This was a very clever way of presenting interactive fiction. People love humorous product reviews, and you really tapped into that for some of these. I had a really fun time with this. Thanks for making and sharing it. 😊
Thank you for playing! I very much enjoyed watching the video. I might make a tweak to that three star rating.
Understandably so. But to be clear, the cigarette ratings in my videos are very different from how I rate games on pages such as these. I can assure you that I rated it much more highly here than in the video. 😅 Apologies if my character was a bit too harsh.
Oh no, I didn't mean your in-character cigarette rating. Early in the video you mentioned one of the three-star reviews in the game being too low.
I did see your actual five-star rating on the game and I appreciate it very much.
"According to an an alarming new report..."
Also surprised that the guy who started fires all over town didn't have their own breaking news pop-up.
Thanks for spotting the typo!
You will be happy to know that the arsonist news report will be available in the paid DLC
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Friends!
As I passed the display some weeks ago, our eyes met & we smiled, knowing we’ve just found our new best friend. I even knitted my little chainsaw the cutest fuzzy sweater for those quiet brisk nights when we walk downtown!
We find small crowds there to perform for and when the music begins, it’s the grandest ballet as I spin and lead my partner firmly through the air, to-and-fro, again and again, before cheer echoes briefly in the streets.
Then, when the final note fades into moonlight and we’ve taken our bows, we can see from the glistening, unblinking eyes that we’ve touched their hearts in a special “forever” way. And, our own feel a warmth in being shared with them, too.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Touching! 😍
Can I commission a fuzzy chainsaw sweater?
i’ll send one right away. please note that we recommend thorough handwashing of our sweaters soon after each performance!
