I really liked the fast past question-answer style gameplay, didn't manage to get too far, but it was tense! Only problem I had is that WASD didn't work, so I could only move with the arrow keys, which slowed me down a bit. Good job on finishing this.
At first question I thought the AI actually was cortana or an eqvivalent AI. I enjoyed the game and learned a few things at the same time :)
I couldn't quite finish the game but I had fun !
Wow mate I really like the game, the sounds are quite good ^^
nice for 48 hours to do the word processing... found that it didn't like miss spelling much, but incomplete questions still worked.
It was difficult to navigate using mouse + arrows, wasd would be better. Playing with the mouse on the html version it would go off the screen so I couldn't rotate properly either. The font was really hard to read, not sure if that's intentional or not. Also it seemed kind of silly just typing the questions you're asked directly to your friend. I ran out of time after 3 questions.
Mouse + and arrows was a bit tricky, felt like I had to keep moving my hands and getting all discombobulated. The music, sound, and voice-overs were fantastic. Really enjoyed the character expressed through dialogue too. Great graphics, was fun AND educational!
I got bored pretty quick, but the graphics and audio was quite pleasant!
Very cool concept. I think the atmosphere is great and the presentation is slick. You could have the battery on the phone reflect the amount of power remaining in the game. You could then just prevent use of the phone once the battery is dead - leaving the player to figure it out by themselves.
Anyway, nice job!
The movement was quite difficult, but it was nice to have a word processor. Overall, nice work!
Movement and controls were a bit wonky, and there was no clear indication of when I had the input prompts selected. The font was a bit hard to read as well, though I do appreciate that you made it yourself. Other than that, a good game, especially for the length of the compo. All of the audio is wonderful. Sound effects are good without being annoying or fatiguing, voice-overs are great, and the music is well done. The graphics are nice and simple, but communicate most of what needs to be communicated. Word processing works well, albeit limited, though understandably given the time constraints, and the sense of running out of power, though at the beginning not so apparent, becomes incredibly well communicated through the announcer.
Good job!
Very nice game! It was a tad annoying that even the slightest mistype would throw it off though.
I liked the game. Controls were a bit weird and I didn't got too far, but I'll give it another try later Great work!
i liked the idea and its a different take on the theme to any i have played so far but have issues over the presentation, it did not fit onto the screen through itchio but because you hijacked the mouse i couldn't use it to scroll up and down when needed. so like maybe don't take full control of the mouse like that
I ended up using my own phone and writing down answers in order to beat the game. Probably not how the game is intended to be played.
But on the bright side, I'll never forget how many players there are in a cricket match.
Interesting game, I like the idea of it. However, the controls are a bit annoying - it might be better to not have to walk between doors, just move automatically.
Your game is amazing ! The best i have seen for now. I really like the atmosphere and the concept. I am very impressed ! The only malus is that sometimes the font make the questions and answers hard to read :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
The game looked great and was super intense, I couldn't finish it but it was fun nonetheless. The chatbot wasn't particularly kind with spelling errors which held me up a bit, and it was hard to keep track of where i am supposed to be going so i ended up going backwards a couple of times, though thats on me!
Hey cool game. I liked that you could type on the monitors, I've never seen that interaction before in a game. The atmosphere was also quite good, kinda portal-ish. And learning new things is always nice!
Is the whole game timed? I couldn't tell if the power went down when I used the phone or if it ticked by all the time. I spent the first minute of the game looking around so if the latter, that screwed it up for me.
Fun idea however the controls were a bit jittery for me. And probbaly it would make the game to easy but i would liked more a multiple-choice version where mayeb your energy woud drain faster if you was wrong. Because if you have butter fingers like mine you might mistype :).
This is a really great idea and was super fun to play! Personally I would prefer WASD over the arrow keys, and I think the timer may have been a bit quick but I still had a great time. Good job!
