I. LOVE. THE AESTHETIC. It nails that old retro GameBoy atmosphere. And the ability to change color palettes is great! One thing however. I was playing this game and I got to the part where you become a mouse and I was having a fun time, but then I had to make dinner, so I closed the application under the premise that it would save, but it didn't so that was a bit of a chore. Other than that, it is an extremely funny and charming game, and I hope you keep up the good work xx
Thank you so much! Yeah, sorry for that. I never implemented a save system cause the game is so short and I felt it wasn't needed. My next game (the sequel to this one) will be longer and will definitely save your progress ;) And I'll do my best to make it even more funny and charming too :D
Oh wow I thought the code for the secret passage are the numbers on the doors but NOPE, I have to watch a walkthrough only to find out I need to get to a certain bookshelf .-.
But overall I enjoyed the game, looking forward to your possible sequel (?) Plus I like the colors in here, like it's not hurting to the eyes (well for me at least)
It was. I found it very enjoyable. This is a well-developed, professionally-done, small, retro game. This was very fun to play. Thanks much to the creator for this. I'd love to play the other games made by this person.
I loved this game! It was funny and nostalgic with the sound effects and the things that happen made me laugh. Great job!!! I'm excited for the possibility of a sequel!
The game runs at like x10 speed for me... It's pretty impossible to navigate the world (even a slight tilt of the joystick / press of the d-pad and the character will be halfway across the screen).
Sorry about that, it's a known issue that the game runs too fast if you have a monitor with a higher refresh rate than 60 but I can't imagine it's 10x unless you're in some way disabling vsync. If it's the case that you have a monitor with more than 60hz and you still want to play the game you can temporarily lower it in your Windows display settings :)
Odd... I have two monitors and they're both 60 Hz (well, one is technically 59.946 Hz). (Also, yeah, it doesn't run at literally x10 speed... but it seems like it's at least x3... it's fast enough that I run past whatever I'm actually trying to get to / interact with no matter how subtle the press/tilt is)
After some searching I think I know what the issue is and didn't even know it was an option and makes it even worse that my game isn't framerate independent... I think in your Graphics Card settings your vsync is turned off (by default it's set so that the application decides but it can be set so it's always off) and yeah then I can imagine my game runs at like 1000fps which is indeed more than 10x the normal 60fps. I'm still planning on making a sequel to this game and maybe with that I'll also update this game to fix this though it'll be quite a bit of work. I'll make sure to not make the same mistake with the sequel.
Oh wow! I love this game. The graphics are so cool. I agree with the last comment that at a couple points it was necessary to search every room investigating everything... but I honestly I don't even know how developers come up with these puzzles so kudos to you. Very creative.
Also, I didn't know what to expect in length because some games on Itch are SO short. I was pleasantly surprised when it wasn't over in 15 minutes. It probably took me 30-40 mins, which is a good length for a game where you can't save.
Reading below, I am shocked that English is not your native language. The dialogue is so natural and funny. When I have to use my second language at work I spend ages checking what I write, so I know how painful it can be when you don't want to make any mistakes.
Thank you so much for the nice feedback! Yeah some of the puzzles were a bit confusing. I came up with them very randomly :P
Glad you liked the length of the game, it is indeed somewhere between 30-45 to complete which I think is a good length for 1 sitting :)
It really means a lot you like the dialogues! I spend a lot of time on those and I'm glad it shows, also that you find them funny, it great to know that others share my sense of humor :D
Thanks again and look forward to the sequel somewhere in the future ;)
Thank you for making this Game! very funny and enjoyable, also quite interesting, psychologically, i think. The searching for the phono number and dialing it felt al little bit repetitive, though, because its the same principle almost as the chore before. And i had to leave the game to write it down, because i didnt want to memorize it. Also, searching every object in the game for the code...i mean, there could have been a clue or something, where it would have been reasonable to find.
Thanks for playing and the feedback! For the sequel I'll definitely make sure you won't have to remember stuff again (the easiest way is to just make a photo of with your phone assuming you have one) ;) There was a hint, the painting where the control panel is hidden behind is of a man browsing a bookshelf though I understand it's not a great hint because you get it before actually knowing you need it... I might still update the game to improve a few things :)
Like your description this is a short and absurd adventure game but the ridiculousness of the game make me laugh over and over XD. I really enjoyed the music, U MUST UPLOAD IT ON SPOTIFY !!
This game is MASTERPIECE, can't wait for your next game haha :D
Thank you very much for playing, making the video and leaving this nice feedback! I might upload the music at some point though it'd be easier to do so on YouTube then :)
I'll do my very best to make the sequel even better :D
I found this game because it was included in the 'racial justice and equality' bundle and I just wanted to say that it was very fun and super cute tbh; but with the game being as short as it is, it does leave me wanting to play more! So I think a sequel would be awesome if you do end up producing one in the future! The puzzles were fun to navigate and I really enjoyed the music! :)
Anyways to end my little rant... this was a short but super creative game that was a fun way to spend about an hour of my time on, and I enjoyed every second! I'll definitely be recommending this to my friends! Thanks for the game! :D
Cute game it was very easy to navigate and would be a great from someone getting into puzzle games. I really liked how self aware it was. I think the ending was a bit hmmm unless there's another ending as well that I missed? It's cute but kind of wish there was a little more to it. Still really good for a short game.
Thanks a lot for playing and the positive feedback! I know the ending isn't the best (there's only one). The game is a reworked version of one I made in less than 72 hours for a game jam. I did change the end compared to that version but I just wanted to keep it the same length as I already had ideas for a sequel and just wanted to have a polished version of the first game out so I can refer to it in the new game :)
the perfect game for me--short with cool puzzles, cute character designs, and great dialogue! took me about 40 minutes and i loved every second of it!!
Thank you so much for the kind feedback! I'm really glad you liked the dialogue, English isn't my native language so it took me quite some time to write all of it. Thanks again for playing! :D
this was such a cute game! it took a while of me prodding around to get through some of the puzzles but it was a short and sweet game! really enjoyable!!
Thanks a lot for playing! The bundle has sooo many games so I'm really happy you decided to try Nonsense at Nightfall :) I really love cats myself (my next game is a platformer called Cats and Coins ;) ), That's quite a fun nickname :P
Haha, I'm planning on making a sequel where you will have an inventory so who knows there might be something somewhere in a box you can take with you :P
Thank you for this game, it was entertaining! :) Nice and short, with a bit of puzzle, lots of funny interactions & throwbacks to other games, and never knowing where the story might turn.
haha this is called a real game with story so exciting and it was all time interesting that I played in on go took me one hour but I completed I loved it I enjoyed it great work
Thank you very much for playing and leaving this nice feedback! I'm currently working on a little platform game with built-in level editor but after that I'll be working on a sequel to this game!

