ok i give up what's number

elizir 2020-10-05 09:21

Duuuude.. this whole "guess you'll wait until you know of which number i think" just stole 5 minutes of my lifetime.. i was laughing my ass off :laughing:

rex64 2020-10-05 09:22

Lol that was meta! Nicely done!

merkisoft 2020-10-05 09:23

i finished the infinate game! nice pick on the theme, nice song (but is it really yours?)

edit: since the song is really yours, i had to bump up the audio rating! well done!

seskon 2020-10-05 09:23

this was funny, good job :)

tayfun 2020-10-05 09:24

I agree the theme was really challenging. But you made a game didnt you? And it has really good humor:)

james-joubert 2020-10-05 09:32

Loved the humor!

THE GOOD: - One button game, makes it simple - The humor is good - The curiosity to know if there's more has been exposed :smile: - Player feedback/reward is great - Really stuck in a loop!

THE BAD: - I got a little stuck when the button vanished without any hints

zimny11 2020-10-05 09:39

@tradingbooch12 Look at the game screen, there is a number there :) @elizir I'm sorry to hear that :) Also glad to hear you had a good time. @rex64 That was the idea ;) @merkisoft Yes, I made this music in BoscaCeoil. @seskon @tayfun Well, I wouldn't call button press a game, but... Thanks you all for taking the time to try it out!

zimny11 2020-10-05 09:43

@james-joubert Thanks for playing. I'm glad you liked the jokes! And about getting stuck... I should probably put an important word in quotation marks :/

northman64 2020-10-05 09:44

Hey, so... Feedback:

This was fun! I wasn't expecting the "click Ludum Dare 47 button to progress" thing so I had to look through the code. But nonetheless I enjoyed clicking the button in a loop.

Personally, I think this is a fine addition to the jam. :thumbsup:

zimny11 2020-10-05 10:53

@northman64 Thank you!

evogengames 2020-10-05 14:37

Second similar game I encountered this jam, but this one was way better.

The dialogue made me laugh and there were some challenging puzzles along the way

GREAT song!

thank you for this game!

zimny11 2020-10-05 14:42

@evogengames Thanks for kind words! If I had started with this idea instead of wasting my entire first day on something that didn't work, I'd probably come up with more puzzles :/ but oh well, what other can I do than learn from my mistakes :)

albuquerque 2020-10-05 16:21

Simple, yet entertaining!

zimny11 2020-10-05 16:46

@albuquerque Thanks for taking the time to try it out!

schizoid2k 2020-10-06 00:59

Even though this submission was not what you originally set out to do, you did publish something, and that is a positive. Congrats! I did find it funny and spent a lot of time clicking :smile:

kittymac 2020-10-06 03:16

haha, nice

freeworld 2020-10-06 06:47

I had fun with this :D Love the idea, the humor, the simplicity and the interesting trick with the number! It's hard to tell when you're actually stuck for real :P I'm not sure if I actually finished all content, but after spending a few minutes clicking around and pressing all the keyboard keys I gave up xD

zimny11 2020-10-06 07:25

@schizoid2k @kittymac Thanks for playing! I glad you like it.

@freeworld If you pressed the button for 3-4 minutes, you most probably went through the whole thing. The more I think about it, the more I regret not having started with that idea. And thank you for playing :)

anomay 2020-10-06 14:26

There is no loooooop!!

Good neta XD

zimny11 2020-10-06 15:14

@anomay Yes there is :) Thanks for trying it out!

dyguests 2020-10-06 16:47

It's same a word puzzle game.

shp 2020-10-06 17:00

you say it's low effort but it's quite the memorable experience, shows how much you can do with so little, well done

pekuja 2020-10-06 18:26

That was more fun than expected. :smiley: I do wonder if I missed something though... maybe I'll check the source code. :laughing:

zimny11 2020-10-06 18:36

@dyguests @shp @pekuja Thanks for taking the time to play! This means a lot to me :)

milestone-games 2020-10-06 22:01

Unique take and fun even in this basic form, great job for such a short sprint!

zimny11 2020-10-07 08:01

@milestone-games Thanks!

neragoth 2020-10-08 16:32

I don't know if the story is true... that you couldn't make a game in time so you did this.

Maybe its a good point you couldn't, right? Because this is sick.

It entertained me.

And now I want to make you piss off again.

Now. I said. now. Gimme my game. Gimme. Gimme now. What? You thought you could won at your own game?

No way. I'm still here. Here. Heeeeeere.

:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

zimny11 2020-10-08 17:23

@neragoth Nice one! I'm glad you like it :)

monkosum 2020-10-09 13:57

Really reminds of a few dialogues in Portal 2, when you don't do what you're supposed to do. I love that kind of humor. Also, is there really a hidden game or was that just a joke? I played through the game twice just to see if something changed, but it didn't.

zimny11 2020-10-09 14:27

@monkosum Thanks for playing! I'm glad you like it. No, there is no hidden game. I only told this joke to troll people. I also was expecting that there will be at least one person who will press every single block in the background just to try if there is something hidden :)

jlv 2020-10-09 22:37

Amazing meta game ! It was really reminiscent of The Stanley Parable, and I'm glad people are still making like those, especially when the theme is so fitting !

Strengths : - Fun writing and twists - A bunch of puzzles

Possible improvements : - It is hard to know if you are really done...but that might actually be considered as a feature

Great entry !

zimny11 2020-10-10 08:27

@jlv Thanks! The problem with letting the player know that the loop is really done in the meta game is that no one will believe it :)

mrbamboo 2020-10-10 22:52

Hahaha really nice ! So simple but make the job !

zimny11 2020-10-11 08:14

@mrbamboo Thanks for playing!

spawncampgames 2020-10-13 20:49

Whats the number? ;)

zimny11 2020-10-13 21:51

@spawncampgames Press number 47 in the label "Ludum Dare 47" ;)

spawncampgames 2020-10-13 22:07

@zimny11 OH MY GERD! lol :thumbsup: :face_palm:

island-jam-2-group-3 2020-10-14 20:48

Nice and original entry ;-) I was stuck at the number and at the word on the title until I saw the comments here ^^U Now I am not sure anymore if I finished the game 100% D: xD

Good job!

zimny11 2020-10-14 21:50

@island-jam-2-group-3 Thanks for playing! Glad you liked it.

danielblanco3d 2020-10-25 14:18

LOL @zimny11 ,The game looks like a incremental joke and It makes you feel really stuck in a loop...Congrats! loop.png

justcamh 2020-10-25 14:45

Hey, I played your game on stream! It was a heap of fun, here’s the vod if you’d like to rewatch; https://www.twitch.tv/videos/781363405

Thanks for submitting your game!

zimny11 2020-10-25 14:59

@justcamh Thanks for covering my game and feedback!

@danielblanco3d I hope you didn't think that the screen you posted is the end and give up :) There is "more" :)
