I am glad that more people are diving into the depth that is the life of an NPC! There is so much more to NPCs than code or questlines. They are creatures with lives that we will never see. The NPCs are finally getting a voice!

I tried to play the game but I had to stop because I violated the law.

Hahah amazing take on the theme! I would have loved to get to interact with the player from the other side of the infamous Oblivion persuasion system, but I was not lucky enough to ever face the player. Such is the life of an npc

The difficulties of an NPC are often over looked, this piece of art perfectly encapsulates probably the most challenging aspect of the NPC, Bravo!

now we need a simulator watching a NPC being simulated by this game...

Most realistic game of the Jam.

Very accurate simulator, the game does its job very well.
Also fun tip for my fellow NPC breathren, if you press left and right very quickly after another it looks like you are doing the knocky knees dance move. You're welcome.

I too wish I was an Oblivion NPC.

This man turned the square moving around game into an actual game. A true legend.

It's stupid and that makes it perfect. You somehow managed to make moving around for no reason actually fun.

"Have you heard of the High Elves?"