THIS IS AWESOME! keep up the great work and thank you
Thank YOU for the nice comment! Look forward to the sequel :D
this game was absolutely delightful. even if it was short it was amazing to play and i loved being a little flappy pizza flopping on the ground.
Haha, thank you very much! I'm really happy you enjoyed it :D
Oh wow I thought the code for the secret passage are the numbers on the doors but NOPE, I have to watch a walkthrough only to find out I need to get to a certain bookshelf .-.
But overall I enjoyed the game, looking forward to your possible sequel (?) Plus I like the colors in here, like it's not hurting to the eyes (well for me at least)
Just why we can't access the elevators ;-;
Haha, yeah that's still the hardest puzzle in the game, the hint is "the painting of a man browsing a bookshelf" ;)
Glad you enjoyed it and yes there will be a sequel, that's my new project! :D
Thanks again for playing, the elevator might just come back in the new game :P
Ooooooh that makes sense, didn't thought about that lmao
But yeah looking forward to your sequel
And I'm looking forward to that elevator lol
You can expect lots of references to this game in the sequel, that's why I updated it to make it more playable and remind people of it :)
Can I ask how to update the game? or I just simply delete the old game file?
I know you already found it but yeah just download the game again for the new version :)
This was a lot of fun!! I'd love a sequel !!
Thank you very much! Working on it ;)
Quisiera que este en español uwu
Sadly I don't plan on translating this game...
Lol, a aprender inglés se ha dicho uwu
I'm planning on making a sequel which will definitely get translated so you can look forward to that :)
:0 muchas gracias uwu
It's a neat and nostalgic experience, well done and endearing ! A short and funny experience !
Thank you very much for the nice words!
I really dislike the management... just let me get in the damn elevator ;-;
Glad you didn't try entering the elevator as the old man ;) Or did you? ^^'

Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it. I'll be releasing a new different kind of game very soon ;)
You're welcome.
This game seems promising. Solid presentation. I'll check it out.
I loved this game! It was funny and nostalgic with the sound effects and the things that happen made me laugh. Great job!!! I'm excited for the possibility of a sequel!

