Very interesting game. The first time I played i lost after only 2 choices, lol.

floko 2014-08-26 16:03

Pretty different! I like decision-making games :)

almax27 2014-08-26 16:52

Survived until the 'reprogramming' :( damn you humanity!

tanser 2014-08-26 16:55

Simple concept but I like the idea. The music was a bit too loud though.
Good job!

komiga 2014-08-26 17:02

Ooh, all-powerful AI. This music reminds me of old sci-fi.

Nitpicks:

- The text at the top is sometimes hard to read. The backdrop should be less transparent.
- I have to use my mouse to proceed? There should be keyboard controls for something like this.

cool little philosophical game for a change.

skywilly 2014-08-26 17:29

Really cool textual game, with a nice universe to develop ;)

the-lag-pack 2014-08-26 17:30

Really cool, not very often i see pure decision making games. The music really set the mood. Great jam entry!

zncatlaw 2014-08-26 19:39

Loved the feel and mood. Wasn't clear to me that the praise of humanity was required to exist. Kinda wish I could just keep playing through to the end each time and not be affected by humanity's opinion.

Little thing: partially transparent dialogue boxes with stuff behind them make it harder to read, especially when it's a series of white lines.

This was really good! I enjoyed the story, art and music. I wish things were a bit more open-ended but I understand time constraints. Good job!

aortastudios 2014-08-28 08:53

Nice! A game that stands out from the rest (as far as I have seen). Great submission :)

rnlf 2014-08-28 11:37

Yay, Tera made a friend :-)

Cool and different game.

liquidminduk 2014-08-28 11:42

nice decisions, great minimalist graphics.

ofursnati 2014-08-29 13:10

Short and good. Decisions are always fun. GJ.

lvyn 2014-08-31 11:06

That's great ! Love it ! :)
The music goes so well with it ^^

brassawiking 2014-08-31 11:22

Really liked the feeling of being above humanity and not letting yourself be used as a tool. Well done with the mood!

ohfiddlediddle 2014-09-02 15:56

Cool game, very nice work for such a short time-span. :D
I'd love to see an expanded version.

gladers 2014-09-03 15:20

Played it through a few times to see the different endings. Great game!

eemmbbeerr 2014-09-03 16:39

Nice game, but can you die? The comments say you can, but I won for the first try. Great music! Thanks for the Linux build.

nicepenguins 2014-09-03 19:29

Thanks you for all your comments :)

@Plash @ZNCatlaw Agree with the transparent boxes problem.

@eemmbbeerr Yep, there's multiple ways to get a game over :) And i'm glad to see i didn't export the Linux build for nothing :D

invader 2014-09-03 22:23

the music and visuals are really set the mood... I'm like back in 80s ))) Good job!

BTW, the download link says it runs on Linux - is there any way to run Unity Web Player on Linux?

nicepenguins 2014-09-03 22:29

Thank you for your comment !
You have to download it on gamejolt (same download link) for the linux version (scroll down below the web version)

nicepenguins 2014-09-03 22:30

It seems you have to do a little trick for the Unity Web Player working on Linux : http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/Running_Unity_Web_Player_on_Linux_using_Pipelight

interesting game, congrats on the entry! nice to see some story based games in here. nice graphics

cornedor 2014-09-05 19:46

Great story

goerp 2014-09-07 15:45

Great mood and a very nice take on the theme. The graphics were simple but all the more atmospheric and enhanced the sory telling.
Wow.

munkeebacon 2014-09-07 16:38

Good game! Very solid gameplay, I really like the concept of it. I feel like towards the end the dialog got kind of crappy, but that is totally understandable for a jam game. Nice job!

kristof 2014-09-07 18:38

Cool idea. I like the music and mood of the game. Some gameplay mechanic to make it more gamey would have been cool though. Still, good work!

cakencode 2014-09-09 05:38

Really unique game! I enjoyed the choices and, as others have already said, the visual and music were really well done! :)

handcraftedradio 2014-09-09 13:53

Wow very nice! Great atmosphere and interesting story. The writing was very good.

clownaround 2014-09-12 03:41

Awesome story. Liked the art style. Nicely done.

ponk 2014-09-13 14:03

Great mood and nice characters!

hypnohustla 2014-09-14 17:00

Great music. Reminds me of Deus Ex. But those were some harsh consequences! "Game Over" seems to be looming after every choice. :) Good game nevertheless.
