Great game. Had a lot of fun with this one on my stream. Liked the dialog. Ran into a few issues, bounced in a corner, was able to jump off the ledge and skip to the end. Branching dialog could do with some polish, I kept asking the same questions and the NPCs didn't seem to mind, LOL. I have the same comment about the font type and color, could do with something a bit easier to read.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! When, I created it, I knew their would be that problem of jumping off the edge, but I’ve kept forgetting to fix it. lol

I have now two issues open related to your feedback!

I liked the writing and the concept, but there were some qol that could have made a huge difference, mainly the text font/color and the platform elevators. Neat game!

Thanks for the feedback! Throughout the jam, I made a lot of changes to the fonts and the like, but it’s faaaar from perfect and definitely still needs work.

Hi! I opened an issue with my suggestions and comments here. Great work!

Developer

Thanks, I appreciate it!

Mac export does not work - appears the file extension is missing and wasn't sure which one it needed. I tried dmg but no luck.

Developer

That’s unfortunate. I have little to no experience with osx and do not have a way to test it at the moment. I’ll definitely look into it though.

Apologies for the broken export!

So I looked into it and it seems that the file is a zip package, but for whatever reason, is missing the file extension. So until this is resolved in the pipeline, you should be able to append a .zip and extract it. :)

Wow, very polished and a well thought out story with humor, suspense and twists.

One thing I found strange is that people in the 31st century seem to prefer platforms and jumping over ladders or elevators for vertical movement lol. But that doesn't bother too much.

It's a very nice game, one of the best i played so far!

Thanks for the feedback! I feel that I need to rework certain narrative portions, but I am glad you enjoyed it.

Haha. Yeah, elevators were something I scoped out, definetly something that should be added though. https://github.com/josephbmanley/the-connection/issues/5
