Took some time to figure out what to do and how to solve puzzles. Luckily, I saw a comment here that mentioned morse code XD. Very smart game. Great job!
"Coming soon" - That's a pretty bleak outlook. Unless you mean that you will be adding more content to the game. That's probably exactly what you meant. Absolutely. Yep.
That was fun. Well, maybe "fun" is the wrong word - let's go with "great" instead. I decided to go to the basement first. It was enjoyable trying to unravel the puzzles. Good thing other people did all the hard work beforehand, because I still took my sweet time. The ending wasn't exactly what I suspected. But honestly, having deciphered the word from the puzzle beforehand, maybe I should have guessed. Oh well. Too late now.
I went back to see what awaited me in the forest. That again went differently than I had imagined. Unfortunately, the text flew by so quickly that I couldn't quite read it. But the gist was very clear anyway.
The visuals are very fitting. The "E" that just pops up when you stand in front of it was a nice touch. I liked your use of knowledge outside the game. It felt a bit like research. Good job!
Very creative game, the game play has a lot of potential, hope to continue to improve!
The morse code thing was creative. It only seemed to work sometimes though, since the door wouldn't open after getting the code correct, but then I restarted the game and tried it, and then it worked. I then went into the forest and died, so I'm not sure what else there was to the game, but I liked what I saw.
