This is the game about boys and girls, dating and sex. I guess. I don't know... Also it is about 'wake up alone'. That is all. I don't know where is the gameplay here.

Graphics came from Photoshop.\r\nThe original idea was based on the idea of \"You can do anything you want, but you can't do everything you want\" and was about chasing your dreams and finding out which one meant the most to you. \r\nAs this was a Game Jam, time was limited and I often had to cut away from the game. Within the last 6 hours I redesigned the idea into a date game that would fit into the systems I had already made. A jam starting\/ending 3 AM is not optimal, especially when you have other things to do as well ;-)\r\n\r\nThe name comes directly from my interpetation of the theme. A first \r\nimpression can go both good and bad, and is hard to judge because you don't know what expectations the other person has. A first impression you think was good, could have been viewed as bad by the other person, and vice versa. Sometimes it's impossible to judge how the other person will react regardless of how much effort you put into that first meeting. All these factors have been taken into consideration here, as everyone you'll meet have a personality of their own that you won't get to see much of during the initial conversation.\r\n\r\nThe game is 99% text-free, and everything is controlled by the mouse. \r\n\r\nSpoiler: There are five outcomes and three endings ;-)","title":"A First Impression"}
