acquiescence
acquiescence is a brief game. no playthrough will last longer than 2 minutes, and a speed run can be finished in about 20 seconds.
it's a game about the choices we make, and the choices that are made for us
controls:
arrows: make a choice
space: move quickly
ultimately, there is only one ending
functionally, there are two endings
effectively, there are five endings
but in reality, the ending doesn't really matter

That's sad and beautiful in more ways than one. Well done evoking emotion from a great text!

Very nice. Love the time pressure and the variety of combinations from a simple set of choices. Good job!

Very cool once you figure out what's going on. Love the squarish out work. It's actually a bit tricky to get the outcomes you want, and addictive enough to drive you to check out all the endings. Fantastic!

Great game! Got all 5 effective endings. It's sort of sad how all of the possible party members refuse to work together. I think yellow and blue could make a nice team.

This is my favorite game in the competition - the mechanic strikes a clever balance and the looks are appealing. Nice job!

AWESOME! I love the mechanic, love the way you have to think fast, and love the art. Pretty damn great overall. I would love to play a longer game using this mechanic - imagine a huge quest and big story filled with quick-thinking decisions and an epic storyline... this game is very inspired. Well done!







Expecting to see some more.
