Player Comments on Friday Night

It felt like one of those super cheesy, cliche sitcoms centered around nothing but edgy teenagers.

But I did enjoy it, and I found there to be more then a few links on each page and quite a lot of detail and writing, and that made my rating rise quite a bit.

There is more character development then I normally see in storygames, which was really refreshing. I was glad to find characters who I can actually feel emotion and sympathy for.

I found there to be not a lot of branching, but definitely some. There were multiple endings, and I enjoyed getting all of them.

I think the storygame had more chances to be better fleshed out, because dark situations like the ones I can tell the characters had been through were important. More backstory really would have been great for this storygame :)

Honestly, I find this storygame very underrated. I'm impressed. 5/8.

This entire thing felt like a small snippet out of a much bigger storygame, even if it is a good one. On its own, it feels like it's missing a good chunk of the pages and branches. It doesn't help that there are very little meaningful choices because they all lead up to the same result, or the game tries to take you there.

But it definitely is decent writing with plenty of description. It's clear that you've thought about your characters, it's just a shame that we got to see very little of it at all.

Er... this was... interesting... I've never played as a punk, stereotyped teen before :P

Like some have said below me, that whole idea of you being a punky teenager on a bored Friday night didn't much appeal to me. The story could have been better if the author put in some extra detail, of how you could actually solved your boredom, but it was too short and somewhat too, well, "punk-stereotyped" for my liking. I'm not really sure exactly how to put it, but if you play the game you may see where I'm coming from.

For example, this is how the description marks you: "You're filled with such angst, boredom, and cynicism." (Like a stereotype punk teen.) That's not really me, and I just can't relate to that.

The writing was good, at least. No grammar mistakes, and the detailing was spiffed as far as I could see.

Like Swift had said below me, I spent a little more than half an hour playing the game, and I can say it was, in fact, a lost cause from the beginning. I just can't relate to, or actually like being a punk kid (I'm sorry if I keep using the term "punk", but that's pratically the only thing that could describe the whole feel of the story, as well as the way the main protaganist and his friends are described, through their actions and dialouge, as well as the main protaganist's choices).

The story was kind of linear-ish and boring because it was short and a lost cause, but in retrospect, it was also interesting, because, well, I've never lived the punky lifestyle before.

All I can say is, this might appeal to a different audience than that of mine. Also, it could be a bit longer.

3/8.

It was good but I dont know what happened to dave

this was not child friendly nor interesting. very disturbing and limited options. would definitely not recommend.

I got the True Ending, was pretty fun. I liked how the protagonist, Dave, and Shauna were kind of a band of three misfits.

Wow. Depressing much? The writing was good. Needed more "oomph".

It could have done with more choices and story branches as it seems it's pushing you down one route at times. This has the basis of a decent story

When I first did it I did everything to not end up with Shauna but ended up with her anyway. Only two endings also, so kinda meh. The writings pretty ok though so, I'll give it a 3.

I assume Dave dies, if not, that's a shame. I think this is a pretty good little story you got here.

Not my taste.

HATE THIS GAME

This was just terrible. Just terrible. Terrible.

No logical storyline and the choice was minimal.

I don't know what's more incomprehensible : the fact that the story was just a lost cause from the beginning, or the fact that a guy your skill level bothered to write it.

Didn't find the concept of being a punk too interesting, and it failed to meet my expectations in terms of entertainment and quality.
