This is one of THE GAMES of ALL time!

Style and sound design was super dope.

This was hilarious! The completely inconsistent art style just fit so perfectly. I'm baffled by how you even implement such a dialogue system, it's so in-depth. Would have liked more of an indication that the game had finished at the end though, I wasn't sure if it was over (and frankly i didn't want it to be over). Very impressive!

This is a nonsensical wonder, the writing is so good and it had me laughing heaps. Every character felt so right, was a bit sad that some of the characters cant be spoken to but it makes sense I suppose. Also the game started not responding and froze my computer after I sat down. I loved this, this is great!

Wow. Just wow. Definitely didn't expect this to be as fun as it was, but man I just really wanted to find a seat. The dialogue was great, and VERY thematic! A+

Definitely exceeded my initial expectations! I love how you guys approached the theme and relied heavily on dialogue. Figuring out how to move the passengers around was fun and the interactions are pretty funny. I agree with miraculousMelon, the game ending could have been more clear

The writing is fantastic. This gives me flashbacks of an era of silly web games I've been missing for a while.

Enjoyed the whole ride.

**Hello there, these are notes I took while playing.**

- Better file name? ("LD54" is not very explicit)
- Oh no. Mercy for my non-qwerty keyboard!
- Maybe irregularity in sounds' volume?
- If the main purpose was strategy and not dialog, would have been more practical of knowing the informations (or items) you have
- DEFAULT (when you talk a second time to the cat)
- Does it have an end screen? Guess it's satisfying enough (without usual "ha! You reached your destination")
