Worst Party Ever by AnarchoApathy
Warning: Random number generating is apparently kind of wonky on the web player, but seems ok on the desktop version. Enjoy the clone party.
You're hosting a party, but it's not going too well. You have 5 minutes to keep the party alive.
WASD or Arrows to move. Talk to guests (Spacebar) to give them a little hype boost and get a random clue about their music taste.
Use your phone to post on Clucker and invite new guests or change music with the Bluetooth Speaker app.
Some guests are looking for love. They'll be disappointed if there aren't enough available people.

Good original songs in the phone.
Phone was a bit confusing to use bit I got used to it. And at first I thought I needed to press a button to talk to people. Maybe that is just me.
Great effort though and good job!
Great entry!
Also, character customization! Yay!
So yeah, it's a good take on the theme, and I liked the phone hub idea, the management aspect of the music especially. I had fun talking to the people and choosing music based on that (for my party, Bubbles and Rainbows was the clear favorite). Also thought the stylized art style went well with the theme and the generated characters. Had a hype time throwing the party, great job overall!
Once things got going it seemed like there wasn't too much to do - just enjoy the tunes and chat with people. I guess that's like a real party.
As others have said, the character creation was a very nice touch.
