Funny story, we had a good laugh
Absurdly funny dialogue I wasn't prepared for. Good one.
I was curious about the dialogue, 'cause of the other comments...i'm not disappointed xD Fun little adventure with a funny story indeed.
Funny dialogue, nice!
I had a laugh playing this, brilliant dialogue! Great parody of pokemon
Nice parody game. I like that you allowed me to just trying to keep biting the turtle until i die, way to die kid :D
An interesting conversation!
Unironically fun adventure ❤️
What did you use to make this text based adventure? Is this some kind of branching dialogue tool?
@haayaargh
this is just pure js lol. The dialogue is stored in different objects, some of which contain functions that trigger when they're displayed
here's an example
"opening_choice": { "text": () => `I'm in battle with a wild ${pokemonStats[currentPokemon].NAME}. What should I do?`, "choices": [ { text: "Fight", next: "Fight1" }, { text: "Tell My Monsters to Fight", next: "monsterFight1", condition: hasMonsters }, { text: "Run Away", next: "runAway1" } ] },
Haha this was really funny, well done!
I definitely had a good laugh, especially fighting the Fallen One, lol. I tried waiting multiples of 37 hours by the volcano, hoping something would happen, alas, just my shoes began to melt :D Funny story, nicely done mechanically. Good job :D
Fun twist and parody of pokemon, simple and short, but reading all the dialogue was a treat. I have been informed that nintendo lawyers are on their way so watch out for that :\. Great game!
A fun idea to make a text based adventure! I think it wouldve been nicer if the UI fit on the page instead of having to scroll, or having buttons appear half offscreen at the top. I enjoyed the humor in it!
actually too good
bibbly accurate pokemon
would be really cool with funny illustration!
Always fun to see games made outside of the usual game engines! I see it works a bit better on itch.io than in the embed here on ldjam (which sometimes requires scrolling up and down to see the buttons).
i wanted to venture out but i got scared and kept turning back
Would have loved to see more, but enjoyed it for what it was. I wonder if Pond got shot down or not...
