This was... quite an experience. I hope I will never match with that "Santa" again :D
The dialogues killed me! The disturbing part is how close they probably are to real conversations...
Nice interpretation of the surprise theme!

Nice interpretation of the surprise theme!
Certainly got the surprise theme, dialogue seems surprisingly lifelike to generic dating app and got a few laughs out of me! Shame it isn't a little longer!
Haha, the ending was pretty surprising. I felt uncomfortable flirting with Santa but this was funny xD Good job!
Good game, great dialogue. It was very funny. It was indeed quite a surprising ending.
I got a good laugh out of this, props to the writer! I liked the art and everything about it. Overall a great submission!
This was super funny, we literally laughed out loud. It's short, unlike Santa's little helper :smirk:
Lol I loved having that weird conversation with alien Santa. Good job doin it solo, I agree with others that I would have liked some more options and a longer game, but you did great with the time you had.
Yeah, I will be honest, I suck at conversation in real life so when it comes to making it for a game I really struggled.
Part of the plan (when it was going to be a longer conversation) was that you were going to have more options to gain and lose hearts, but with the length and my derp brain... (there is still one option to gain health and a couple to lose all health, but there could be way more)
Thank you for playing my game.
It's very funny, and the ending was great and definitely a surprise. It would have been nice if it was a bit longer since its a quite short game and it left me wanting more, but I understand how hard it is to make much content in such little time.
OMG. This game is amazing lmao. I laughed so hard while playing. I wasn’t expecting to be catfished by an attractive alien tho. I loved the lines.
Despite it is your first game jam as a solo developer, you did an awesome job.
Congratulations!
Goodness me my childhood is ruined
Okay nevermind so, art is good, story is fun, and music is great...I would have LOVED to have more people to meet but a good game nonetheless !
The "Santa's little helper" conversation killed me..... 10/10 dialogue.

Well that was a really weird turn of events! I do love the out-of-left-field ending. I felt maybe there could have been more variation in the conversation. I played a couple of times and tried different choices, but was always steered back onto the same path. Maybe something different with the graphics would have been nice too (e.g. make it look more like a dating app or something). Definite points for originality though and I was certainly surprised!
Thanks, the original plan was to have more endings and some different dialogue, but constraints of time during a game jam. I wanted to make it look like some kind of messaging app (so like they met on generic dating app and moved it to something like generic messenger app to continue talking (based the colours off the old facebook messenger design).
Thank you for playing it.
