All of the dialogue in this game was great and humerus. The art was fantastic and the game felt very polished! I am sorry I failed to capture footage of it during the stream!

Great game, great intro! The graphics, music and sounds and most importantly the dialogues are also pretty good. I could win the first part but failed the second part. Overall, great work, keep it up!

The buttons are not fixed with my current resolution so I have problems clicking the buttons.

@doppelgunner Screenshots? What is your screen resolution? Regardless you can use keyboard controls.

A really fun experience. I was laughing my butt off on some of those statements. Great entry!

Wow, after that intro I was not expecting that. I have to say I am happy with my closing statement accusing the guy of being a dark soul and then finishing with I am a fucking planet.

This was really cool. A smacked the first guy down hard. I thought for sure I had the second guy, Calling him a jealous Pluto, but nay, I got blowed up.

My biggest issue is that it was hard to pick the argument I wanted because It was hard to tell which set of options I was on. Some way to see all the counter arguments at once would be great.

Great idea and great game. The humour in this game is a bit weird, but also pretty good. Well done.

lol, dat Ace Attorney mechanics applied to such silly(in good way) theme! Very fresh and original, and good execution too. Thank you for good laugh.

Nice interpretation of the theme. I got a little confused in the beginning, but overall I really enjoyed the game and thought it was very funny (with some nice references). I'm amazed at the amount of dialogue and choices available. Great job!

Sorry for taking so long with this review - but I loved this game! Funniest game I've ever played in a Ludum Dare, hands down. Really reminded me of Douglas Adams, which is good because he's one of my favourite authors. Not much to say - just perfectly done I think.

I really liked this game, graphics, interesting story and gameplay. I love games in which the player's choice can change the end of the game.

I had a lot of fun playing this; quirky, humorous, and intriguing! I HAD to play a few times to see all the endings I could get! + + + + + + + +

All characters are drawn in a different style, was that on purpose?

Texts are very well written and I like all the space splash screens.

And this one was a bit unexpected :smile:

We put that in just to troll our friend Tomas lol. His reaction was so worth it.

Wow, for starters, the intro is great, then it really surprised me to see what the game was about!

The texts are very clever and I feel like there are really a lot of possibilities, I haven't been able to beat the second scientist yet, but I'll keep on trying! I also love the way that the audience reacts if you made a good or bad choice.

All in all it's an excelent game. Music, art and gameplay come together very well. Only thing I would add is a bit more indication of what the planet is going to say when chosing the options (Maybe not put all the answer, but just an indication).

Congratulations!! Keep up the good work! :)
