Interesting idea and great visuals, i think some bgm and sfx could really help bring the story to life!
Pretty good concept.
A good mix of control over what happens, and speculation.
Could definitely benefic from some sound and music though.
Unless, would that detract from the ambiguity?
It would certainly be a challenge to implement dynamic music in a fluid plot.
Cool idea! I do wish that the main storyline had a conclusion, or maybe an underlying reason for why it starts over at the beginning of the day; maybe the narrator doesn't want the story to end, so the character is trapped in an endless loop? But what's there is good! The art style and UI were gorgeous - well done on making this in two days!
thank you so much for your comment!
yes there are many things that can be improved or revealed more in the story. maybe in the future (?)
glad you enjoy our game!
This game was fun, I loved how it ended at the beginning. However, I wish that there were more paths and I am excited for you to be able to work on this more. I agree with Switecom that this game feels more like a visual novel instead of a game where I am literally playing as the narrator. Also one small note that I have is that the walking speed should be higher to match the speed at which the walking animation plays.
thank you for your comments!
for the animation part it's just a thing that we sacrifice in this 48 hours jam, can be better for the next time.
Nice visuals with smooth animations, shame you couldn't finish some of the routes. I also like the loop-like starting over of the game when beginning anew. I do feel a bit however, that maybe the 'roles reversed' theme isn't fully achieved as the game resembles more a visual novel at it's current state.
thank you for your opinion. in our head VN is we choose the character action, while in this game we only interpret what is currently happening in the story, if you feel that way maybe because our skill in writing is not that good. we will try to improve.
thanks!
it's a good story. i like it
thanks mate!
