Wow. Great job, the level of polish is impressive. I had a lot of fun just trying to figure out the controllers. On the trackpad it was a bit difficult but very very fun. One of the best entries I have tried so far.

Amazing mood and humor!

The waiter really cracked me up. I loved when he brought silly things like salt and pepper shaker!

Goofy controls that are fun to play around with. Similar to Hand Simulator but in a different style and environment. Good job!

Wow! This is the most hilarious game of this Ludum Dare so far!

The graphics are very interesting!

Well done!!

Very funny concept, I really enjoyed playing it! I think with a little bit of a tutorial I would have understand it without having to do a run-through of just trying things out. Maybe I missed a tutorial screen though- my bad if that's the case! Definitely a memorable game and sticks REALLY well to the theme!
Quite Good

Pretty gosh darn funny game and execution. I like the idea and I'm not sure how u did the ai but it seems pretty responsive. Reminds me of that episode of always sunny

This game was a hilarious concept. I loved the graphics and voices so much. I wasn't sure if I was doing the right actions some of the time/how my game was progressing. But I did have fun messing around at the table :laughing:

Very nicely put together :D Loved how you integrated the game menu into the game.

Great graphics. Soft, transparent shadows in the environment (baked?), the GI colors look great, lovely lighting.

My record:

Oh this is hilarious. It's a small detail, but I love how in the title screen, for "how to play" it changes the name of your date based on the previous screen. Nice! The dialogue was fun, and I love how she worked at McBurger Queen. Ah, what humor. And she has the audacity to break up with *me*?! The 3D models are fantastic, and I seriously adore the Banjo-Kazooie-esque voices when the characters speak. Great work all around!

Loved the look, humor, and the very original idea. I do wish that the dialogue didn't repeat so much, but still liked the project overall. Well done!

I loved the setting and the creative use of the theme. Such polish and the end screen with the looping is top tier!

Wow, that was amazing! The gameplay was neat, although at first it's kind of hard to know what to do to delay the breakup, and sometimes I saved myself, but I didn't know how. It was fun nonetheless, thanks to the options, movements, and dialogues. I **loved** the art style and graphics, really, it was incredible, though sometimes the text glitched a bit, overlapping itself. Overall, amazing entry, so congratulations!

A delightfully different and goofy entry that really made me rethink my approach to menu design :P This unironically has potential as a full release meme game similar to Untitled Goose Game or various simulators. Stellar job on achieving all this in the limited time frame as well!

controls were a bit wonky in my opinion but overall it was fun to play still (:

A fun premise with hilarious presentation. Everything from the (literal) menus to the control schemes was fun to explore. A well-made, chaotic, and thoroughly entertaining submission that doesn't outstay its welcome.
