Love the concept, changing the music to help the party is pretty funny. I was a little confused at the difference between shots and beer. And I also thought that the hydration level would be something that water increased, not the happiness level. Simple gameplay, I think the night lasts too long. But overall fun concept\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"causalpigeon","author_uid":"1195243","time":"2020-04-21T03:21:46Z","epoch":1587439306,"modified":1587439306,"text":"Really fun game I love art and the game play is really fun.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"kristinamay","author_uid":"1127442","time":"2020-04-21T03:21:57Z","epoch":1587439317,"modified":1587439317,"text":"Hey, this game looks awesome - very polished - but I can't figure out how to interact with it?

Very nice work on the graphics, and the controls feel nice. It seemed a bit too easy; I didn't have any problem finishing once I figured out the mechanics. I would recommending changing the game window size on your itch.io settings page to fit the entire game without going into full screen mode.
