You guys accomplished some really cool stuff with this! I didn't even realize there was more than one way to rewrite a headline until the end. It was fun going back through to try to find other scenarios.

This is such a well executed idea! I love it! The music can be a bit grating though, but otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed playing this and coming up with new headline meanings. I hope the team can fully flesh out this great idea!

The Tutorial (GMTK Jam 2023)This was fantastic. The music with the typewriter noises etc was great, I wish there was a volume slider or a mute button because sometimes the music skipping was a bit much but really good tone to fit the game well done. I was trying to find all the different ways to make new meanings and had a wonderful time.
played this with my younger brother, we were folded laughing. Please expand on this its sooo good. I dont even have feedback. Amazing work

Bad BowlingThis might be my favourite game of this Jam. Would love to see it expanded with more headlines!

Disaster CityLove it. The concept itself could be made into its own game and the aesthetic is perfect for it. Although, the branching choices could be made more clear

Dungeon IdiotThe art was great here. I liked the concept too, reminds me of Papers Please. It also took me a while to understand that you get two sequences of words to cross out, not just two words. But after I figured that out, the game made a lot more sense.

Timespace SequenceOk took me a little while to figure out I could cross out multiple words with one line (but that's on me, I didn't read the instructions properly). Once I had understood, I thought this was both hilarious and a super novel concept!

Neon ShiftAwesome game. Nice transition between articles. Reminds of the Daily Prophet!

Gmtk 2023 Mop The EscalatorThis game was superb and I am in no way jealous that I didn't come up with it. My favourite so far!

Cases, pleaseDamn, this game was amazing! Really fun and twisted to play.
I'm a big fan of Dadaism. The design of the paper was right in the bull's eye for me.
LOVE!