A quite nice bite-sized adventure game, and I must say, one of the few cases in which that ending actually makes any sense. :-)
Thanks a lot! Glad you didn't mind the short playtime and cliché ending :)

-Made a Video. (Old Video)
Thanks for playing and making the video!

It's a really nice game for only having 72 hours it feels like something with a lot more polish so kudos! I look forward to the squeakel.
...
Thanks.
Oh yeah this version took way longer than that! In case you're curious what the original was like: http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-35/?action=preview&uid=88589
Hello, I just finished playing it! I loved it! It was funny and cute! Would recommend to my friends. Thank you for this :D
Thank you very much for playing and for recommending it to your friends! :D
Great game! Clever, fair puzzles, funny dialogue, and honestly it's length is a strength as well! Short and sweet.
Thanks a lot! Really glad you found it funny and I totally agree, I also really like short games you can complete in one sitting :)
the perfect game for me--short with cool puzzles, cute character designs, and great dialogue! took me about 40 minutes and i loved every second of it!!
Thank you so much for the kind feedback! I'm really glad you liked the dialogue, English isn't my native language so it took me quite some time to write all of it. Thanks again for playing! :D
It's really fun and I liked the subconsciousness of the game! It's like players are also in the dream lol
pixel art sprites are so beautiful and adorable XD especially the mouse was so cute!! it was very enjoyable! thanks!
Thanks for playing! Haha yeah I love breaking the 4th wall ;)
Really happy you liked the pixel art too! You can look forward to a sequel somewhere in the future ;)
i loved the game so much!!! weird and funny, my favourite type of games xD
btw, the puzzles are harder than i thought!!! I spent more than 30 minutes trying to know the code D:
So happy to hear you liked it so much! Oh yeah that is definitely the most confusing puzzle of them all, glad you managed to solve it though :)
Adorably weird and fun game! Love it!
Thanks for playing! :D
Thanks. Now I will never eat a pizza again for fear that I'll turn into a video game grandpa and my room will glitch out around me.
And thanks for supporting the bundle.
Haha, even worse, that pizza will change into you and you don't exist anymore :O
Of course :D
this was such a cute game! it took a while of me prodding around to get through some of the puzzles but it was a short and sweet game! really enjoyable!!
Thank you very much for playing! Some of the puzzles are a bit confusing but I'm glad you didn't give up :)
Ah, this was fun! Got it in the bundle. Particularly made me giggle because a) I have a cat, b) Who is often nicknamed Nonsense :D
I may always wonder what was in the boxes...
Thanks a lot for playing! The bundle has sooo many games so I'm really happy you decided to try Nonsense at Nightfall :) I really love cats myself (my next game is a platformer called Cats and Coins ;) ), That's quite a fun nickname :P
Haha, I'm planning on making a sequel where you will have an inventory so who knows there might be something somewhere in a box you can take with you :P
Thank you for this game, it was entertaining! :) Nice and short, with a bit of puzzle, lots of funny interactions & throwbacks to other games, and never knowing where the story might turn.
Thank you very much for playing! Glad you enjoyed everything :D
Really fun game! The jokes were great
Thanks a lot! Glad you like my sense of humor :P
I really enjoyed your game. I'm looking forward to your next one.
Thank you very much for playing and I hope you'll like my next games too!
haha this is called a real game with story so exciting and it was all time interesting that I played in on go took me one hour but I completed I loved it I enjoyed it great work
Thank you very much for playing and making the video! Really happy to hear you enjoyed it so much :)
I loved it! Keep up whit the amazing work! :)
Thank you very much! :D
Really cute and fun game, I love the GB style, brings back a lot of nice memories!
I will look forward for your next games! :)
Thanks you very much for playing and glad you liked the Game Boy style! A new game is coming (hopefully) later this month :)
This is one of the most quirky and charming puzzle games I've played in a while. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to see what you make next :)
Thank you very much for playing and leaving this nice feedback! I'm currently working on a little platform game with built-in level editor but after that I'll be working on a sequel to this game!
