this was great, i loved it!! i wish there were more scenes though :)
Thank you for the feedback!
I'm working on a version with more girls and levels :)
That's an interesting kink you have, of being forced to wear clothes that expose yourself at the end! It's a genuine story for sure! Good artwork too!
As for recommendations, I would probably make the game maybe more DDR like for the challenge. Have button combinations to get down instead of repeated button hitting.
Otherwise, nice work!
Thank you for the feedback!
Totally going to add your recommendations to an upgraded version of the game! :D
Play: The button mashing definitely wasn't something I'd expected. I'm always up for a good button masher when it comes to PC games (and only PC games, I don't like wearing out controller buttons but I'm always up to destroy a keyboard) as long as it's not too long. According to other comments, it used to be 40 instead of 25- changing it was a good call, 25 is much more achievable.
Aesthetic: The art is super cute! The girl is drawn really well, and while the main washer sprite is just washer, the one on the end card has so much personality, I adore it. The color scheme is nice, and I agree with the other commenter who mentioned that the grainy sort of filter is very well-done.
Sound: None. (I hope. Otherwise, something on my end is broken...)
Narrative: The washer's one-liners came off more as creepy than anything else to me. If it were longer, it might have started to bother me, but as it is, it doesn't get under my skin too bad.
Horny: Definitely meant to be charged both in imagery- what with the win cutscene- and gameplay- what with the z section.
Kink: It was probably just meant to be silly, but the dialogue felt a little voyeuristic?
Stealth: Not that kind of game.
Harmony: The button mashing works well with the mechanic of washing the clothes. The z section is a little difficult, however, and it feels like it should have just a liiiiiiiil less drain/resistance/whatever.
Novelty: It's a new concept for sure, and I think it works, even if it's not the most serious entry possible.
Final Thoughts: If you wanted to make a longer game, you could maybe have a bunch of characters who live in the same neighborhood or apartment building? That way, it'd make sense that they'd all use the same washer, at a laundromat or the laundry room. Tried LOVE once, couldn't wrap my head around it- mad respect for anyone who can lol. Game thumbnail made me think for a bit that the washer was wearing a chef's hat for some reason.
Thank you for the feedback! :)
The initial plan was, as you said, have some girls sharing the laundry room, that is why the fist text says "today the girl who will...", but unfortunately one girl was all I could do within the time limit ><'
This is exactly what I was hoping it would be from the thumbnail. Short and sweet, cute art, and a good amount of charming characterization packed into the time it has. Don't know what else I can say!
I'm glad the thumbnail did its work :)
I loved the jam, thank you for hosting it.
The sketchy style illustrations work super well with the colors and grainy filter effect! The cutscene segments convey a lot about the characters with just a few sentences and illustrations. The game's a short one, but makes very efficient use of resources.
Thank you so much for the feedback! :D
A very strange and silly game with a very peaceful and lovely color scheme. The washing machine's one-liners gave me a chuckle.
Thank you so much for the feedback! xD
Okay I did it this time! I really liked it, my sort of thing... The artwork is gorgeous, my favourite of all the jam games I've played so far... Only complaint would be that I wanted more, I'd play a whole game like this with different people coming to wash their clothes in me... !!!
I'm glad you did it! :)
Thank you so much for the feedback!
Sorry, I had planned more girls, but with time running out I decided to go with just one, but I'm happy to know that you would play if there were more :)
This is cute ! I love the atmosphere. Hitting the 40's was indeed hard, I just managed to reach it on my 4th go but I feared I was going to damage my keyboard, hihi... Still a funny and horny little game !
Thank you so much for playing and commenting! :)
Oh my, I'm sorry for your keyboard >< Just changed from 40 to 25 *keyboards smiles*
Ah, it's too hard! I'm not going to rate it yet because I'm hoping you'll be able to patch it with a difficulty fix (pleeease let me know if you do!)... Is it just me..? Is there something wrong with my keyboard/fingers..? I just couldn't hit the keys fast enough to get past the first section but I reeeally want to play because I loved the art style in the small part I saw. :)
Can you please tell me what was your best score for me to think of a not so hard score to achieve?
Just tried again and can report my highest score is 24 on the left arrow and 34 on the right. I really don't think I can get any faster! Can you do it yourself? I'm worried I might be doing something wrong - just bash both arrows as fast as possible, yes?
Thank you for the report! :)
Yes, you're doing it correctly. Try to press right and left at same time, it should register both entries (at least I tried it in two different machines). But I changed both values to 25, I hope you can win it now :)
(Yes, I can reach 40, but just after 2 or 3 tries xD)
