You've captured the feel of the Jazz Age just pitch-perfectly with both the character art and the UI look-and-feel. I already like Gilda a lot! Works great as a promo for your larger game, although the ending does feel pretty abrupt if taken as a stand-alone.
Thank you for stopping by & giving this little game a try! Happy to hear any feedback—especially that we’ve nailed the Jazz Age feel 💖✨
Simple indeed, and still manages to hit all the right notes! I loved getting to see James' perspective on things, and gained a greater appreciation for Gilda through his eyes as well as their current dynamic in Let's Misbehave. Well done!!
Aw, thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a comment! I’m so glad that this has served it’s purpose and provided more insight into the world we’ve carefully been trying to create ✨
