Fun game and i love the way you interpreted the theme also!!! Play other guys games!! I am already going to get 20 rating received for my worst game!
Very original concept, a bit hard to understand at the beginning but very smart. I really like the atmosphere, not sure if I should find it funny or scary or both ! Good job :)
It's not very clear if the player's action is good or bad... It seems that I got stuck in a loop where the Speaker starts talking, and then instantly looks at me as soon as "Applause" is lighting up, and then I get the "Please, applause" screen whatever I do (clap, no clap, clap a lot, clap loudly...) and it starts all over again.
I love the creepy ambiance however! The audience slowly turning their heads towards the player is super unnerving, that's great!
I like your twist on delivery, the mechanics of the clapping were a bit hard to pick up at firs,t but overall a great game!
very dark. unique but dark. Is this a reference to any particular living?
the mood is set very nicely tho. I like the concept
@whywhy it was designed after a nightmare a member of the team had once, so yeah, pretty dark!
Very fun, creepy af game! Took me a minute to understand the clapping but after that I had a lot of fun. Leader was neat. đź‘Ť
Instructions were a bit unclear. I wasn't sure what I was doing wrong exactly. But I like the concept and the whole look of the game. nice job!
Love this interpretation of the theme and the mood was very unsettling—well done! However, I couldn't for the life of me make it past the first round of applause. Am I supposed to be following the audio of others clapping? The applause sign? Watching the crowd's animation? The speaker? At what point do I need to start using ASDF? That said, maybe failing to understand the mechanics ties into the idea of attempting to blend into a crowd. Either way, very nice work on nailing the uncomfortable/creepy vibe!
@michael-darling yeah, the game's readability could definitely be improved. when the applause sign turns on and other people start clapping, you need to clap along and hard enough until the speaker stops looking at you. however, if you clap too hard too quickly, you bring attention to yourself and the crowd turns on you. it's really hard to strike a balance.
Ohhh man, I felt that! Kinda. I think I shouldn't say more, but we are in this kinda situation right now. Couldn't get past the third round of claps. Very curious what would happen next, but I just can't do it. Damn, just like in real life... Solid mood. Good voice sound.
Very interesting use of the theme! I couldn't personally figure out how to not immediately get caught, must be clapping too fast or too slow or something, but it's very creepy and I absolutely love that.
Love the idea of this game and I like that it's super creepy. It was tough to know what to do though, it was too hard for me to read the room and the end screen took a little too long for me to keep trying.
Interesting game. Somewhat disturbing. A bit difficult to understand what you need to do, but I liked trying not to stand out too much.
It took me some time to understand what I am supposed to do (did not manage to pass the 3rd clap round), but in general it was very unique, smart and dark. Nice try!!!
Both interesting and spooky. I had a little difficulty figuring out what I was supposed to be doing, so a tutorial would probably help. Good work though!
I liked your take on the theme! It`s kinda funny and also disturbing in modern times. Simplicity of the main mechanic adds even more to the depth of the material.
Very interesting idea and super unsettling! Controls were a little bit difficult to work out but I loved the concept.
Wow, this was terrifying ! I hope no looks me in the eye next time I'm clapping ! Anyway really great concept, it's this kind of game I'm always glad to find in jams
I wish I could give 10 stars for mood this game is really really cool.
