that was annoying, and fun. I liked it, small talk can talk, good job! :D

agamgad 2012-12-17 13:19

Pierre ! You did great job actually !! Was nice meeting you !

pierrec 2012-12-17 14:18

You played it already ?! Woah! You're fast!
Thanks for the nice words. I just uploaded a new version with some small typos corrections (I believe this is OK).

parapup 2012-12-17 16:02

Nice job on the game keep going :3

blockbrains 2012-12-17 18:38

That was pretty fun :D I swear i laughed out loud when the baby appeared! Cool hat!

tau7153 2012-12-17 19:16

Very nice, strangely funny! It's really refreshing to see a non-combat game!

geoege 2012-12-17 20:09

Really nice game Pierre, i laught a lot, graphics were really cool.
Like your humour. :)

matthias_zarzecki 2012-12-17 20:32

Nice one!

You're getting better at effectively conveying story and humor. I especially love the Naked-Gun-Style-gags, that are just there, and nobody notices :D

mava 2012-12-17 21:54

A nice and funny game!

tomvert 2012-12-17 22:08

Haha the backseat kicker made me laugh hard!
Excellent game, actually funny. Great sense of humour. Very clever.

norgg 2012-12-18 00:35

So, the game was good but the meta-game where parts of the game are quite annoying (like back-kicker puzzle and looping the game over dialog with some small enforce pauses in), but not quite annoying enough to make you give up is goddamn genius.

therestlesstaxidermists 2012-12-18 00:47

Awesome.

I laughed. I haven't laughed while playing a video games for ages. This rock !

dom2d 2012-12-18 01:36

Awesome! Had tons of fun with this one !

niavlys 2012-12-18 14:03

Wow, instant 5 stars in Humor, I loved it! As I already said, the graphics are great, I wish I could do that. You're a true pixel-artist! :) Excellent view on the theme, nice audio too.

amour-maternel 2012-12-18 16:46

It's not working, don't know why. I launch it and then it freeze on 2nd screen...Same for your previous game.

pierrec 2012-12-18 17:33

I'm sorry AnnaGavaldaKedavra, it seems it's a recurrent problem with AGS games. Sometimes, it works when you change the settings in the Winsetup file. I know changing to "Direct3D 9" and "run windowed" made it work on a Windows7x64bit.

pitoum 2012-12-18 18:13

Pierrec is still Pierrec. Great game again! I'm so jealous of your writing!

rhy3756547 2012-12-18 19:32

Really funny! Fantastic job.

tavrox 2012-12-18 21:08

"Ouin je suis un bébé, Ouin je suis un bébé" really deserves 5 stars for great humor :D !
I'm not fond of these text-adventure games and i think the random "2 sentences on 3 will make you loose" is quite annoying :/ Just not my favorite gameplay. But the mood and story really deserves good rating ;)

tavrox 2012-12-18 21:10

Being able to play "the people who annoy you in the train" is just great :p

ilo 2012-12-18 21:53

Really funny and terrific interpretation of the theme. :)

juniorus 2012-12-18 23:04

It's really a pleasure to see a new game made by Pierrec: this one is fun, with original characters/situations/writing... like the previous ones!
Each time I begin one of your game, each time I'm certain to have a good time playing this new gem^^

noyb 2012-12-19 01:30

Aaah, this is great! Could cut back a bit on repetition upon failure (clicking through the boss' speeches, repeating the setup of each scene).

bender 2012-12-19 15:25

This game is absurdly fun, pretty, hilarious and enjoyable from the start to the end! Feels like breath of fresh air.

volute 2012-12-19 20:25

Very fun ! great plotline !

bneutral 2012-12-19 21:44

Great as always.

azurenimbus 2012-12-20 02:14

...This is really, really good.

You would NOT be annoyed by my ratings.

conflictivelabs 2012-12-20 05:19

Brilliant! It was a bit annoying to retry a scene (watching the ending and the scene intro every time without a skip or something) but I truly loved the idea and the execution. One of the best entries I've played so far. Kudos!

benjamin-soule 2012-12-20 13:06

Pierrec, you could make money by making a 3-Answer mobile App for all the guy that try to pick up girl in trains.

Great game and fantastic humour, sometime making me think to Terry Pratchet.

fishbrain 2012-12-21 14:38

LOLOL!

davidemo89 2012-12-21 14:45

O.EM-GI! This game is beautiful!

caranha 2012-12-21 15:00

That was villanous. That small talk guy was awesome :-)

Like always, I love your spritework. This game was quite fun, and the dialogue was great.

It would be cool if more scenes had more than one way to finish them.

Thanks for the game!

arhpositive 2012-12-21 16:55

This was a creative and funny idea. :) The dialog was written so well. :) Overall it's a great game!

edocentrique 2012-12-21 17:38

Excellent !

pfirsich 2012-12-21 23:26

Perfect.

judasbenhur 2012-12-22 18:08

that was fucking awesome!

dr_soda 2012-12-23 05:30

I love this entry. I think the only thing that "annoyed" me here was the back seat kicker's stage. It wasn't quite clear what I had to do, and his intro animation was a bit long to have to watch repeatedly.

Otherwise, this was great! They epicly failed to annoy me.

carduus 2012-12-23 08:52

I canot run it on may WIn 7.
AM stuck on "enter title screen" T_T

pierrec 2012-12-23 10:42

Try changing the settings in the Winsetup file. I know changing to "Direct3D 9" and "run windowed" made it work on a Windows7x64bit.

the-jack 2012-12-23 18:33

This is an amazing amount of content for under 48 hours. I'm impressed. There appears to be a novel's worth of dialog in here, too. Amazing work. If you can do this so quickly you should get into doing a web-series and you'd have a bigger franchise than Penny Arcade.

I'm not worthy.

kannas 2012-12-23 19:48

ok. simply speaking? the game is epic! xD the kid voice is epic! everythink is vaguely epic!!

mrevilguy 2012-12-24 10:33

Superb. The headphones prank was my favourite. I swear people do that to me in the library on purpose...

kibertoad 2012-12-24 20:18

Excellent writing, innovative setting, great fun! I salute you.

marudziik 2012-12-27 15:40

Perfect entry, and I managed to annoy Ms. Twist quite well. :) I also saw the exploding head ending, and had so much fun, that I will probably show this to my non-LD friends.
Great use of AGS, as always. Very high ratings, and well earned!

van-merwan 2012-12-29 15:22

Masterpiece.
Take my money.

brotherst 2012-12-29 18:31

Great game Pierrec :)

saguaro 2012-12-30 14:47

Very funny, though it took me quite a few tries to deliver the appropriate level of annoyance. Great game.

csanyk 2013-01-02 00:20

I liked the humor and mood on this one. The sound effects on the train, too.

dedhedzed 2013-01-03 11:33

That was actually THE best game I've ever played. I particularly liked how restarting each scene could get quite annoying. Very meta.

ddionisio 2013-01-05 02:35

This game is brilliant, clever mechanics and quite humorous dialog!

mcc 2013-01-05 07:42

this was really cute!

jaj 2013-01-06 11:58

I don't think I actually gave five stars for theme this LD yet. I guess I saved them for this game. I had a lot of fun too.

jfroco 2013-01-07 14:38

Not my type of game, but it looks and feels polished, original and very smart. Gfx are great. Congratulations.
