Tips and tricks

You may need to lose in order to do better on your next try. You can also interact with characters and items when you have lost! If you want to delete your high score, put the floppy disk in the trash can by the entrance.

good job! Was hard to find the objects at first and the keys didn't feel natural for hand placement!(That could just be me though!) But cute art!

It would have been a 5/5 but it's kind of irritating that you cant interact with things when people are talking... at least the timer should stop and wait for people to finish. You probably have considered this while setting up the time limits, but it still feels irritating to me.

Having more time for the first few items, and having them further away would have helped me learn the level without failing 5 times. Still an enjoyable game. Thanks!

Great graphics, kind of irritating audio track. It is very problematic that you cant interact with things when doctor is talking AND time is running out simultaneously. If this wasn't an issue i'd probably enjoy your game.

I enjoyed it, nice sound track, and i liked the speach bubbles how they came in a letter at a time. Issue is that if someone is talking you cant interact so waste time quickly. Very good idea though.

@maryush28 Thanks for the feedback! We have decided to fix the timer issue so that it does not start counting until the dialog is over.

Really enjoyable! Watching the timer tick down put the pressure on. The song got a little repetitive, but that's fairly unavoidable with LD! Awesome job.

It was a fun game, I liked the graphics. It was a bit annoying that you couldn't interact with stuff while someone was talking, and there is no way to skip dialog.

I really liked it. It's like memory game on steroids :-)
It would really benefit, if you could skip dialog elements with the e button. Great game!
I would really appreciate it, if you could look at our game too and leave some ratings. Thanks!

Oh, well, that was fun and a bit nervous. I didn't finish the game, but I started three times in a row and it was still fun. Great art and good sounds, really enjoyed the direct use of the theme.

Graphics and Audio were on Point. I think the game would benefit from an indicator of where to find the stuff the player is looking for.
