"So, I made a game, right? I filled it with harmless funny puzzles, narrated it a little bit, and then players started making fun of it! They broke the game, ignored my rules! They... they... laughed at me! As if it was some kind of a joke! Why do they have to be so mean?!" - developer of Dude, Stop

What players say
I had a very enjoyable experience with this short little game and it definitely lived up to my expectations. The gameplay isn't anything too crazy, but the dialogue and story itself makes up for it. Minus a few visual bugs (and one bug where you could softlock yourself if you made a painting skewered and quickly put it back down as the guy comes back), I didn't really notice anything that ruined the experience for...
Can we PLEASE get a sequel or a game just like this it is so hilarious pissing the narrator off because of my totally low intelligence (which is not just an excuse to justify pissing him off lol)
