Prikkel

Global Game Jam 2025 Entry

It's so easy to get stuck in your own head. Your problems seem insurmountable to yourself.
Sometimes it's really nice to get an outside perspective. An observer who can see the problems you're stuck with and help you find one of many solutions to it. Stimulate them, help them, prikkel them.

The objects on the frame are simple, everyday, even mundane things. Though, sometimes the solutions to seemingly impossible situations is quite simple. All you need is the right prikkel.

Game is only played with the mouse, just left click to pop thought bubbles to see what somebody is thinking - or just offer a few possible solutions without checking. Up to you! Of course, choosing to help somebody is a bit of a responsibility- so keep an eye on them or they might get lost in the crowds again.

This game can't be won or lost, but you can solve all problems. If you miss one, don't worry there's so many unique people in the world but seems like they do worry about the same stuff, so you'll get another shot at it quickly. Drag the item you think could solve their problem unto the person having it and if it doesn't fly back - it's an accepted solution.
