Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous.

  • Solid framework and working prototype to get the idea across. Lack of obvious goal makes it hard for new player to understand what the point is. Setting and oil mechanic work are interesting but objective seems to be lacking.

Did you include your Game Design Document as a Google Drive link?
Yee

Seriously... did you include your Game Design Document?
Yeah but its not good lmao

Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes

Tell us about your game!
You're an oil lamp ligher acting as a checkpoint for miners coming down and have to decide on if you accept their requests for oil and reduce your personal stock or to reject them.
Slider on the oil lamp to increase how bright and costly your lamp burns but allows you to see who you're talking to better and if they're all as they seem.
You can ask each character one of two questions each time round to gain more information from them

Extra Notes
This was made almost exclusively between the hours of 1 and 5 AM. If things don't make sense, it's because they never did :)
