Satanic Boegjaevlar! by Yapikom

[raw]
made by Yapikom for LD24 (JAM)
I will update this text when less sleepy
-

You are the village priest strugling against cultural evolution.

Controls:
Space to talk/Open chests/Enter doors (the red things)
Enter to enter inventory and select item (you have to deselect and select item to equip it, it's a bug I know)
Z to use item.


May contain traces of profanties, nudity, obscenity and blahblahblah.

Oh, almost forgot: Wait for the time to reach zero to see the ending.

And yes: It's satire.

Man, this game is full of hate. Do you need to talk to someone, dude? It is okay if you are gay.

Hi. I'm not sure if you are joking.

But you are aware that this is a game that shows middle age-values and then evolves them to more modern ones?

Or do you mean my anti religion-message? Well then. No I don't need to talk to someone, I stand firmly by them, but I'm open to debate.

And you are right. It IS okay to be gay, thank you for pointing it out Captain Obvious :). Sadly, most of the world don't agree :/.

Uh, this was weird. Not really sure what the point was, and not enough time to figure it out. If it's a critique of religion, it didn't really come across that way - just kind of confusing and sort of offensive, and I'm not even religious. Worked well, simple intuitive controls, and graphics were fine (8bit style).

Hi. No I didn't really have time to include any real critique against religion, I wouldn't even call it as offensive as I would've liked since I'm not attacking faith.

But the point was (or was going to be) the inevitably of cultural evolution. It doesn't matter how hard you fight it, you may only delay it, not stop it. In this case gay marriage. But the item and dialogue-system took so long time to implement that I couldn't do the stop the gay-marriage part.

And yes. The time may have been short. But I didn't have any playtesters to balance it out. The game was going to be about consequences and I didn't have so much content done. So I had to make the time limit short so the player wouldn't lose interest too quick.

Really, really borderline unacceptable given the language...

Haha. So many things to complain at and you chose the language? :D

I rechecked the dialogue-file. And there's srsly less profanties than on a schoolground. 5% of the possible dialogue contains profanities and half of that is just more or less lines used by a rather well known church.

But well, I guess you are prude about language and that's okay, that's why I put a warning text in the description. Or are you the type of guy/gal who buys a porno and then complain about it containing nudity?

Besides. You shouldn't care about profanities, it's a beautiful way to express feelings. A sentence containing "bad words" is just as hateful as a sentence with the same meaning but no "bad words". There's however a big chance of it being less elegant and making the user look less intelligent.

Cheers and hugs bro. <3
