily is Away vibes off this.
I do have one complaint, however, and that is the inclusion of the meter at the top. I feel that it is unneeded as you already have the thumbs up and down to see if you did a good or bad job. The meter only ends up spoiling what ending you're going to get, which I feel is the most rewarding aspect of this game.
Give mine a try(here) and then rip it to shreds in the comments.
