Thank you very much for your entry - I hope you had great fun making it :smile:

Interesting idea for the theme :smile: good execution - congrats on your entry.

I hope you'll drop by mine and give it a spin :wink:

I didn't expect a jam game to have full voice acting! It's very silly and I enjoyed it a lot. Nice job!

dk5000p 2021-04-26 16:13

@metadept You can check some of my previous Ludum Dare entries, almost all of them have full voice acting. It is a nice way to take a break from programming. Also allows me to have sound without music. Thanks for playing.

dk5000p 2021-04-26 16:14

@purpledartfrog I'll have to take a look. Thanks for playing.

I've participated in 7 LD Jams now and I can honestly say this is the first entry I've ever played that was fully voice acted! That, in and of itself, deserves a round of applause! Overall, I quite liked your concept. It's basically a simple choose-your-own-adventure story. While I wish there was more to this adventure, I think you created something fun in the time given. Well done!

dk5000p 2021-04-26 18:43

@fussenkuh Yeah, I mainly worked on it on Sunday, would have been nice to have worked on it also on Saturday and added a little more story, but wanted it to at least be complete. Thanks for playing and a lot of my previous Ludum Dare entries also have complete voice acting.

Cool adventure game dude! Cowboy-wizard-guy sure is great at fixing problems! Tried all dialog wishing for an alternative ending, but was a bit disappointed in that regard.

dk5000p 2021-04-26 20:24

@airwaffle Yeah, I ended up mainly working on it on Sunday, so did not have much time. I just was happy to have a complete story. Thanks for playing.

Spoilers: hey, that heart monster wasn't all that bad, was he?!

dk5000p 2021-04-26 20:42

@kristinamay No they were not. Sometimes being kind solves problems.

treslapin 2021-04-27 09:12

Voice over in games is always a hit with me!! This was a really nice small game :smile: I wish there were a few more branching paths, but I enjoyed the characters and the mood.

dorkulon 2021-04-27 09:13

Really fun little experience and a cool take on the theme. The voice over was super charming!

mizatorian 2021-04-27 11:48

Very nice voice over and the fileters? effects? on the other characters was good too. would wish for a longer story, but hey, its a weekend right? Thanks for the entertainment.

dk5000p 2021-04-27 12:02

@treslapin Thanks for playing. I also would have liked to have a little more, but mainly only did work on Sunday, so only so much time.

dk5000p 2021-04-27 12:02

@dorkulon Happy you enjoyed it.

gamefive 2021-04-27 13:47

I did it several times, but only game over came out. It was my first time playing all the lines in the game. Your voice acting was great. The graphics were great, too. It's a fun game.

dk5000p 2021-04-27 13:48

@gamefive Yeah, maybe I should have it say you win. It only has one ending, time was a big factor, it always is. Thanks for playing.

noke 2021-04-27 17:49

Pretty funny and kind of unique! Haven’t seen many similar games!

dk5000p 2021-04-27 18:18

@noke Thanks for playing.

picross 2021-04-28 05:54

Lol nice VO work! I wish there was a little bit more interaction but the game was hilarious. Nice job!

dk5000p 2021-04-28 12:14

@picross Thanks for playing, happy I could make you laugh. I also would have liked to include a little more branching narrative but there is only so much time.

simon-rahnasto 2021-04-28 12:39

Always fun with voice acting in game jam entries, good job on that! I like the light hearted humor, great job!

langotriel 2021-04-28 12:40

Multiple choice dialogue, hilariously self aware writing and an epic adventure to the heart of the body! So glad I managed to save the day. I was worried that the slithering creature at the end might put up a fight or that the guard earlier might show some resistance, but it seems everyone had the health of Billy in mind and got along, despite their differences. What a wholesome story :smile:

Always love playing your entries!

dk5000p 2021-04-28 12:56

@simon-rahnasto Thanks for playing and happy I could make you laugh.

dk5000p 2021-04-28 12:57

@langotriel Yeah, I didn't really want the monster to be evil, just misunderstood. Thanks for playing.

ghostmaple 2021-04-28 18:27

The VO work is a nice touch, and gave it a lot of extra character. I'll have to think about adding that to more of my future entries, it's been a while.

dk5000p 2021-04-28 18:44

@ghostmaple Thanks for playing and I always enjoy adding voice acting to my games.

jason-wilson 2021-04-28 19:21

That was certainly something. The VO work was great and the art style give it a charmingly weird vibe, it made it worth going back to try the different dialog options, and like any good adventure game my choices didn't really matter. :)

Great work.

dk5000p 2021-04-28 19:49

@jason-wilson Telltale has taught us well. Voice acting is always fun to do. Thanks for playing.

tigerj 2021-05-02 17:17

Loved the voices @dk5000p I wish it was longer but I know you did not have a lot of time. Thanks for sharing it! The brain artwork was great!

dk5000p 2021-05-02 18:20

@tigerj Always appreciate your time. Thanks for playing.

flipsy 2021-05-10 11:28

Loved it! Pure awesome. I'm a big fan or ear wax sculptures and never see them mentioned in big media, so great to see someone giving them the attention they deserve. Love the characters and voice overs. Lots of fun, really enjoyed the ride. Well done.

dk5000p 2021-05-10 12:22

@flipsy Thanks for playing. I liked eye wax sculpture man, too.
