I loved the idea and the backstory, now I know why they are so annoying! It's a really funny concept and I'd definitely play the extended game.

Shifty Dungeon (jam version)A funny idea, I like the vibe, but the execution is a little lacking. All the buttons have the same dialogue options and as the people below said, there isnt much feedback. There is a lot of potential tho! Gamejams are hard, so Im sure that you can still be proud of yourself. :)

Card Declined!I agree with all of the other feedback given here, some extra feedback between the player and the hero would I think make the game feel very fun. That said, I still got a good chuckle out of it and loved the premise, writing and the art. Nice job!

Under ConstructionI really like this idea, and the writing is very funny. I agree that there wasn't enough feedback for your advice; it felt like I wasn't accomplishing much of anything, since no matter what I told the heroine she never seemed to do anything differently (e.g. I tell her to pick up ammo, but nothing happens).

Beep Boop, How May I Help You?Very unique idea! Flipping a trope on its head is always a laugh, and the writing was spot on for this. I've never been rated on my annoyance factor before, but an annoyer score of 104 sounds pretty good for me.
I've love to see some immediate feedback to some of the advice I give, to create a stronger connection to the heroine on screen. Maybe have the standard list of advice, but then a separate resource/time-limited pool of 'urgent advice' that forces the some kind of noticeable effect or feedback.

Nature's BoundyThe idea for this game is really creative and it is presented nicely. My only criticism is that it gets kind of repetitive after a while.
