Loved the art and concept. Sound design was very responsive.
Mechanics and controls were explained well however it was unclear on the timing of when stamps could be used. Only being able to use one stamp on each file limits the strategy of the game in m eyes. Overall still enjoyable.
( if I am misunderstanding anything feel free to correct me)
Thanks for the feedback! You pretty much nailed it. We agree that we should expand more on how those stamps work and should be used. Look out for the next version after the gamejam that has this fixed!!
This is a fun little game with really nice mechanics. I like the big Help note on the side of the screen. The game bit slow in the browser, but I chop that up to how Unity builds for WebGL, I do recommend making a standalone build as well. The help board is simple enough to understand the basic mechanics at a glance; however, the stamps, excluding the good and bad stamps, might need a little more clarification or explanation on when to use them. The game has beautiful art, and I love the smoke effects when the characters disappear.
Edit: I initially played the game with hardware acceleration turned off, resulting in the game being a bit slow. Turning on hardware acceleration fixed this issue.
Thanks for the valuable feedback and the kind words. I saw 9k submissions, so it means a lot that you took the time to comment :)
We want to refine those items and upload as a subsequent version after the jam ends. Regarding the performance on browser, could you share if you have hardware acceleration enabled? It seems to be a hit or miss on performance for some.
It does appear to be related to hardware acceleration. It was turned off when I first played the game. When playing with hardware acceleration turned on, the game runs a lot smoother. It might depend on the browser as well, I am not sure, but it appears that for Chrome at least, it needs hardware acceleration to run smoothly.
I love the charm and aesthetic behind the game, and reading the different files definitely gave me a chuckle. Overall, the gameplay seems like it could get really interesting, strategising what to do with each person, but it currently feels way too difficult and luck dependant. I think maybe having 3 people per turn and the ability to view the other files in each turn would make the game a little less luck dependant. Aside from the issues with luck, it was quite fun to play, good luck in the jam!

This looks really fun, but I can't figure out how to leave any menus such as the information for the people or the computer. I'd love to play more but I'm not sure how to proceed.

It took me a while to notice the Help page, and for some reason, I can't use two stamps, I think? Other than that liked the game!

Hi There,
You can just "Right Click". I've added it to page comments as well. Thanks for the comment!
Ah, I was sure I had tried that but I guess not, thanks, I'll edit my reply once I play through it some more. Looks promising!
