The game worked for me. Great work, lots of content, and humorous writing. The game felt very polished and the audio and graphics were both very well done.

For such a short time you did a lot! I played the main story only but it came out more dark then I expected. The graphics and music fit very well. Great entry!

What does the triagles say? Yip, Yip, Yip, Ownn, Yip, Yip, Yip, Ownn.... haha

But why the main square say Yip? He is an anarchist by breaking the law! :p

But serious, I loved the game! The nostalgic game boy style, the music, the voices (Yip, own), story and quests

Great game!! :D

Absolutely fantastic game. The story was touching and uncomfortable (in a good way). Not sure if I'm missing something, but nothing happened after I got 33/33 score.
I'd recommend to anyone playing this that they don't try to rush it and just take their time to explore.
Amazing job, please keep making games! :)

i wanted to see where the story was going, but i accidentally hit escape and lost all my progress...
the graphics and music were pretty good, it looks like you created a lot of content in such a short period of time.

Interesting story/message, great graphics and sound too. The music did get a little bit repetitive, and a map would have been very useful too, but good job overall

A game packed with details, nice graphics and a story.

I don't know how you've managed to cram this much in there and there are some slower parts, but overall, very nicely done!

More than lovely entry, but I accidentally pressed ESC and that ended the game for me right in the middle. :-(

Great game, I love the story and the message. It has a lot of work, since the town is so big a map would have been great.
Nice job!

Really good story, it made me a little sad, the personas of the shapes felt very real. However, I haven't finished it yet, as I wanted to save the game as it felt kinda long, but when I hit esc to bring up a menu, the game just reset. A longer ld-game like this could really benefit from a save function. I might revisit it later, because its really solid.

Lovely. Great job on the retro aesthetics, and brilliant storyline, very zeitgeisty.

Really nice game ! Music and graphics and story are really good ! I like the fact that you can wander around in an open world like this. The only thing that missed was "the End" screen ^^

wow, nice entry! so much detail and polish! sadly I pressed escape at 14/33 and it restarted with no warning.
I didnt like the internet slang on the speech tho, it breaks the inmersion for me as I was pictureng the characters talking not chatting.
The art and pallete is brilliant. Definetly one of my favourites entries!
