How did you/your team interpret the theme?
In our game, your character slowly becomes one of the lost children and joins them only to show up later in another player's run
How was your/your team's experience in this jam?
we had a good time. The 2 week time limit was perfect.

Wait! There is a multiplayer version! Nice!
Hello!
Thanks for checking out the project!
Yeah, the multiplayer version is asynchronous where anything you do (move items, solve puzzles) is carried over to the next player's game. Including your death. When you lose or quit the game it keeps track of that and will have a chance to spawn more lost kids for the next person as, story-wise, your character joins the lost kids.
That’s a really neat idea! I absolutely loved this game. Really looking forward to what you guys make next :)
Could have sworn I rated this already, but great entry!
Think I hit a bug when I grabbed the devils mask half, got some glue on it, and then accidentally ran into the teddy bear... the mask half was gone and I couldn't advance
Hello,
Thank you for trying out the game!
I think when you put the glue on the mask half it disappears as intentional. The glue bottle "station" holds onto it and waits for you to bring the other half. If you bring the other half, it should spawn the full mask.
This was really cool, great atmosphere. Reminds me a lot of the original Alone in the Dark with the creepy but very brightly coloured haunted house. I enjoyed it a lot but then ran out of ideas for what to do next after getting the jagged key and then I accidentally glitched out of the map.
Cool concept though, look forward to seeing how it ends!
Any chance of a web version for non-Windows users?
Hello,
Yep, I also submitted one with (single player) appended that runs in browser. It doesn't sync item locations per playthrough and it doesn't spawn lost children based on those who died before you, so it's not the definitive experience, but it gets the point across I think.
