Hey!
There are 10 people in this game. You have 10 seconds to change their mood, simply by talking with them! Make them all happy, or make them all sad, it's all part of the game!
Try to get all of the achievements!
All music and graphics were made during the compo. :)
I'm sure there are bugs and stuff still. I didn't spend a ton of time scouring for them, but hopefully I got most of them out.
I also had a great time livestreaming on http://twitch.tv/zanzlanz! Was great talking with my followers ;D
Hope you enjoy the game!! I'd love to hear your comments below, and I'll respond them as well! :D

Thanks BrunoDev! Adding 10 characters was hard enough, I don't think I could make a single more right now! xD
Maybe in the future though. Thanks again!
Awesome work! You've thought of a really cool concept and made it work well! Looking forward to any future extras :)
Phew. That was great! After a few playthroughs, I got to 8 very happy and 2 happy. Great concept, nice work! Constructive criticism: It's a bit hard to have time to read what they're saying fast enough, and it would be nice to be able to mouse over people at the end to see there happy score.
This game is really fun and addicting, it's like FLIPTRIS, just it's more easy xD
Boodog: Thanks Boodog! I'm happy you were able to join me in LD this time, it was a blast!
Terrabyte: Thank you very much! I think this would be an interesting thing to expand upon, maybe even make a mobile app for it.
Puzzlem00n: Hey, thanks for comin' by! Yeah, the 10 seconds theme was really tough (I hate timed games to begin with). I decided to make a game that didn't really have a consequence for making a mistake, haha! If I were to continue the game, I'd change the timing to 20+ seconds or something. Your recommendation about the score on each person is nice. Their smiles give it away, but an extra verification would definitely be great.
TehPencilmaster: Haha, thanks dude! I'm glad it's not very difficult! And nice game, yourself! I was very happy you decided to join with me :D
Entity2D: Thanks for commenting, and also for joining the stream! I'm glad you made it for the Jam, haha good job! :D
pbdiode: Thank you XD
I meant to get to the comments yesterday, but I wasn't able to, haha. I hope everyone is having a fun time playing and voting!
Hmmm, seems lie a nice enough idea, it's just a bit difficult to choose the correct lie to tell the people to make them happy... not sure what that teaches us, learn to lie faster ?!? :) Anyway, the game was cool, got a lot of good content in 48 hours!
Hello Martin_Monosys!
Haha, the 'lying' portion of the game was unintended, but it is something I tried to factor out. Unfortunately I wasn't sure how to do it, so I just stuck with it. Another lesson you could think about is 'the truth hurts'. Good point nonetheless! :)
Thanks!
I enjoyed it. I don't think the time limit made the game "better" than it would have been without it though.
Roan Contreras: Thanks for commenting/rating! It was a fun weekend, but very tiring.
BNeutral: I totally agree. Didn't know exactly how to get around it. 10 seconds is a bit too short and I would have gone with 15 seconds, 20 second, or not time limit at all if this was a serious game. Thanks!
Okay, very nice. You made me smile. The text goes by a little too fast maybe though. It was a bit hard to make a decision like that.
Awesome game. You did a great work here. Maybe you can make more levels and try to sell it. I think people will pay for it. :)
xhunterko: Thanks! I understand how fast it goes, and it definitely was something I wanted to rethink... but... 10 seconds! Haha, after playing a few times, you start to get in the swing of the conversations. In a remake, I'd love to change the time limit, as I mentioned in my previous comment. :)
Capro, I'd love to concider making it a bigger game! I've never put a price tag on my games yet, but if I could make this for the mobile/iOS platform, I'd wager some people might support the game. Thank you ;D

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Great work as always Zanzlanz! I just wish this game could have a continuation or something, its just great!
