I like this game. I don't like the poor light and the place so empty. Also, I think it needs more puzzles easier and harder later. But It's a good job!
The mood and art looks very nice and movement feels good.
Unfortunately I couldn't get through the first puzzle with the levers. I fell down in a pit twice and died.
Music felt a bit obnoxious for me. Game looks promising, wish I could get further.
I really liked the mood and the puzzles were nice. Also the ending was kinda unexpected, in a good way tho. Nice job!🗿🗿
An incredibly enthralling 20 minutes that incorporated both deafening silence and brilliant moments that cut through it. Very intriguing game that had me on board from beginning to end!
Fun game, has some nice machanics, and I actually beat it. The atmosphere was particularly good. I do have something to say about the gas mask. It started out as a pretty cool gimick, having to preserve oxygen. but I really didn't like how it reduced the players vision by a lot. maybe make it a bit transparent or something. but besides that, it was a pretty fun game with some real hard puzzles!
and also 🗿
Great game. keep it up♥
Sound Effects are quite good but Visual Clarity is needed. Concept is great though.
It presents an intriguing puzzle-exploration experience with an atmospheric cave setting. The challenging puzzles and reliance on environmental cues contribute to its appeal. However, the game could benefit from improved visual clarity, especially in darker areas.
Cool puzzle/exploration game :) Took me some time to figure out how items work and the correct order of levers.
A very enjoyable game! I really liked the concept of exploring a cave however I had a hard time finding things I needed to do, like clicking on levers for example, that is because it was way too dark, even with the flashlight on, but thats the only issue I had. Overall great game, very nice!
Over all I enjoyed it. I really like those puzzle solving first person RPGs. Thumbsup!
At some point I died and didn't know why, maybe some hints could be useful.
Other people stated that the visual clarity wasn't that good but I think that actually is the charme of this game. Giving this dark atmosphere. I liked it!
I had a lot of difficulty seeing in the caves and struggled to recognize the objects on the walls from the walls. I also had trouble with scrolling through the Journal menu. Altogether a bit of a frustrating experience, but the general vibes were good.
Pretty good game! The random transition with the car and the music made me chuckle a little. The puzzles are fun but the lighting seemed really dark on my monitor.
