First in… Line?
A downloadable game
"It's opening night, and our lead star dropped out! Can you memorize these lines REALLY quickly?"
This play is running super behind schedule, and to make it even worse, the lead had to bail! You're the back-up actor, so you've gotta step in and perform in his place. Problem is, You Forgot Something... YOUR LINES!! No time to rehearse, just memorize them as well as you can and get out there! The show must go on!
In this endless game featuring multiple modes, pass and "play" between 2 people, and more, take to the stage and try not to anger the crowd too much as you fill in for the lead role, only finding out the lines as you go! Compete for a high score, and break a leg while you shoot for the prestige spot in back-up actor stardom!

Um, is this some kind of error? (Everywhere where it should be possible to buy the game, it says “the game is currently unavailable.”) This applies to all paid games, as I have noticed.
sorry, i'm not currently selling this game on itch right now (this page is to host the initial jam version). you can purchase it from playdate catalog using the link at the top of the page — if DRM is a concern, use the Game Support link over there and write in
OK, I understand. I just thought it was some kind of mistake and wanted to let you know.
The other comment was right : this is fun !
Personnally I would enjoy a bit less slow times (the 2 sec between seeing the commands and the moment to do it). A bit more arcade. But once again, it's totally a personnal taste.
if i get the opportunity to push one last update before the jam ends, i'll see if i can't punch up the speed to make things move along faster over time. thanks for the feedback!
thank for read comments too :)
The game is super fun!! Thank you!! 💙
new patch hopefully coming in tomorrow with more! <3
edit: just posted v1.1.0!
