Depending on what you choose to show, the family members might be delighted, scared or just bored.
It's up to you!

@SirRicecake: I'm sorry for that! Did it spit out any additional information?
I liked it! The idea is really original. I liked to scare the people.
Unfortunately i was unable to start the game. The description looks awesome, so I was a bit disapointed, that the game didn't start for me :(
I'm running Windown 7 Professional 64bit
Hope the error message is of value: http://i.imgur.com/zb7ZqTn.png
@StMatn: thanks for the picture! I believe that is a problem that depends on your graphics card. Some cards do not support textures that have either width or height not being a power of 2.
I'l look into fixing this.
@StMatn: The issue should be fixed now. You could try again :)
It fits the theme pretty well and has a nice graphic style. Good job!
Thank you very much for contacting me back :)
The game said my OpelGL implementation wasn't supported. Since you said, it could be an issue with the graphics card, I tried to force th use of my nVidia card (internal intel processor was standard) and it finally started :)
The game is really cool! I wasn't disapointed at all. The graphics look really nice. The screen image for porn is nice :P The sounds are really fitting at all.
If I had to criticise a thing, I would say, that the game gets a little repetitive after some time. Maybe a fixed amount of rounds or a harder loosing condition would fix that.
All in all it's a really great game!
Nice work!
P.S.:
My scores were 429 on scare and 323 delighted :)
Liked to idea, although I was disappointed that I didn't see a gnome. With some polish this could definitely be a good game.
Really original ! It's a shame it doesnt have some win condition.
But other then that, good mood, nice graphics, not much sounds but just enought ! Good job !
I'd like the concept and the style! I laughed when I showed tits and after realized it was dad and his daughter and she was scared
I like this game, nice idea. I like how I've got to sort of guess who's gonna be watching the next thing on TV. Very cool. =)
Yeah, I like it. =)
There is a good concept here, but holy crap this game lasts forever. It takes a lonnnng time to get to 150 of a category you're not trying for. Super good art. Needs music, some animations for the TV screen, and needs to be rid of that annoying countdown effect. Do that, and you've got a great game ready for a website like Kongregate.
Nice to see fellow Löve-developers making another interesting and well made game! Good job!
Wow, this game is very similar to our entry, you should check it out.
I liked the weird vibe of this one, the sort of surreal art. It got me to chuckle a couple of times.
Thanks.
Naturally we'd agree it's a great interpretation of theme :) I think you took the gameplay a step or two further than we managed though, and it's more fun as a result. I grasped the symbols really quickly, though some objects were initially hard to identify.
Still not working :(

Not only did I really enjoy this game, I think it'd be really fun to make a real Banana TV that consists of 1-5 minute shorts and you'd be able to watch their reactions. Really hoping this places!
Very original concept. Although at times it felt a bit "too random" because you don't know who's watching your TV rather if its lil kids or males or females etc, or even if you were at all times inside the same house(If you were that's a big family) and I figured maybe if you add mood bar simular to a HP bar that changed over time, and maybe like them requesting some kind of show like the sims do? Anyways I had fun:) it was enjoyable
Almost there, great concept but the execution was a bit lacking xD
Neat concept. Pretty unique. I enjoyed figuring out what to play depending on the clues, nice job!
Refreshingly different ideas here. Liked it a lot. I sucked at scaring people but delighting people turned out to be my thing. Good going.
Pretty darn innovative. The game would catch me in a loop, getting different people than I expected (programmer's art!) and having reactions that caught me off-guard. May have been nice to either limit your program choices, and/or limit the time they have to select a program.
Took some time to work out how to maximise my score effectively but great concept and nice interpretation of the theme.
Overall the game has a nice idea. However it takes really long, so I really only tried out one mood. It could also be fun if you had different goals for different people in the house hold. For example you try to haunt the mother, but please her children...
Interesting idea and creative approach.... and a scary style :D
I love the reactions. Especially how horrified the baby is of pornography.
Pretty funny and really original! I was a bit confused at first because I didn't read your instructions here but it wasn't actually too difficult to figure out just based off the graphics.
Gotta show the sexy and scary stuff to the baby!!

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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
Unfortunately couldn't start this on my Mac (10.9.5). It said : "You can't open the application 'BananaTV.app' because it may be damaged or incomplete." I tried to download and run it twice.
