Super fun game the art is great, the game plays great. Though the controls are a little tricky. But aside from that great game, great concept, great style.
Fun little game :) My only constructive criticism is that it's a bit tough to drop things on the mic sometimes. Maybe make the item change in appearance a little when it is correctly over the mic
this is a fair point, and you're not the only one to say it. I think it's a matter of the cards needing to be big to describe their content, but then they end up weirdly obscuring the mic itself.
aybe some glowing effect or a more generous hitbox would help.. anyway cheers!
I'm sorry, but I'm really not sure what could be causing that. I've tried it on many devices, browsers and platforms and it's more or less always just worked!
I'm sorry, but I'm really not sure how to troubleshoot this one. Edge works fine on both of my devices. Some googling around tells me that it might be related to using Intel integrated video cards. Might be worth updating your drivers (or better yet: switching to non-integrated GPU if possible) and trying again.
i could potentially be misunderstanding the card, but when I use "banter" and one of my dice matches one of the audience die, my score remains the same and does not get set to 13 like the card says it should
great game by the way! lots of fun very cute and clever :)
I've been trying again this morning and I'm sorry to say I'm having a hard time reproducing this. I do appreciate you letting me know, though, and I'll keep my eye on it!
this game was fun. I can see how it wouldn't be for everyone but I really enjoyed it. I could see myself playing this for a good while on a long night at work.
Music at the Instruction page 8s incredibly annoying.
Also, is the game supposed to end with the "change the channel card" and then after that the screen goes into the colored stripes (don't know how or what they are called)?
A lot of this is magnificent, but I really, really want to throw the dice myself. At the moment, it feels like I'm not the one playing the game. Just a click on them would do wonders.
I just recreated it on my iPhone (Safari). I used "Dark" to force the audience to roll a die, then they busted and their score was revealed. I think my Nielson rating should have gone up by 1, but instead it went up by 4.

whenever i try to launch the game, it's just a white screen. i'm using the itch launcher if that helps
are you using an integrated GPU, by chance?
im not sure, how do i check?
same here!! i am using an integrated GPU :(
I'm 46yo; been playing vidya since pong. This is one of the most original (and hilarious) games I've ever played! Kudos, Dev!
I love this! If they do sue, you have a great premise for a game about an up and coming comedian on a journey to be a late-night talk show host.
In disbelief at how good the voice sfx in this game are. Breath-taking experience overall
I’m not good enough at this game, but I hope there is an ending where the show is cancelled due to Jay Later’s meddling.
This is really creative
this is peak gameplay
I wish I knew who all 20 guests were!

updated with a couple small fixes and rebalanced the EQ of the intro track to make it less ear shattering (though still sufficiently ear shattering)
Hi spelafort! When I launch I get a window open and just a white screen, am I missing a step? excited to play!
I'm sorry, but I'm really not sure what could be causing that. I've tried it on many devices, browsers and platforms and it's more or less always just worked!
This is happening to me too. I'm using Microsoft Edge and it doesn't seem to be working.

typical itch.io comment be like
Also I love Conan O' Brains comedy could you make him funnier if you can?
I love it just wish it was longer
I don't find Conan funny at all. This game simulates his show perfectly. Genius!
this quote will be on the back of the CD-ROM release
Was most a fan of the Bill Maher hate, that guy sucks! Hope Conan sees this on the pod, you should apply for Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend.
This is a really great little game. I wish I had more time to play so that I could see more combinations of topics and follow-ups!

that does sound like a bug. Can I ask the browser/platform?
im running it on chrome!
I've been trying again this morning and I'm sorry to say I'm having a hard time reproducing this. I do appreciate you letting me know, though, and I'll keep my eye on it!
Very strange game, not bad tho
Ha!
White house pets, hilarious, time to make it dark.... Instant 14, time for Bill Maher.
i emailed this to the podcast. i hope they have him play it!
he's not returning my calls -_-

was unplayable. slow and laggy, unsure what happened
Music at the Instruction page 8s incredibly annoying.
Also, is the game supposed to end with the "change the channel card" and then after that the screen goes into the colored stripes (don't know how or what they are called)?
Awesom!!
A lot of this is magnificent, but I really, really want to throw the dice myself. At the moment, it feels like I'm not the one playing the game. Just a click on them would do wonders.
I'd considered this, but worried it would've felt too fussy with the extra click (and the extra 'type' of interaction as well)
I do understand where you're coming from, though!
Fun and clever!
God I hope Bley see this and shows it to him. Too fun!
pretty cool
Damn, I love this game. Reminds me of this Swedish-German fella.
Cool! Will watch live audience tv different from now on..
I broke it (3x) by getting a bust on Wordplay.
Also, when the audience busts, my Nielsen rating seems to go up by inconsistent amounts.
what platform/browser? Having a hard time recreating this..
I just recreated it on my iPhone (Safari). I used "Dark" to force the audience to roll a die, then they busted and their score was revealed. I think my Nielson rating should have gone up by 1, but instead it went up by 4.
EDIT- I think I misunderstood what was happening here. See my post below.
OK I've spotted the issue in my code. I'll upload the new version ASAP. Appreciate the bug report :)
very very good.
i'm pretty sure this is exactly how conan lives his life.
This was a lot of fun! I shared it with some friends.
really neat game, pixel art is gorgeous, some of my favorite i have ever seen
good , sound on the start and when he speaks annoy me deeply
Great style! Really love idea of the card controlled celebrities, I mean they play with, ye philosophically. THX!
Surrealistic style of hidden covers, when you open this box you meet absurd of this reality....
Funny little game. I hope that more people find and play it.
