Part-Time Deity
My entry for the GDevelop Big Jam #7.
In this game, you play as an assistant to a God, and you must answer people's prayers to make their life better. Be careful though, as some of the options might be deceiving!

A simple yet well developed game! The premise holds itself up, being interesting all the time and the dialogue is hilarious.
The music is slightly repetitive and maybe the lead synth is a bit too loud.
The character design was pretty cool as well. The pixel art makes them feel less 'present' which works with the premise since they are only praying and the fact that we're an assistant instead of god itself gives it stakes I haven't really seen before.
I'd wish the game had some kind of ending instead of just stopping with a score, but I like how it shows you which ones you did right. (That's how I learned I'm bad at reading people or at least knowing the scope of the wishes lol).
Thank you so much for playing!❤️
I tried to give the game an eerie atmosphere that makes us seem powerful, but not fully in control, if that makes sense. I think it worked out well!
The characters are awesome! Big shout out to chierit for the character assets.
I totally agree with you on the music, it should be less repetitive. I didn't have much time, that's why I couldn't extend it.
The ending could also be extended and multiple endings could be added depending on how many people you were able to help, the sky is the limit!
