I really like the idea but sometime it's very confused
Was nice but was awfull. That me remember why I always try to miss the family dinner haha. Nice job.
No scoring? (best time)
Good little experience.
I quit the table but back at the start menu, no time for me :(.
The game captures the pain of having to deal with family dinners. It was stressful and I wanted to leave that table; what a success!
Visuals are super clean and charming, especially for a jam made in such a short time! The writing captures well the kind of comments we can get during those dinners. You even have a functional menu with sound settings? Super impressive!
Awesome work to everyone involved in the project, congrats!
I'm waiting to see who can beat my score:
