I got stuck at the point were it asked you to click on paintings in the tutorial, I couldn’t click on it as it was under the instructions dialog box.

Developer

That's so weird, never had that happen sorry :(

You could try playing without the tutorial, it's pretty simple once you get the hang of it.

Submitted(+1)

it might be an aspect ratio thing… I am on a 4:3 monitor at the moment, going to try again when I can use my 16:9 monitor.

Developer

Awesome, yeah that's the only thing I can think of, it must be scaling itself over the painting option.

Submitted(+1)

nope, not aspect ratio… maybe Linux build… the cursor is funky at the start and some how the game blocked screen shot/capture [it just shows black in my full screenshot]

Developer

Oh man, unfortunately I don't know why. I didn't have a linux to test but the build worked for some people. Sorry

Submitted

Unity Linux builds normally work the first time with no problems, so it is odd to me also (even most windows builds work under wine for me). but there seems to be something odd that throws me for a loop.

but if I get it, the game loops is basically -> look over the profile, ‘memorize’ it, check some yes/no questions, click send.

Submitted

even skipping the tutorial, it seemed rather buggy in a not-very playable way - random black boxes based on the mouse position for example.

either something about the game doesn’t like my computer or I don’t understand the intended play..

I saw this in development on the discord, really impressive, great work!

Developer

Thank you!!

Submitted(+1)

Amazing game! Its very fun and the profiles look believable.

(You can also tell this was made by an inscryption fan :P)

Developer

Thank you! Inscryption is one of my favorite games lol

Magnificus Mod 3.0 Will NOT be releasing anytime soon. Do not ask.

Developer

Did you create it??

Submitted(+1)

Yes and it will NOT be getting updates on the REGULAR due to a LACK OF MOTIVATION

Developer

Well good job, that's awesome you made it. I still need to try out a bunch of mods

Submitted(+1)

Absoloutley amazing concept, with an equally amazing execution. I encountered some bugs while playing like not being able to press the "X" button on some ads, but I am willing to look over that. Furthermore I wish the music wasnt as loud, great job :)

Developer

Wow thanks! :)

The X out on the ads only sometimes worked for some reason, I can't for the life of me figure out why. Thanks a ton for the feedback!

crazy idea, nicely done, i just cant handle fast-paced games :3

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

Really well executed game with an interesting concept! Had a LOT of fun playing, the visuals, gameplay and chellange is all great. The only thing missing could be more features, but since its a game jam game, than its understandable. Amazing game overall! Gonna return to it from time to time

Developer(+1)

Super glad you liked it! I wish I had added more too, I strayed away from adding extra because I thought it would too much. But judging from these comments it would have been good to add more.

Thanks for the feedback! :)

Submitted(+1)

truly amazing game! nice visuals and sound effects, gameplay is very unique and fun but i wish there were more things indicating people’s interests

Developer

Thanks so much! I loved your game so it means a lot.

Thanks! I haven't seen that bug, but the mouse was giving me so much trouble throughout development. 

Thanks for the feedback

Oh  thank you, that's probably why, I don't have a linux to test so I just built and prayed it would work lol. I'm really glad it works on linux at all

Haha, this is amazing, really fun as well. I feel like Mark Zuckerberg!

Developer

Thank you! I'll check out your game too, looks interesting

Submitted(+1)

absolutely Genius

Developer

Thank you!!

Submitted(+1)

Really creative idea and executed well I liked the fast-paced gameplay.

Developer

Thank you! I was worried people would dislike the time mechanic.

Submitted(+1)

Really cool Idea! Loved trying it out! Maybe a little hard tho haha

I streamed over on twitch

Developer(+1)

Thanks a ton! I really enjoyed watching the VOD, thanks for streaming it.

For the difficulty it was incredibly hard for me to balance, some play-testers either found it way too easy or way too hard. I guess in the future I can add a difficulty selection. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Cool idea! Music and visuals are nice, also. Simulator of a Facebook employee :)

Thanks!

An interesting interpretation of the theme.  An accurate representation of the Ad AIs working for google, or I guess probably face book based off the social media pages.  Definitely got a little in tense speed wise throughout which was nice.  Also had some interesting variety of the little social media tidbits. 

Though the categories were quite broad, which I guess makes sense since obviously it's fast paced so trying to go deep into whether someone say, likes swimming or canoeing etc. is a bit too much in the tiny time period that your'e given.  


There are some nice twists throughout with the little modifiers that can randomly trigger.  Though I will say a bit of warning would've been nice.  It does make some sense to not give it away.  Something a bit more themed towards say, adblockers may have fit better though.  That's just an idea visually.  Mechanically though I will say it was a little vague on where they were and were not blocking.  Especially on the code vision that I continually got.  It definitely made it a little difficult to know where I could click as well as when it would be over so I could continue.

Though as I said it definitely did allow mixing up the gameplay a bit more rather than making it entirely speed based, it adds a bit of challenge of working around the obstacles that are put up to stop you.  Although the fact that there's not much to do if you basically had your answer already is a little annoying.  I'm not sure what, but if there was something to do to remove the effect or do another "read" during it, then that would probably help.


Overall though, an interesting idea with some nice execution.

Submitted

Nice !!!

Developer

Thank you for rating!

I love how this game turns the player into the algorithm, or AI. Hahaha! IT was super fun but also challenging.

Developer

That means a lot! Thank you

I never knew ad bots are real people; kinda feel bad for sh*ting on them now

Submitted(+1)

Holy crap, i suck at this....but what an amazing game right here.
My anxiety is up like crazy right now and im grinning ear to ear.

i cant really find a complaint other than maybe letting the player know they just started the tutorial, i thought with the text it was actually on the game and i clicked how to play.

even still, the tutorial was really really good and by the time it was done i didnt feel like i wasted time learning the same type of stuff over and over.

probably the funnest tutorial ever haha

Developer

Thanks so much! Sorry for the anxiety. 

I didn't even think of that with the tutorial, that's why this feedback is so valuable. Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

i think anxiety was the wrong word, it was more like fun panic! <3 but yeah that timer got to like...30 seconds left and hit me with a multiplier and i just froze smiling like "welp my time has come". A lot of fun for sure.

Submitted(+1)

I love the UI, especially the mouse!

Developer

Thank you! :)

Submitted(+1)

Wow, such a great game ! I loved it ! Everything was great ! I really felt like an evil AI trying to send too many ads eh eh.  I would have loved if you'd put more like/dislike interests to make the thing more difficult :) Really great game, congratulations, you sure will have a really good rating at the end ! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much! Really great to hear, especially when your game was so nice
