Nice sounds, and speaking effects) I love it ^_^ Also a lot of dying at start is a great idea for this game, further was not so hard :)

Nice game, I like the storytelling aspect and the simple graphics are funny (reminds me of Canadians in South Park).
The dialogues could be speed up by pressing E, it gets repetitive when playing the game again.

Nice entry!

Nice little "choose your own adventure" type game with minimalistic artstyle. It would be good to be able to skip the text, especially on the second playthrough.

Very nice! i liked the game a lot. Very well done with the atmosphere and gameplay. By the way, I loved the metal rocking sound when the devil showed up.​ Good job.

I loved the art-style and i think the the audio really fit the content, the only downside was that i can't quite fully get the link to the theme. Despite that, it really is a fun game

Although the graphics need a bit more work, it's still a very cool game

I liked it, however it is painful to continue playing it, as you have to sit through each unskippable dialogue line over and over again, while punishment for choosing a wrong dialogue is brutal. Like, grandpa killed me because I said 'No' to his job offer. OK...

A fun little game, the talking animation makes me think this takes place in Canada? Haha, jokes aside, I did enjoy it!

Really nice storytelling, fun game to play and loved the choices part. Playing again and again to explore all possibilities was fun and didn't feel boring. Speaking animation a nice touch to it.

Wow! That was super fun, really smooth controls and the idea was real good. The devil is so evil though what the heck!

Fun game with a cool plot. I enjoyed my time with it! I do wish text speed was faster so replaying sections wouldn't be so slow. Loved the speech animation ^^

Nice narrative, liked the mechanic with the options. Just improving the artwork can make it an amazing game. Good job

Why does the devil want you to be good? That doesn't make sense. Otherwise this is a really cool game with simple but pretty graphics.

That was pretty humorous, I liked it. I wish that the story was a little less linear, because it felt like I was just watching an interactive movie, but I really do like the atmosphere you guys made. One thing, is I wish you could skip dialogue, because after dying, it would be annoying to read the same dialogue over and over. I liked the game, though, and the music was good!

Really would have liked to be able to skip dialogues :S

Nice and interesting game. I liked the story and the choices, maybe the ending was a little bit abrupt. Like others said the ability to skip dialogs would have been great for multiples playthroughs. But putting a checkpoint in the fields was really appreciated, nicely done ! ´・ᴗ・`

Thank you all for the praise and critique :smiley: Will take all this as a lesson for the next time. Dialogues were supposed to be a little annoying cause the devil is playing tricks with the player, didn't expect it would be that annoying :smile:

Funny game and interesting story. As it was already mentioned in a comments before, I would like to have an ability to skip a dialogs after death)
Good job! :)

Cool game ! The music was nice (especially when turning into the devil theme), it did get a bit repetitive when retrying the game a few time to see the different outcomes though. Speaking of which it would have been nice to have a skip button, it got a bit boring to go through the intro four times in a row.
It would also have been cool if there were a bit more variation for the different outcomes but I guess you didn't have time for more.
Good job !

It was actually very fun! What I felt was lacking were sounds. The feel of the game would be a lot better if jumping, cutting, talking or even walking would emit some sounds. The devil entrance was epic, dialogs were great, although sometimes I felt like there should be commas in some places. Trying out different scenarios was really fun. I'm not sure why do we die after refusing to help the old man with the second job, lol. Maybe the police in this world is too brutal XD Yeah, great entry!
