Awards & Reviews

AGS Panel Rating

Short, yet entertaining jam entry. Humorous and well-written, especially the parts including the portable AI. Graphics and sound are readymades, but well used. Difficulty: easy.

Fun and cool little game!

Really fun short game with lots of humour.

Some nice puzzles but overall lacking polish. The visuals are made using an asset pack. The conversations with Karl are funny.

Funny short game. I liked the banter between the alien and his AI companion.
