Any pre-made assets?
No. Just the font and audio files, if that counts.

How did you interpret the theme?
Well, the first thing that came up in my mind is a scenario of defusing a bomb. That process requires really careful decisions within a time frame, one mistake will be the end of your life and so as when the time expires.

The single-player version of keep talking and nobody explodes missed the instructions for the first time, but later found it. 

I think it should be included in the game or at least have a hint of where to get those instructions in the game.

It may be a placeholder for the cut scene or something, but I don't think the wall of text is necessary, a button to start the bomb count down and a line of text that tells the player where the instruction should be enough in the starting screen.

Overall a very under-pressure experience and I die multiple times before I success. Good job!

Thanks you so much. I found and joined this jam with 1 day 22 hours left. I tried my best to write the game at a playable state. Unfortunately, no in game tutorials were added, let alone a proper title page due to time constraints, so I thought of posting the instructions at the page and display a silly story at the intro for fun. Just let my mind go crazy. Hahaha!

Very cool game. Good that there is no such bomb in real life :D, otherwise defusing such a bomb would be a disaster

Developer(+1)

Yeah, hahaha! Thanks.

The game is really challenging, decorating everything you have to do for each bomb situation is a bit complicated, I miss a wow to play in the game, but it is still a very difficult and great game! good job

Developer

Thank you. The original idea of modules are too complicated so I tried to simplify it as simple as I can but too simple to be too easy.

Ideas taken from games "Them Bombs" and "Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes", both games require another player to read the disarm instruction in a document.

I see, you managed to execute them very well! you are under pressure, having to defuse a bomb in 2 minutes, your game is amazing man! I liked very much

Great submission! I had a hard time until I found the instructions were outside of the game, having the text in a "info button" inside of it would be interesting, but overall really fun. Good work!

Nice game, I think you should put the "how to defuse" into the game. I really love the red big button.

The game is fun! Very confusing and hard, but fun! I would suggest putting the decoders in the game and not just in the description, but I really liked it!

Great work, little tips for the future tho:

-Avoid a lot of text at once, is very overwhelming.

-Confusing played for 5 minutes trying to make sense of it. Gave up and only then discovered you placed the instructions in the itch.io description … you should really considering to keep game content in the game.

Developer

Thank you and nice helpful tips.

It was very close but I did it.

Really nice, although i think we all know it's basically Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes ;)

I'm surprised you managed to do all this in the 3 days we had, good job!

Developer(+1)

Indeed, it is. Also took the 5 letter code module idea from "Them Bombs" mobile game. Thank you for playing and feedback. :)

Always wanted to play that game where your friend has the intructions but I dont have frie-- I mean could never find time for that. And you know what? I had a lot of fun playing this! Although, well, I never managed to defuse the button (last module), dont even know if there's some kind of bug or I'm just stupid, so I wont judge on this. Other than that:

-interesting implementation of the theme(also not exactly original but who cares)

-fun to play

-that storytelling, lol, it was hilarious

-visuals are nothing special but they get the job done

-the biggest issue for me is sounds, there's no music, and the sound when there's less than 1 minute of time is really disturbing and creepy (also it could be intentional).

Overall, you did well and made it interesting. GG, literally haha

Developer

Thank you so much. I'm sorry if the last module is confusing, only the "PUSH" variety is easy.

Pretty hard game! I suppose after a few tries it becomes easier. Nice humor at the beginning :p
Good job! fits the theme very well
