Thanks For Listening

Thanks for Listening is a game that doesn't look to provide a challenge or attempt to reinvent any game genre. In my opinion this game doesn't need to because, while it is short, it is a fun little experience. The entire game was made to convey a series of short stories in the style of a Ham Radio where you tune to different stations. The visuals are in pixel format, but the detail put into the setting itself is pleasing to look at and there are little details placed here and there that makes the background a fitting addition to the game. The short stories are from 4 individuals who are fully voice acted in English and each have a different type of tone they set for the station you tune to. One radio station is unique in the fact that it is a dungeon mini game where you can use an interactive keypad to try and escape a dungeon. While a simple plot, the developer planned out each ending scenario which gives a unique feel to every run (even the endings when you die have individual commentary!). It isn't a perfect game and does run into some issues with the UI, but they are few and far in between. For the first game released by this developer, it is very good. Overall, I would recommend this game to you if you just want to sit back and enjoy some good old fashioned radio station dialogue.
