I liked the interesting and comedic conversations. I noticed some typos which could have been avoided typing the texts into a spellchecking app first.

It's a very ambitious game idea with lots of potential! Well done.

I really enjoyed this experience, definitely a looping one! It was interesting to discover what people wanted to trade for certain items.  I appreciate that the dialogue felt relevant to today. The 3D models are really cute! I found it really interesting that the only way I was able to win was if I broke out of the loop by refusing. Quite poetic. Well done!!!

This doc clearly still thinks we are in an egg shortage.  Neat little game!  I love the bride's attitudes.

Developer

Glad you liked it :) Yeah he knows about this stuff, because he is definitely a doctor!

I had some issues installing via itch app, but it luckily worked in the browser. 

I like the concept a lot -  would be cool to have more area to wander around.

Small feedback - I'd suggest using different button for action and skipping the texts, or disabling the skip dialogue button if it is the last line of it. 

Fun game, congrats!

Oh, didn't even know there is an option to install via a itch app. I just uploaded a webGL build for the browser. 

Thanks for your feedback, the button selection was something I wanted to try out, but will probably adjust it to some degree. It is a bit confusing right now, I agree. The area will become a bit bigger and more detailed in a post jam version probably. I'd like to have the level to support the feel of each of the characters more, for sure. 

Glad you liked it :) Thanks for playing.

Love the art so much! I really enjoyed reading the item descriptions. It is funny haha. I was totally surprised when the bride pulled out a bazooka..

Art is mostly third party asset, we did not have an artist in the team and had to make do. I'm really glad though you enjoyed the narrative and humor ^^ Thanks for playing!

Lots of potential, seems like a moments' idea that just needs to be cooked with a little more love.

Developer(+1)

I guess moments' idea's is what I try to experiment with in game jams, sure ^^ Thanks for playing!

This was a great and completely unpredictable game.  I didn't know what to expect.  I have a few recommendations though:

  • White text isn't readable when overlapping the white dress, for example.
  • Brilliant artwork, but it could really do with music and sound effects.
  • Mouse cursor should be made invisible in games with first person views.
  • There was a fullscreen issue.
  • You may want to run a spell check, or is the doctor supposed to mispronounce words?

I noticed the white text issue right before uploading as well, we had some last minute shader changes, oh well. Sound will be added later for sure, your totally right, a game like this needs a thicker atmosphere. The mouse cursor issue is curious, it should disappear if you click into the game window. The doc is an odd character, but we may have overlooked something. Thank you for the detailed feedback!

I like the concept and the artwork! Nice job. It is awkward to play without any sound. I'd fly in any free asset just to have something in to amp it up a bit. 

Developer

I agree. We will add sounds in a post jam version for sure. Thanks for playing :)

Interesting game! I wish though you could skip the text scrolling animation, instead of skipping the whole dialogue line. Nice work though!

Developer(+1)

Good point, I will add that in the upcoming post jam version. Thanks for playing :)
