This was an interesting take on the theme. I liked it! I found it much too difficult to be friends with any more than 5 people at once though. I might suggest trying to speed up the scrolling, as it is much to slow right now.
Charming little game, really enjoyed my time and had a good laugh at a lot of the writing. It's got great animations and I love how it's a short and sweet experience. This could be expanded on possibly...
I managed to get 33 rep before I was overwhelmed with messages, cool concept! Although I wanted to scroll with my mouse on the messages screen but it was too slow. Good job though.
Cute game. I was so sad when I died of loneliness but this was such a creative take on the theme!
I can tell a lot of time was spent on the messages sent between the player and others haha. It could us another action needed to be done because the game is kind of repetitive. the scrollbar doesnt really work and is kind of frustrating to use. anyways, good fun for a short while.
@vedal That's a higher score than I managed to get - I think my high score was 28! Thanks for the feedback on the mouse wheel - was something that we forgot to increase before uploading :/.
I loved the unique take on the theme. I felt that the messaging system didnt'work really smooth but I really loved the idea. In the end I am still as lonely as befre :(
What a tragic ending! I feel like you enjoyed making this game, it gives off nice vibes.
I ran over my friends cat lol.
I was juggling so many friends that it was hard to stop and read some of the funny messages in the phone
@spice-cabinet seems that you can click and drag instead of using the scroll wheel, helped me scroll a lot faster
Interesting concept. Although it does get repetitive, I actually found myself playing more and more of it. It would be nice to have another mechanic to keep the player interested but what can I say? You made a game in 60 hours! One thing is that sometimes when you click the be my friend button it will make you move as if you didn't click on the button but the ground which can be frustrating. Good job!
I got 34 reputation before dying. I regret accepting all those 0 and 1 rep friendships early on.
I really like this as a social commentary on the nature of friendships today. The protagonist slowly transforming from someone who walks around and meets people face-to-face to someone who sits in the corner on their phone all the time.
I'd probably run over fewer cats if I got off my phone when driving...
Thank you @ayced! I gave it another shot and that made it much easier to manange!
Did You See That Ludicrous Display Last Night?
Fyi, It was not obvious that my reputation was a sum of the reputation of those I was friend with. I thought my reputation would increase over time just by replying to messages, by building up those relationships.
This is a pretty cool game, the messages are fun and the super relaxed background music was a good contrast to the stressful situation where you had to manage dozens of friends. The only downside to the game was that I had no time to read the messages which where pretty funny
Music was pretty good. Liked the idea of managing social contacts but the interface was confusing for how fast paced the game was. Maybe a speed setting?
