Art style is old fashioned vintage looking. I absolutely love it. I tried playing on mobile and I got stuck on the sebastion part..i think if you add a tutorial or maybe your narrator part might have had instructions on how to play, that would great impact on your game!!
This is an interesting interpretation of the theme, influenced somewhat by the Egyptian concept of the weighing of the heart I guess? I liked the replayability with different audience members but not sure if there ever is an ending of some sort or perfect combination that unlocks and ending. Graphics are consistent in style and for what they are quite nice especially the characters - would of been good to perhaps have portraits for the crowd members as well I think. Overall an interesting spin on the theme.
visually appealing and done with care. A very interesting game.
Very fancy art/mood/style-wise with fitting music and a very interesting concept. The animations feel especially detailed and nice, it looks like you invested a lot of time here. Also I think you really nailed the theme.
Unfortunately I somehow felt a little stuck always watching the same scene with citizen A or B getting killed over and over :D I like the people running backwards train :P (I was warned)
nice setting as a theater, but hard to guess what you're supposed to do... music goes well with the settings, but the interaction sounds are a little strange.
interesting loops when you see almost the same thing each time
I have to be honest I had no clue what to do. I do like the music and the visual style, so I clicked "Watch the show" 3 times...and watched the show.
So what can I say? I had no clue of what was going on, but I did really like it!
Amazing! I liked everything about this game, and I find the ending very surprising. 5 start!
I think it´s an interesting idea but I had no clue what to do. The text at the beginning was displaying too slowly. It would be better if you replaced the intro with an in game tutorial, but if you leave the text try to make it faster and maybe skippable. I like te concept and the whole theater thing, but I found the gameplay a bit complex or I didn´t understand it enough. With some work this could be a really interesting game.
Nice music & nice graphics, but as @619tmsection, I have no clue to what to do :wink: I guess I now understand your question in https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/weighing-of-the-heart/question-changing-game-description-pages-post-compo and I totally second what I said there : do give any hints in the descriptions that might enhance the gamer's experience.
Really interesting puzzle game! The ending part should be skippable because going through it after every try to unlock the eyes was a bit too much
I was completely baffled and utterly enraptured by that. Wow.
*Edit*: That really was the most wild experience I've had in the game jam so far. Incredible.
I have to recognize that I found it a bit confusing even with the hints and most of the time "tested combinations" blindly ^^U Other than that, this game has a nice ambientation and I kept playing until I got the ending, so good job!
I found a minor bugs: when there are 3 of them and all deselected, Byron card would float over the hints.
Interesting and thought-provoking game. I wasn't able to figure out the eye-hint for the fourth person unfortunately. The ending I saw was logical but morally conflicted in my opinion. Good work on creating this thought-provoking game.
Thanks for including the detailed instructions, I had trouble figuring out the gameplay on my own. I did make it to the ending (which was really funny). The loop of the theater scene made it a little repetitive but I enjoyed the concept and all the dialogue at the end.
Very interesting! I got through three cinematic experiences, and am not sure what to do now. It looks like one person is rating higher than the other, but I'm not sure why, or what I should do about it? I like the art and music style!
