Clicking on the "begin the test" button, and nothing happens?

pyrofoux 2014-12-09 03:02

@tpmxyz. The red buttons only works when the page is fully loaded, so you may need to wait a few secs before you can start the game. If it still doesn't work, please tell me which navigator you're using. :)

Excellent! You provide a great experience!

t4u 2014-12-09 13:59

Text loads too slwoly. No way to speed it up. I cant play it, too slow!

simon_simon 2014-12-09 14:04

@t4u : The game is mostly about the text...

We didn't want the player to skip every dialog to get to the end, it's not the point. We want you to read our silly jokes :)

Very funny - Took me a few tries but I think I worked out mostly what the buttons are. Nice idea, and the humour makes it great!

I really liked the dialogue! Normally I'm not much of a reader but the topic really got me interested. Nicely done! Funny game (: Just not really anything I'd 'play' for long, but that's okay! Also the style worked really well with the sillyness, although the graphics themselves could've been a bit better in my opinion.

Very fun to play. I only find the sounds a bit annoying after playing like 5 minutes.

simon_simon 2014-12-09 14:21

@Hwinwuzhere : Yep, that's what we thought too. That's why there is a "Mute" button :)

Really fun to play. I finally passed on my 3rd try with 5/10. I agree with t4u on skipping text, but only the beginning part. Once the test begins, I don't think you should be able to skip. But the beginning part seems to take a long time when you are playing a second time.

Brilliant - I love it. Burst out laughing when I told a mugger I love him.

pancakecity 2014-12-09 15:33

Great job! I love it, so much, I'm going to replay it a lot!

cyrus 2014-12-09 15:56

LOL. Nice take on the turing test. Would like to restart the game without waiting for the intro text though ;)

simon_simon 2014-12-09 20:18

A version without intro is now available !

ceosol 2014-12-09 22:42

Mark the new version as post-comp so people do not confuse it with what they are judging.

zkenshin 2014-12-10 03:47

Very entertaining, nice job!

tkf15h 2014-12-10 13:55

This was great! I'll go play it some more!

voider 2014-12-10 16:44

Great that you uploaded the version without the intro for replay! Enjoyed the different situations and humor.

rainshapes 2014-12-10 18:53

I love that you included a version without the intro! Funny stuff!

jjevil 2014-12-12 17:38

Quite humorous.

klianc09 2014-12-12 17:43

I really would have loved a speed-up button. I get your point about the game only being about the text, but you also expect us to play through it multiple times when one wants to see all answers, and then it's really annoying having to wait for the same text to finish for the 10th time...
The post-compo version without the intro made this a lot better, else I wouldn't have bothered playing it multiple times.

But nonetheless I really liked the humour. This is one of the funniest games I have seen this LD. :D
It's just... that I hate waiting.

Also, would it have been so hard to create a restart button, other than having to re-load the site completely. (My internet isn't the fastest, so reloading that takes again around 12 seconds.)

simon_simon 2014-12-12 21:04

Yep, we're aware of that and thanks for this nice feedback ! :-)

The thing is, time was a precious thing during this Ludum Dare and we barely finished the game on time... Next time, you will hae 146848415135187 Restart buttons !

Clicking on the "begin the test" button, and nothing happens? (on chromium)

simon_simon 2014-12-17 20:28

You may need to wait until the page fully load before the Begin the Test could work. A good way to see if the page is fully loaded is to check the "loading" icon in the tab corner. Still spinning = still loading

jupiter_hadley 2014-12-21 20:49

Quite the funny game! I Included it in part 13 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/yuPvpTdD-O8

ponk 2014-12-29 14:22

Funny :) !
