The audio is gorgeous the theme is quite Innovative and I had a lot of fun playing it big ups to the producer and the voice actors the only thing I didnt enjoy that much was the graphics but graphics are I.M.O. the least important thing in a game (i'm not saying it's not important but I prefer gameplay over graphics and you gave the gameplay) good job with this entry from the 6 games I already played this was the best

I enjoy how the philosophy starts going 'off the rails' into absurd statements.

Only at 53 right now, but I already love it.

@feiko the music is Kevin MacLeod, we did everything but that
@demetri I have no idea what you mean... none at all..
Anonymous I won't fault you for posting anonymously, we understand
Wow! I did not expect to hear nearly that many fully voiced variations. Really impressed with the work put into this, and quite funny as well :)

You lost me when I had to choose between a "Puppy" and a "Puppy :heart: " :smile: Amazing idea though, loved it a lot - I enjoyed the voiceovers, too, first time I see something like this! Great job. :) Also, it's sooooo funny! Like extremely funny! Art is also great!

Loved the naration and cool connection to the theme.

Holy moly what a trip! I had multiple belly laughs playing this game - it's easily the funniest of the Jam for me! TIL: I am a terrible person :smile: Keep doing what you do - I would pay to play another game from y'all!

I am confused and I love it
So, I got to 63 and it hasn't changed in a bit. but I enjoyed myself along the way, I think famous misquotes are my new favorite thing

@alpharock6 we wanted to do something different for this jam, we hope we've succeeded :smile:
@tamail achieving moral excellence requires difficult choices, good on you for pushing through!
@tryston thanks, voice is a new thing we wanted to try adding
@riroriro terrible? maybe, moral? definitely, your certificate of morality should be in the mail soon
@mafgar Confuseus says "He who isn't confused has learned nothing"
@unhandyred weird, you should have been finished in 15 rounds, let me check in with the boys in the lab and I'll get back to you
It's become really trippy and I'm still coming across new quotes and dialogues! How much content is there? Good effort and funny.

@anant-ahuja I think we have something like 54 voice audio files that we actually used and quite a few transitions and a few audio files that didn't even make it in

This game was unlike anything I'd ever played before, and it executed so, so well. I couldn't stop playing, much to the chagrin of the narrators, as each round just got better and better. Supremely hilarious game, fantastic concept, superb voice acting and writing, and just a joy to play!
Ha ha, thanks to you, I discover the great philosopher Potato, I really like his view on wealth ;)
Ok I got to 42 and decided maybe it's time to stop :D Tbf, it took me a little while to remember the theme is 'loop' so I probably won't get to the end with this one :D But even after realising that I kept going :D The narration/dialogue kept it very interesting :D I love that even after 40 I still heard new lines, and that with time the quotes are changed too. Had to stop because the visuals got so distorted they made me dizzy, but I do wonder how much more content would there be after that :P Great job on this one :) Definitely kept me in a loop :D And made me question my morals xP

I have no idea what is going on.
Plato and Heidegger are great minds — don't let politics get you down.
