LOVED the art, the sounds, and the overall vibes. You've nailed that part.  The way you've designed your menus is also super neat, typing the first letter is a super easy and intuitive way to navigate. The gameplay was also pretty cool (typing felt super satisfying!), though I do have a couple things I didn't like as much, mostly centered around what words are accepted for each object. 

It felt like a lot of the descriptors I tried that theoretically fit the flower just weren't accepted even though similar ones were (the pink flowers are called pink flowers, but the dahlia doesn't accept "maroon flower"). After my first run where I really didn't figure that much out, I decided to go all in on using the help command and had more fun treating it like a memory game rather a "figure out what x object is" game.

Additionally, sometimes I added a space on the end or syllable break of a word ("dalia " or"holly hock"), and the game didn't accept that. It was a little annoying to need to retype. Not a major thing, but it happened often enough for me to notice

Finally, I would have really loved it if the "camera" and "photo proof" commands were written down for you so that it wasn't necessary to memorize them from the tutorial before even starting to play. Especially "photo proof", which I assume is a common camera term, but I've not ever really heard in this context before

Overall though, I really loved this game!! Played several times, had a lot of fun :)

Thanks for the detailed review. You mention some things I would have liked to add but didn't have time, especially spaces and many, many more words - as it is, I needed to hardcode them on my own and I would've liked an attentive player to tell me all the words they would have used to describe objects, I know it would have improved the experience a lot. Tooltips would also be a big improvement. My first fix would probably be to make it so you can hold backspace to delete. Photo proof is baiscally the quest name :) I am not that tech savvy with photography.

Happy you like the art! It's always the most fun part for me - well, maybe secondmost, as it's always great to see the first button push actually do something when making games, right?

Time really IS the killer in jams like this, haha. Totally understandable that there's stuff you didn't get to in time :)

Excited to play again when you update!
