Special concept & unique art style! Even though I couldn’t find some customers’ weak spots.

Super unique concept! Fits the narrative of someone being coerced into speed dating. The artwork is great!

Submitted(+2)

A super stylish and intriguing game. It makes me want to confuse more people, look closely at everyone, and read everything! The narrative is excellent

Submitted(+2)

the artwork is beautiful and feels very polished, i like that there are many different characters with different vibes around, my best score is 9 haha, probably need insane RNG to get to the second digit

Submitted(+2)

Oh, this was so much fun. Great concept, excellent art, super engaging. 67/67 rejected!

why is that one lookingm like spoge bob

I loved the art, great job! :D

Submitted(+2)

The pixel art is nice and the character designs are really cool and varied
The concept is interesting as well, fun and well executed
I'm especially fond of the introduction/tutorial asking you to focus on the "don't stare"

hey, guys! superbly beautiful game. i enjoyed watching @rheia streaming it today ~the 40 min mark where she is great at making people uncomfortable. THIS might sum it up :)

nice job!

Developer

Haha that's awesome. Thanks for the video link thats so funny. Glad you enjoyed the game!

Amazing visuals and art! Cool concept too! I'm not really good at this though, I got kicked quite a few times, hahaha

As a semi-professional awkward person I had higher expectations for myself to be better at this. Great idea, really fun, interested in how many unique dating profiles/people/things there are :D 

Developer

Haha thank you! It's all about speed of awkwardness in the end because of the theme time limit.

My mother raised me as a respectful boy who doesn’t stare at others... Jokes aside, what a great concept and game! Everything feels so polished, and I just love every single character design and how unique they are. I was also not expecting to catch so many references, especially Hunter x Hunter.

You're too kind! Also, Lynyrd Skynyrd reference with this comment/your usename?

Submitted(+1)

To be fair, I already had the username Simpl3 before I listened Lynyrd Skynyrd, but there is a reason why I changed it to Simpl3mn.

My record, the game is really fun, the art is good and there's a lot of different characters.

Developer

haha yeah we're not sure if a score of 11 is physically possible, but thats the current community goal

The game looks and plays amazingly. The art and characters are gorgeous. It actually does the hard part: showing rather than telling. There is very little text, and most of the gameplay is actually showing the things for you to figure out yourself. A very well-crafted experience.

Developer(+1)

That is such an amazing and high compliment. We really appreciate it! And are so glad you took the time to play

Submitted(+2)

This is absolutely incredible concept. I loved the quick thinking and I'm someone who never sees the flaws in people I go out with, but this definitely highlights that. Art, and gameplay is top notch! Wonderful job! :)

Developer(+1)

This is like an anti-game for you then haha. Glad you enjoyed it

Simple concept, but pretty interesting - fits the 20s theme like a glove. Some "objectives" were quite clever and took me off-guard, like the person with a game screenshot for a head - it was fun to figure that one out. Too bad you can't stare off the bouncer...

Developer(+1)

We were really proud of the screenshot head, one of my personal favs. Thanks so much for playing!

Developer(+1)

PS: maybe we'll add the bouncer in the dlc ;)

Submitted(+2)

A true masterpiece! The idea is great, the art is amazing, the game is polished to the top! And there are 67 character?! You put so much work into this and you did AMAZING! Great work guys! 

Submitted(+2)

This is straight-up absolute cinema!!! I haven’t wanted to rate a game 5 stars this fast in a long time. I love everything about it—the idea, the art style, the main menu, omg!! Just SO good.

Submitted(+2)

Love the art, especially how all the characters are so unique, and WOW, 67 is A LOT of characters. Anyway, the idea is also cool. Funny how this feels more like a gacha collectibles game than a high-score earning game.

Submitted(+2)

Everything about this game is amazing. The parallax, the simple but so effective story, all the character design. No notes. Please make more of these. I would also love to see a full game where you have to discover and deduce the "stare spots" instead of a UI hint. As is, 10/10

Developer

What a kind comment! Thank you so much for playing!
