This really reminds me of Reigns (which I love)! It's a great concept and really well executed. Awesome job!

Fun little simulation. Made it to day 32 on my first run. Will try a few more runs!!

nyxkn 2022-04-07 16:56

@iguanana Thanks! I actually went and bought Reigns after doing this jam to see what a proper implementation of this type of game would feel like :D

nyxkn 2022-04-07 17:54

@linus-lindberg 32 is a pretty good score! Glad you enjoyed :D

Cool realization and innovational idea. Very fun

tigerfinch 2022-04-10 11:32

great level of polish, fun game!

Very interesting take on the theme. Outcome of a lot of choices wal too unpredictable, but that is basically what you get in a real relationship. Sounds are nice, graphics are cute. Overall - great game!

nyxkn 2022-04-10 15:53

@jul-li hey thanks for the feedback!

Really fun game, the partner is so fussy it really is just delaying the inevitable! The options have a great sense of humour and the simple visuals and audio make for a really intuitive game experience.

zimny11 2022-04-10 16:55

Nice take of the theme! Some of the options are hilarious :) Good job with the game!

rickylee 2022-04-11 17:51

Great stuff :D very funny! I found a bug to click a choice multiple times and I think it stacks the effect too? but it wasn't exploitable because the choices have unknown side effects :') Great submission, love the fail sound xD!

nyxkn 2022-04-12 07:51

@mook ahahaha wow that's a glorious bug!! beautiful find. it's actually fun to spam click the buttons! though as it stands it's mostly a good way to fail Very quickly :D great catch, thanks!

fifut 2022-04-12 09:55

Some choices are surprising :smile:

Another original way to implement the theme. (Can not see source code without a gitlab account)

jzucc12 2022-04-12 12:49

Very unique theme implementation. Good job!

domin77 2022-04-12 13:20

Really fun simulation and its fit to the theme nicely. Good job :slight_smile:

nyxkn 2022-04-13 11:43

Hey @fifut, thanks! Turns out the repository was left on private. I made it public now. Thanks for catching that!!

A funny take on a theme with a lot of humor in it. Gameplay gets repetitive after a while but not for long as you'll run out of a certain resource pretty soon. Overall a very good job!

I was streaming my playthrough of your game. I didn't comment on certain things as my stream wasn't marked as mature content and wasn't sure what's safe to say :sweat_smile: Anyway, here's a recording in case you'd like to see it https://youtu.be/P3HI-2edlag

Left after 24 days, still counting it as one of my more serious relationships lol, Fun game :)

nyxkn 2022-04-15 11:23

Hah, nice comment @squaxcom!

amastryukov 2022-04-15 14:58

Great entry, reminds me of one I made quite a few jams ago called "Internal Affairs", also drawing some inspiration from Reigns. In games like this, it's always nice to have more variety of flavor text and options. Aside from that, it was pretty good overall, especially for a compo entry!

lecloow7 2022-04-19 15:56

nice

sacredbacon 2022-04-20 01:17

Brilliant take on the theme, very nice UI, hilarious choices. Managed to keep a failing relationship for 22 days. Great job!

On my third run, my partner said I was just as fat as the day I met them, on day 5.. so I left them! Best ending :smile:

Seriously though, very solidly made! I quite liked the losing animations!
