Same name game buddies haha!

Wow holy shit, this game was incredible! Blew myself up so many times and would do so again in a heartbeat. Someone else mentioned that this was basically a single player Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, and they're spot on. Basically every quality of life thing I could have asked for was there before I could even think of wanting it?? There was something meditative about defusing each bomb despite the time pressure. I took to taking a picture of the clipboard before switching to the bomb for the last two, though, as my sleep-deprived-from-game-jam brain could not write the instructions to my memory. Super impressed as well by the fact that you were able to convey distinct personalities through clipboard notes! I also got a sensible chuckle you invoked the noir genre in the opening monologue, with a little bit of lampshading at how that's not the expected genre for bomb defusal. The only thing I kinda found myself wishing for was some sort of acknowledgment when I defused all ten bombs. But otherwise this actually might be a perfect game!

Same name game buddies indeed! 

Thank you for the detailed feedback! The intro was one of the last things we added, we cut it so close to get everything in we wanted lol. Yeah there really should have been some reward for finishing, we had wanted to do that just ran out of time.  The  Noir theming really came out of how the table looked a lot like a detectives desk, and we just  ran with it from there.  Have a good time rating!
