He is, of course, playing Among Us.

Upscaled version for viewing:

This had me really tense about making the wrong choice - I was so invested even in such a short timespan! (Thankfully I got a good end.) The simple animations and illustrations complement the story beautifully, as does the music. There are some areas where the story reads a little oddly - "impossibly smaller," "tend to their morning routines" followed immediately by "tend to their educations" but overall it's a cute, simple story with an adorable protagonist.

This is adorable and the art and music go so well together! I love that everything is self-explanatory - and what isn't explained is learned through trial and error. I really liked figuring out each level piece by piece, and I like that the levels feel distinct from each other but still match.

This is a neat little game, although it's confusing that once you get to level 4, you only have the option to replay that level over and over again. I find the controls a little slide-y and hard to maneuver, but that might just be my lack of skill at games. I love watching the asteroids knock each other around though and the different themed levels are cute!

This is interesting! I liked the additional detail links, though I think it might have been easier if the additional information popped up somewhere in the passage - I was worried I'd been taken away from my choice when I clicked on the first one. Other than that though, it's a simple and solid story and the scene with the elephant really sticks out to me. I'll often hand my younger sister a stuffed animal to hold when she's sad, so that detail really resonated. Really great job!

This is still so cute and I appreciate that I now have a chance to get to know all of the characters and "switch routes" without being locked into one immediately. You did a great job taking this one to final! 

This game still has so much wit and charm! The buying then drinking potions thing is a lot more streamlined now too. Greensly is a cutie and I love the duck! (though... maybe not enough for that ending.)

My one tiny critique would be that I kept getting repeated thoughts when asking him what's on his mind - it seems odd that he doesn't react to me telling him cereal is a gazpacho one time and agreeing that it's a soup the next. Maybe making it so that once you've seen one of the thoughts, you can't get it again at least until you've gotten all the others might help preserve the "conversational" element of it.

I honestly don't think I can beat this game, but what I played was stunning! I love the pixel art style, the animations, the backgrounds, everything is so gorgeous! The controls are a bit finicky for me, like I have to jump directly on top of a ladder to go down it, but that's something you could fine-tune with more time. :)

This is lovely! The music, the little fireball and his animation, and the background, are all so simple and sweet. I love the "push" box as well - such a nice little mechanic that could return for future puzzles!

I like the story and the touch of the colors coming back one by one, with the music changing as each color appears. I did find the controls to be a bit finicky, but that's something you can fine-tune with a little more time. 

The truck rotating is so stupid but it makes me laugh every time. Your taco truck is super cute too!

This was wild! I'm not very good at platformers but I like watching the character bounce. Your restart mechanic is super cute too!

The bird spins when he bounces off things! Made me laugh a lot, but if you don't want that to happen I think you can lock rotation on the Z axis in the rigidbody collider. :)

This is such a fun and lighthearted game, and the pink color is perfect for it! Honestly the biggest issue is just that it feels too short, which can obviously be improved if you choose to revisit it. Other than that, getting your images working (perhaps finding a way to make the monsters part of the background rather than sitting above the text) would make the experience more immersive and enjoyable. 

Team Beelzebug all the way :)

This is super funny! My one issue is that it's really hard to read the white text over the black and white image, and the links are even harder for me to spot. I also would love to see some of your own art in this game! Still enjoyable to play; I love the humor.

You can pet the cat in The Void; 5/5. This doesn't feel like it needs much art, but I would like to maybe see the cat's eyes peering out of the black background, or maybe even an image of the violet light that we can click on to choose to approach. I did have a little trouble reading when I started since I usually keep my brightness low, but it's legible at mid-brightness. Cute game overall!

I love your little bird art! The game plays smoothly, but it seems after a couple test runs that my choices don't really mean much and there's only two endings. I'd love to see this world expanded on in the future if you decide to revisit it!

Oh dear! I just tested it and Reece and I can both do it... maybe it's just a computer issue?

This is interesting! One passage seemed to dead-end in no text, but most of it runs very smoothly. My one issue was at the end, with "stay quiet" or "use the things you brought", I didn't realize that I was meant to click the items in the inventory at the bottom. Maybe you could add a (click items to use them) or something to help make that a little more clear? Other than that, I love the timed elements and I'm interested in replaying to find all the endings!

This is a really interesting game with a lot of endings to explore and I love the epic feeling of each of them! There's a clear theme of kindness and not judging a book by its cover, which I love (and as a huge dragon fan, I love having the option to befriend them). I did get an error message somewhere in the red dragon fight (What should you do?) so my one suggestion would be to check your code for bugs! 

Interesting game! I'm glad that you included the option to loop back to the start at every game over, definitely makes me want to go back and check what I missed/try the opposite path.  I find it hard to differentiate who's speaking at times - probably something a quick proofread could fix. There were also some cases where links seemed to jump me ahead to a passage that didn't make sense narratively ("Okay let's give it a little while" jumped to "human rights law" even though I don't believe I said that I was a lawyer?) but that might just be a case of me reading too fast. Overall, a really interesting story and gorgeously done backgrounds!

The first option should be "I'm not ready yet!" which if clicked reveals the options to go back to the three areas. You might have accidentally clicked it? I'll double check though

Wow, this is a lot of fun! It definitely makes me want to go back and explore all the different dialogue options. Unfortunately, the game seems to have bugged out when choosing "I like 2D only" with the ceramics major - his image was on top of the text and I couldn't select any options. My one other note would be that your environment images were a little dark - I had my computer on about half brightness and could barely see the party scene. But that's just a little thing, the characters are super cute and I love that they each have their own distinct personality!

Greensly is still super cute! On my first run through I found it a little difficult to switch from buying a potion to drinking a potion (kept clicking a potion to drink it in the buy menu and then had to click nevermind twice to get to the drinking menu) so maybe having the option to drink a potion directly after buying would be nice? Other than that, it's fun, silly, and I definitely like the challenge of finding all 5 endings - gives it good replay value!

Just a quick note, an image in the "what's on your mind" in the duck ending is broken.

I haven't managed to make it to the end yet because I keep hitting the wrong options and getting a game over, but it's super fun and I want to replay it and find out all the endings! ...even though the contestants are all awful. That said, every time I hit a game over I end up having to reopen the game from Discord, so a "Wait I changed my mind" option on the game over would be helpful. Other than that, it's super funny, I love the art, and I hope you decide to continue making it "as terrible as it can be!"

Greensly is super cute! I can't wait to see more!
