There's not that much to do in this, but I liked the concept nontheless, also the art is really nice! Some sound effects could go a long way :)

Developer

Ya, We had planned to do some sound, but even with what we had we barely got the game finished and uploaded a few minutes before the deadline. Glad you liked the game though.

I love the idea, but the execution is so-so and there's not much to the gameplay.

Nice presentation but the gameplay is lacking. Could use some more ways of manipulation to make it a fun game to play for more than a few minutes. Love the LGBTQ implementation though!

Developer

I agree, the games only really fun for the first few minutes you're playing it. Thanks for the feedback :D

Cupido with bolas, love the idea!

A better execution could make this  a fun experience!

Implementing the whole LGBTQ spectrum would be neat and progressive!

From a design perspective, this would really benefit of a way of manipulating the people's movement.

Cheers!

I can't believe I didn't think about adding ways to change people's movement while I was making this. They do have some methods that cause them to go a bit closer together, but other than that they just wander. That would've definitely added more gameplay possibilities. Thanks for the feedback. Also, adding more than just 3 types of popups for different joins and adding more than just 2 people would be cool.

Interesting game! I like the fact that you have LGBT love in there.  The idea of using a bola sounds very original to me, but its functioning is a bit clunky.  Good work on making the roofs disappear so the character could move through the tents!

Ya, the Bola didn't quite turn out as intended. If you play it for a while you can get quite good at capturing people with it, but it still feels a lot like luck even then. Very finicky mechanic in the current state. Thanks for the feedback :D

Very nicely done. Love the different combos you can make!

Developer

Thanks. It was quite fun to make too. Glad you like it. :D
