Haha, describes me perfectly :) Thank you so much for trying it out!

I like the vibe. I would definitely like to do more crazy things to solve the problems. Looking forward to it

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! I would also love to implement crazier/more gamified ways to solve problems. And adding more problems too!

It made me not give up on the hot dog challenge so the theme is covered, haha nice game, fun and challenging

Thank you so much for playing and for not giving up! xD

I am a bit confused by the goal of the game, but the game itself is really well made. Very original too!

Thank you so much for playing and giving feedback!

There's not much to the goal other than playing the minigames, (maybe) relating to the problems, and (hopefully) having fun! :)

That was fun, the hot dog challenge took a bit to understand but I didn't give up and managed to complete it :) , sad that my first world problems weren't solved at the end.

Thank you so much for playing, not giving up, and giving feedback! I agree that the hot dog game can use some clearer instructions and will edit it once the jam is officially over.

Fun fact: We actually wanted to start with the narrator wanting to give up in the beginning, then transitioning to them not giving up at the end. We had 2-parter minigames planned out (1 = discovering first world problem, 2 = solving the problem), and then ran out of time haha. I'm glad we could save it by just keeping the first part minigames though!

Your plans sound good, the narrator wanting to give up would have been hysterically funny 😂😂😂

I like the idea a whole lot! Got stuck a bit on the hot dog game, quite challenging! Was very disappointed I could not rob a bank with Dolores :D

Also, huge respect for the detailed credits!

Overall, nice work, would be interesting to see how this would look with more content!

Thank you so much for playing and commenting! I definitely underestimated the hot dog game difficulty a bit, but I'm glad it sounds like you were able to get unstuck. We all wish we could go rob a bank with Dolores :)

Also, thanks for checking out the credits -- I thought no one ever clicked those "Credits" buttons xD
