Great interpretation of the theme :) But easily my favorite part was the little phrases "He's a spicy gogurt" really had me giggling for some reason, haha.

I"m on a netbook and a tiny tiny part of the screen wasn't visible. But after a match the text didn't seem to go away? But I could still hit the 'match' button behind it. I assume I was just missing the dismiss button because of the bottom part of the screen ... but it didn't hinder the game play at all because I could still hit the match button.

Really cute. Art style and overall humor went really well together. The little references -- "Bort" -- very funny.

Liked the challenge escalation, although in terms of balance it might have been good to increase the bad-match penalty. Once I had built up some Rep, I could pretty much just randomly match people together for a while and just about break even.

This game is super adorable, I like how there is almost never any perfect matches.
maybe that's the metaphor their worlds may be connected but they are still different worlds.

Really nice style! Love the humor too x)

Very nice and cute! Meaningful too I feel, though I can't put to words why yet.

"She's such a spicy meatball!" haha!

the game was ok, and i like the title screen ;) but pressing 'done' after each match was a bit annoying

It was enjoyable to play cupid. Several times I forgot to clear the happy couple before looking to make the next match. The UI could be improved.

A somewhat unique game among LD... it was a bit refreshing. I like your interpretation of the theme. The round were a bit long IMO, and clicking the Done button felt a bit frustrating when you're working against a time limit.

Excellent sprites that really boosted the feel of the game. Music helped a bit with that too.

It definitely could use some more varied game play mechanics, but a nice submission overall.

I enjoyed this game very much, and it was easy to play from my tablet. I was pleasantly surprised with the increase in difficulty as I progressed, and the humor kept me engaged. Great take on the theme.

A refreshing take on the theme. Apart for long game rounds, i enjoyed this
