Golbertz Party Sing-A-Long

You're invited to the the Annual Bobble-Head party and are at the beck and call of all the guests. Choose between your Angelic and Devilish sides to please the guests.

Controls:
Use the mouse to click through till you get to the guests requests. Then your Angelic and Devilish sides will appear and you have to try and click the Angel to proceed. It's randomized so be careful when you click or you won't know what's going to happen. There are quite a few different outcomes depending on whether you click the Angel or Devil.

Wanted to keep the responses a bit ambiguous so the player could fill in the gaps but think I probably kept them a bit to ambiguous.

Very short game but hopefully it means people can get the full experience.

Used:
Flash
Photoshop
Audacity

The audio added nicely to the overall atmosphere which felt pretty creepy. The way the characters were drawn and their animations also added to the atmosphere. Quite enjoyable, but a bit short. Good work none the less.

Thanks everyone who's played so far. I seem to end up always creating weird worlds with weird characters. Next time I'm doing something more straight forward.

Kinda cool, great graphics and everything was so funny. Especially the sound.

"Bobblehead. .. "

I clicked demon, "Whats this?" I though.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

Fantastic graphics, surreal audio, extremely creative! Too short, but I can't be too sad, that's the way of it for compo games. Well done!

Cheers peeps. Glad to see people are enjoying it so far. Hard to tell when you're working on it and haven't slept how it'll actually turn out.

Also will make sure I get to everyone's games who's commented, just need to find sometime between work this week for it.

This is certainly different, i enjoy the surreal art and sounds, though it gets a little obnoxious when the sounds play over each other.

This game just felt like nonsense to me. While I like surreal stuff, surrealism is when what is depicted defies our expectations of reality or logic; none of the things in this game defy my expectations in an interesting way, they're just sorta random. The same can be said about the audio; though it doesn't fit conventional standards of music, it's not strange in an unsettling way, just random and incomprehensible (with the exception of some elements, most notably the vague voices/whispers, which were genuinely unsettling).

The gameplay has no challenge and due to the random yet uninteresting nature of the events it also doesn't feel rewarding in an exploratory way.

I didn't really see the link with the theme here; all of the characters are monsters but it's not even confirmed that the protagonist is a monster, let alone that the protagonist's being a monster would affect anything. The text 'you are a monster' pops up at every bad end, but I have no idea why. Maybe I just don't 'get it'.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh creepy!

I love the artwork
McFood25 Aug 2015, 08:42
Veeeery creepy. Very well drawn.
I think the ambiguous responses make enough sense. I attributed the wrong doing to myself, so I think it works.

I know the feeling of not getting all the content you want in. Better luck next time, but the mood was well worth it!

Very awkward game. I liked the feels of it but to be honest it's too short and mechanic is not that interesting.

The scenario and character designs are cute.

The game's progression is not ideal; it's a bit boring to replay 4 times to see the different endings. It's not a huge problem because the game is short... but maybe you can find a more clever structure.

The audio is weird, which is good, but your voice-work could use practice.
Also the WOOT WOOT part is very loud relative to the other sounds.

tripleVisionGames27 Aug 2015, 20:43
Yes.

Bizarre and excellent. Everything just is so very, VERY unsettling in an extremely subtle way.

Think this has to be my favourite entry so far. I will be having strange dreams tonight...
Saf28 Aug 2015, 18:00
Okay I cannot explain what happened on the last 15 minutes on my computer screen :P Definitely a refreshing game.. I don't know what you were smoking but it worked good!
bvanschooten29 Aug 2015, 08:00
Creepy. I like the art style. Except the clipping in the sound samples :-)
Dizzyman57229 Aug 2015, 16:18
Weirdest game ever...Of all time. Seriously, I think this game deserves a reward for being so weird. But cool, I gave you all 5 stars. 5/5

Took me a while to figure out that you were supposed to click on the loading screen but after that it was a really funny little game. Credits for the cool audio.

Impressive! That's one of the best games I've played this LDJAM so far. It wasn't entirely clear to me from the start if being good would be the right thing to be to get the party going or not. But that was totally OK as I wanted to explore all outcomes anyhow. The art was just perfect and well the only thing is it could have been much longer and have a more in-game ending. It could be nice to have it so that some things should be dismissed (being evil). It could also be very nice if at some points one could choose either and the game would go down different paths for a while. But I get that the explosion of possibilities and the load of work. However I really hope you continue working on stuff like this.

Odd. But loved the art :D
