The English language lays battered and bruised on the floor. The sheer abuse it must have been wrung through to create this masterpiece is indescribable.

Defence CrashReally fun and creative, I enjoyed it very much. I just didn't understand how I'm supposed to pass the ending

HUMAN INVADERSGlad you enjoyed it! You can find the walkthrough here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-MIf6Sa7991N99oiaiapm25D6nP2ZAFtVYb0JiUWQ_0/edit?usp=sharing
Best game I have played! It's very fresh and new, I love the quirky writing and the different ending. The part where I have to censor words which changes the entire meaning behind the headline, insane. Really love it and keep up the good work! Really enjoyed this with my friends.
CREATIVITY IS THROUGH THE ROOF!!!

EB-87Very cool visuals and sound. Some phrases that make sense for me don't seem to trigger any image, maybe give a bit of feedback whether something is working or not

Noob Raiser (GMTK 2023)Bloody unparelleled aesthetic and vision right here. Great game, just wish there was more of it!

Unrolling Dice!I really liked the false ending that involved redacting myself out of a corner, haha. It seems like a really short game, but the concept was novel, the writing was cute, & the collage art panning around was really slick & striking! This is a clever one! Good work!

CellophaneReally great aesthetic and execution. Surprisingly difficult to figure out the answers too, I was impressed how many different sentences could be created.

FISHERFISHThe newspaper moving around + music is just amazingly done, hands down best presentation in a game so far.

Inverted Elements: Maximum CarnageSuper well done game. Felt very complete for a game jam game!
Submitted
The House Always WinsIncredible art and sound with a super clever use of the theme and game mechanics. I love how it can both be a puzzle and just a good time making funny sentences while playing censor. The newspaper zooming around feels so natural and clean.
