Loved the music and style. The game reminds me of old flash games that just wanted to trick the player. More branches and endings would be nice.

Cool game idea and flawless execution.

Interesting game Lol.

For such a weird concept, it was executed really well! My only complaint is that there's no full-screen mode.

Strange, but really fun! My spacebar was crying after I finished playing

Would've been cool to see some idle clicker-like elements added to this to make it feel more game-like. I think the music is quite effective and the intro was very cheeky which I appreciated, but I do think there's something missing.

Would love to play it, but the Mac build is damaged for some reason. :(

And I can’t find the source code on the itch.io, figured that I would compile it myself instead. Can we get in touch somehow? Eventually, I will be on Windows on weekend, so I can rate it by then. :)

@dzejpi awww, that's a known problem exporting to OSX from a non-OSX platform :( there's something you can disable to fix it... gatekeeper? seems insecure anyway. DM me on discord and i can send you the godot project and that will probably work fine. PileOfAmoebas#1458

Got the project and was able to build it myself, thank you very much! As mentioned above - wonderfully bizzare. I absolutely loved the music - it was excellent! And it worked great with the awesome graphics and text effects. Great job, love these sorts of games!

I really like meta-games! Good job with this one, it was fun.

I won! I think... or maybe I will wait, a bit longer, just in case :P

Of course, my English is very bad, thanks to the translator, but the game is cool. Amused by the reference to the meme "are ya winning, son?"Heh)
