Really nice (and sad).
The game is really well done. Story, audio, simple graphics. Good job!
Poor guy... :'(
Cinematography is fantastic. You really know how to set up the scenes, and the minimalist graphics play really well towards this (i.e. contrast to drive the viewers' eyes). Also a very clever (and as everyone else said, depressing) use of the theme.
Definitely looking forward to any other narrative works you make in the future!
This game totally gave me the feels. The use of narrative and graphics made this possible, good job.
The only small thing I missed was being able to control the menus with the WASD keys and spacebar since the whole game is controlled this way.
I am going to eat some ice cream and watch soaps now.
At first glance it looks very simple and generic, but while playing it kept me interested and has a great feel to it.
Hah, that was neat! Really liked everything about it :) Just one thing, you should've opted out of the audio category mate :P And... I put on a nice shirt just to impress her :(
I loved this one, great job! Nice entry
Whouha ! That was really cool ! The rise is pressure was really well done : my heartbeat rate was increasing, and I felt numb with emotion as the character approached the desk.
Despite the graphics being very simple, they were very efficient.
Stupid thing however : during the whole the story, I had the feeling that my character had no pants. With each encounter, I was chuckling, wondering what would the other think of my character moving around half naked...
I love the atmosphere in this one, totally pulled you in! I liked the fact that it looked like you were given some agency throughout, but none of it mattered in the end... :D, in a kind of melancholic like kind of way.
Nice work :)
Wow, you definitely nailed mood. I'm a bit confused what the theme was, what was worse the more you had - nerves to talk to the girl?
The linear progression reminded me a little bit of Thirty Flights of Loving. Nice job!
This was a fantastically written little game! I was so engaged. I loved the simplistic graphics and the shaking room when he was approaching the desk, it really worked well with the buildup of the story. Fantastic submission! :smile:
I liked the mood and music here. That was a rather melancholic ending. I wonder if it said something about me that I actually tried to run from the desk once the screen started shaking.
What a great experience. Well written and the mood is perfect. The graphics are simple but they work. The style with the muted background is so good for a short jam. The best thing, though, is how the character doesn't wear pants.
