the fact that real bomb defusal is both easier and harder than this saddens me...
Reviews for "This Date Blows!"
Wow, you really REALLY need headphones for this, I tried without and I had no idea which wires to cut next.

If you look at your phone, you hear the date less, which means you can hear the other voice better, hope this helps
Hilarious game- getting blown up over and over and having to listen through each person's dialogue made each replay more interesting than the last. However, something that was peeving me the whole time was that neither person's voice was very clear at all. It's okay to have one character mumbling when you're paying attention to the other, so long as the one you are actively trying to listen to is speaking clearly, which neither were. Even our own character was hard to hear at times. Maybe try adding subtitles? Regarding the graphics, the intro art is a bit off-putting since it doesn't mesh with the rest of the style, otherwise I thought everything was fitting. Same goes for the music, sound effects, and medals. Overall, you did a good job, especially for a game made in just 3 days.
Unrelated note, I love how the date looks like if Natsuki from DDLC started taking steroids.

Just added subtitles, thanks for the input!
It's an interesting concept, but my audio processing issues do not like this game. I cannot understand like half of the dialouge, and I'm pretty sure I needed the instructions on working that bomb. Technically it's an autistic thing- I've had trouble understanding actual movies and TV shows. It's unusually bad for this game tho. Maybe if it had subtitles it would be better?
crow-seeds responds:
Planning on adding subtitles in an update, thanks for the input!!!
he's talking late for me so I don't know what to do in time.
but other than that the game is fun.
crow-seeds responds:
Just pushed an update that should fix the sync issues (it essentially stops the game until the audio loads).
