This was fun. I don't enjoy text games or soap operas in general, but I quite enjoyed this game (which I find quite weird lol).

I got only one ending. I can imagine just how much writing had to be done. Good job on that.

I got a second series! I like the theme interpretation.

I really liked that. I did, unfortunately, succumb to the lure of Zombies. Good thing you didn't put period piece temptation in there too.

I did get where you're going with the theme, but I don't know if I buy it :)

Very cool. Great take on the theme :)

Got a Sleeper hit.

Fun theme interpretation! ^^
It was really nice to play it! Just some times the background isn't quite right, but details...
First ending was Sleeper hit, then I got all endings =p

Great entry!

PS: + points for puppies and kittens

I can tell that was a huge amount of work. I like the idea and the writing was pretty good (if a bit long-winded at times, the comedy version of the last episode went on longer than it would have on TV for example). I did feel a bit disconnected from events, and I felt more like I was just taking in the writing than trying to achieve any goal with my choices. Possibly that's because I didn't have a reason to care about any of the happiness indexes.

I liked the music on the email screen, but I do appreciate that you didn't include any during the script editing. That made reading much easier.

Very cool entry ! Congrats ! I wish I was able to write that huge amount of text in a short time (even if it was in jam and not compo).

I loved playing this entry- great job on making it! Also, I got ending 5, "A Classic"!

Man, I really enjoyed playing this one :) I'm usually not a big fan of text games but this one has great theme, cool audio, nice execution and I found it pleasant visually ! You're definitely a super good writer, it's an outstanding amount of work for a jam game.

I liked it a lot, a couple more pictures would be really cool!
I appreciate the work you did, with all that writing!
(got the second season ending from 3rd time)

Awesome idea, awesome execution! First off, I was really impressed by the look - having struggled with formatting Twine before, you did an awesome job.

It was a lot of fun to pretend I was writing a cool TV show - I liked seeing the different genre interpretations of each scene. Overall, trying to please the various stakeholders was an interesting way to make decisions, and I had a lot of fun.

I played a few times and I can't find all the endings, but I'll just have to be happy with a sleeper hit. :)

Yay, second season!

Very good entry, I liked the take on the theme and the concept itself. Congrats!

Heyhey,

(I already scored the game last week, but I owe you a comment at least as well.)

Thanks for the support (& tip to use beepbox.co for the music) during the event (gChat go!). Also: Always nice to see a text-based entry (writing is a lot harder than it seems, especially if you've got different endings).

@'nintendoeats' ... I think maybe the happiness ratings show how close you are to various endings? Like you however, I did end up feeling a little bit disconnected. I think maybe the emails you get in the interludes & the game telling you 'you do some housekeeping' etc. where supposed to help with that where supposed to help with that, but the TV-series itself is cleary 'the star of the show' (... errr game). And that seems to push the framing-story out of the (heh) frame.

Something to be 'fixed' in a post-compo vbersion? ;-)

grt,
Remco.

Action Sleeper Hit, yeahhh - and the actors love me.

Great piece of writing & trying to balance different needs! :)

Very nice use of the theme and I had fun seeing the show being created and changing it depending on my current whims. Sadly with my first play through I did resort to the zombies. The amount of detail and the writing was also top notch.

Hi, nice game and congratulations ! We're realizing a video with several winners of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description
