Love love love the presentation and narrative framing!  The pixel art is gorgeous, and the fmv intro is brilliant.  Excellent work!

A nice concept for the whole conceit of the world, that both manages to copy the actual interactive documentaries well (I'm not convinced the audio balancing problems weren't an intentional parody of the problems with the LRG interviews) and an excuse for the gameplay being a little underbaked (yet still interesting).

Genius format!The live action segments were fantastic and really left me wondering the deep lore they don't want us to know about.

Noddle and Noodles, a dream team ~ Had a lot of fun with this game. Loved the documentary presentation style, and the Asteroid's-esque shooting combined with the different Skremplet powers makes for chaotic and fun shootouts. Shedding a Goblic Endowment was a bit different to what I had imagined, lol! Top notch sound effects for those parts.

This was one of my favorites of the jam! I think the documentary presentation was really unique and really made this game memorable! I still think about it all these days later. I can’t wait to see what you make next year!

This was such a great style! I loved how you changed masks in the documentary portions to suggest changes with the story. The battles were hard! I had to change characters a few times. I also loved the title screen design with the timeline UI. It made it feel like we were working toward something and rewarded as players for beating each level.

Really loved the documentary segments! I picked the same Skremplet Kyle did, but was too stubborn to switch, and it was quite a challenge. Ms Cherry doesn't play!

This was a really creative take on TEHC's assignment; nicely done!

This was a really great take on the documentary-game genre(?). Fantastic presentation all around!

Got super invested in the documentary presentation of this game, especially laughing at my computer about the Hudson incident. I had to switch between characters because some of those bosses are very nimble (Harky is MVP). The first time I said "yes" was after the third battle... so you can probably imagine.
