I've played a lot of switchboard games this jam, my own game included. And this one is closest to my own submission (mostly because it's also 2D) so I feel particularly "connected" to this one and downloaded it to play, even without a web version available.

And it did work fine. And taking into account that this is your first game this is actually a surprisingly solid submission. Even with sound effects and your own art with a consistent style. Very cool and much better than what my first games looked like!

I wouldve liked to be able to turn the book page with a mouse press also and not just keyboard. (The arrow in the corner made it look like that should work but sadly it did not)

I come here from the post about switchboard games as we also published one. I have to say, for a solo dev it is quite impressive what you have achieved. The art stile is simple but nice and the gameplay is solid. This game really just lacks a bit of polish like visual cues for when a call has been properly connected or some background music would be nice as well. However, as I said it is very solid for a solo dev's first submission as is. You should feel proud and keep iterating on it. Nice job!
