Huh, what a creative game. The idea is so nice, playing a part in a TV show.. thing.. and then switching to different channels. It's super creative and fun! I wish you would've had more time to develop this further, for example the two channels which currently just have their logo. But what you've got is already very fun and humorous! I loved the moment when I realized you could actually talk to one guy in the audience on the first show. Super fun.

I love it!
The sound and music work is fantastic and suits the surreal feeling of the experience perfectly.

My scope should have been smaller, originally the idea was to have 6 rooms and end up going from channel to channel to pick up items / resolve things and end up back at the TV show to finish the interview.
Glad you guys liked it!

Great game! I found myself laughing a bit here and there. Definitely a great taste on the theme.

God! So much random stuff, I couldn't stop laughing. I loved the sounds and music, as well as the rick and morty reference. Got stuck after giving the plumbus to the guys in the Island. Thank you for the laughs, good job.

Very creative, so much actually that it reduced my immersion to the game: from one universe to another very quickly, it's hard to keep track.
Still, very funny and creative game, highly appreciated.
_Lo lolol loloooo..!!_

I liked the idea of the different TV channels. Took me a while to work out thats how you proceed. Maybe one of the guys in the audience could have suggested that they wanted to go backstage and watch something else.
Impressive audio (Although to nitpick the last note of the first song is too loud and harsh).
Really good job.
