Thoughts are so hard to collect when you are on a date lol. super fun

Haha, the title is amazing. The idea overall is great too — how did you even come up with this? It’s really funny!

@fassenberg Thanks! I'm putting together a quick postmortem on this topic. In short, it was just a coincidence and a meme I remembered at the right moment, haha

Very fun concept and movement! but the gameplay is very frustrating....

Haha, great game! It’s a bit confusing at first, but once you play for a bit, you get the hang of the controls. The theme and humor are awesome!

I sometimes ran into an issue where I would immediately collect something again right after dropping it, which made it hard to deliver the thoughts properly. Also, some subtle background music with increasing tension could work really well.

Congrats on putting this together so well!

@anszwa Thank you! You're right, the music and sound effects really aren't enough. I even recorded all the voiceovers, but I didn't have time to edit them out. Maybe I'll add them after the jam :)

ahahaha, how do you know that I'm afraid of women?

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to launch it due to an error related to Vulkan. According to the rules, you are allowed to update the game after the submission date if it contains a critical bug that prevents it from launching.

Very fun, I love it!!!

I would appreciate more difference in words' colours so it would be possible to drop them right way.

Also, with some progression like power-ups or upgrades it would be a great one-evening game for a stream or a company if you add multiplayer!

This is hilarious. For full immersion, I recommend playing it at 2:00 AM like I did :laughing:

Playing as the last brain cell trying to save a guy’s date is such a funny premise. The thought‑throwing mechanic feels chaotic in a good way.

Very cool and fun idea. Great job!

Hilarious premise, little clunky but there's a charm to it, I think the controls could be explained a bit better and while the order of the spheres come out is fairly straightforward it might be best to clearly state that objective or to have the player initialize the thinking rather then relying on them looking the right way at all times, took me a couple of reloads to understand as I was too busy looking around.
