Really beautiful design, clear and a pleasure to play. Would have been amazing to have those little snippits of calls, as well as being even more confusing I'm sure! \r<br\/>Although I think in reality my callers would have been annoyed with how slow I was connecting them. All the whites... then all the reds haha."},{"author_name":"nanimono","author_uid":"111347","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 6:28am","epoch":1472538180,"text":"that escalated quickly. instead of making fun, i'm full of anxiety (that rings...) i'm feel bad for people who did that job back in time.\r<br\/>also the web veriosn hangs my browser periodically."},{"author_name":"pogo","author_uid":"93256","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 2:27pm","epoch":1472566920,"text":"Pretty and well designed.\r<br\/>I felt like it ramped up to a point, but didn't get much more challenging after that.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Still I found it very satisfying, and the tutorial was also very clear and useful."},{"author_name":"Millefey","author_uid":"90056","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 6:43pm","epoch":1472582280,"text":"Looks simple enough but certainly succeeded in conveying the feeling of stress! I too feel sorry for telephone operators in that day.. I would've loved to listen in on calls though! I liked the design (the little hearts indicating happily connected people in particular) and quite enjoyed the challenge. Seems to play smoothly, too.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Thank you for making this game!"},{"author_name":"cakeknuckles","author_uid":"7792","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 8:37pm","epoch":1472675520,"text":"i think you did a really great job!!\r<br\/>it was a unique concept, and I think you executed it really well. the controls were super responsive and polished, and the interface was so cute, with that modern flat ui feel and vintage-y muted colors. i liked the inclusion of a tutorial, it helped introduce the concept of the game, and i enjoyed playing it, even though i was pretty bad. it definitely seems like the kind of game that you could be really good at once you're in &quot;the zone&quot;. v nice. :&gt;"},{"author_name":"tedajax","author_uid":"20950","time":"Sep 3, 2016 @ 11:28pm","epoch":1472944980,"text":"A nice clean simple design that fits the theme well!  Plays really well but I think it would have been nice if the red plug was automatically selected after selecting the white plug.  I get that it would take away a bit from the hectic nature a bit but it would be a bit nicer on my wrist :).  Anyway good job!"},{"author_name":"comatomatoes","author_uid":"39969","time":"Sep 4, 2016 @ 5:39am","epoch":1472967240,"text":"Very cool entry! Clean, consistent visual style. Wonderfully hectic. Things felt a little less stressful when I figured out that incoming calls don't really have a time limit. I never realized I had a secret desire to be a switchboard operator until I played this game. =P"},{"author_name":"Boberro","author_uid":"14299","time":"Sep 4, 2016 @ 1:29pm","epoch":1472995440,"text":"Cool game. Tell me, did you waste much time when trying to get patchcords animated, or were you wiser than me and did not work on a lost case? ;)"},{"author_name":"Sabina Lis","author_uid":"52062","time":"Sep 4, 2016 @ 8:36pm","epoch":1473021060,"text":"Hello Celia!

There was some script problem (in webplayer version) after 18 connections and game stopped for me. Solid game cant suggest anything."},{"author_name":"local minimum","author_uid":"24765","time":"Sep 5, 2016 @ 8:01pm","epoch":1473105360,"text":"I really liked the sound design in this game. I wasn't up to the &quot;fast&quot; challenge but was pleasantly surprised that the people phoning in were quite patient with me. The interaction was quite clear and easy to work with. I would have liked the whole game slower and as with @xesenix, my game crashed due to too much phone action. Maybe the hectic pace would work better on a touch-device.
