I don't know how to cancel a conversation without saying a bad line and getting the police called on me. I also kind of wish I could skip the arrest cutscene.
Saying a so-so line will remove the top option, not the option that didn't work (after protag saying "I guess she didn't like that one"). It was weird that I had to use the successful option 3 times in a row to gain the last girl's number.
I wanted to come up with some cringy pickup line myself, but I'm not as good as the woodlands-gang :sob: I guess I'd have to get some lessons from The Rizzlord to get better at it.
On a more serious note, the game has a very interesting concept, extremely cute art-style and superb voice over and music :blush: I especially love all the reactions girls make when you fail with your pickup lines again and again :sweat_smile:
I've encountered a bug, that allows you to use the same pickup line when a game gets harder and requires you to come up with multiple pickup lines. Also some of the lines that worked did not make much sense to me (especially the one with the pencil), but that's probably ESL problems.
Nonetheless, great entry! :slight_smile:
@annie-owl yeah same as above haha I will have to patch that tomorrow, just in bed atm. thanks for letting me know
Every single line got a chuckle out of me, and I love the "twist" ending. But let's be real, there's no other way it could have ended.
Here's my recording, though the game audio is a bit quiet, my bad!

The game was fun! I played with my girl and she cringed a lot so you know you did a great job with the lines! :D
A minor quality of life improvement would be to be able to see the 2nd part of your line without picking the 1st part (even though there is a back button already).
Amazing voice acting and art
But yeah, the gameplay was good, and the ending was funny. There really should be a web build for LD, though.
Congrats on the entry!
The voice acting was better than I ever could have hoped for. Thanks for letting me goof it up! :smile:
Some of the totally random rizz and the characters’ sigma faces made me laugh so hard.
It’s honestly super impressive!
