Me gustó mucho la comedia del juego, cada opción que escogí tenía un comeback inesperado bien gracioso. (Morí cuando dijo "soy furro"). Además de eso, el arte está bastante bueno, tiene este aire de novela visual pero aún así es bien cute. Lo malo es que me dió un error en un punto, a no ser que sea parte del gameplay volveré a probarlo más tarde.
Como dijiste, siempre es bueno encontrarse con otros chilenos por ahí. ¡Mucha suerte!
PD: Sabía que tener una imagen de un churrasco serviría.
One of the most hilarious and dare I say, terrifying games of the jam! First date's are always intimidating, but when everything you say makes you sound like a creepy shut in, things go from awkward to hilarious (as long as you're laughing at your unwilling host). I had a lot of fun with this game! While it didn't feel like anything you did mattered in how *bad* of an ending you got, the difference in various dialogue options and absurd responses for simple prompts was well worth it! The line about liking animals being one of the best examples. Good job!
I played through until I got to the date with the boy when this cropped up:

But up until that point, I thought this was a funny little game. You've done excellent work on the audio and visuals considering the tight time constraint. Do watch out for fitting the lines into the UI, some of them were running off the edge of the game's window.
But great work over all! Keep it up!
Yeah, all of that was a time constraint thing. We couldn't properly implement the ending so it always crashes, and by the end you're (spoiler) supposed to be dating our protagonist from the perspective of a clumsy girl. We will fix that and release a better version in a few days. Thanks for playing!
If you think about it, it is the apotheosis of your game's core thesis: the player wants to say something but the structure of the game forces the PC to say something else, undercutting the player's sense of agency and choice. Crashing the game just when the player's choices are about to pay off is the very epitome of "Out of Control."
Though I am curious -- and you may consider this if it isn't in the game -- do the player's choices in the first half have any bearing on the story in the second half?
The theme it's kinda a stretch if you ask me... Aside from that i really liked the art and the various conversations you can have... Definitely Good Job!!! 👍
There is still lots of improment the game can have, and definitely thing to explore, for exaple:
- What are the characters names??
- Why the girl is dating the boy?? How did they met???
- What the mom has said to the boy trough the phone??
- They will ever talk again after this??? (probably not... 🤣)
- Some rewind options, to let curios player (like me) to explore all the options...
- Some fast forward/skip options, to skip text already seen
- Some world interaction maybe??? At least some other background when they move...
- Some different girls
- Some text animation and sfx
