Thanks for submitting your game to the stream! If you wanted to look at the vod again in the future here it is timestamped to your game

Not going to repeat all the other comments, but its definitely an extremely atmospheric game with a great storyline and gameplay. As a Stanley Parable referenced game, I think one of the major flaws of this game is simply that there just aren't enough narrator lines for most scenarios, although that is of no fault of your own because there is simply a time limit. However, part of the magic of the Stanley Parable is that it seems always aware of whatever you are doing which this game just doesn't fully accomplish. However, like I said earlier, it's still an excellent game, but definitely needed a more generous time limit to be at its peak potential

Good ambiance and Stanley's Parable vibes. Unfortunately I stayed stuck in the 5th room, but I am still curious about the narrative line !

Submitted

Really nice game, couldn't solve the figurines room, but was extremely fun to play!

Hi,

Very great game!

made me sad and in a good mood at the same time.

I was a bit lost with the “play figures”.

very well done, I can recommend it to everyone!

Really solid concept that reminds me of Stanley Parable and Beginners Guide. The repeating room is a cool idea and a good way to use the theme. I did find it a bit hard to grab things, so I agree that either putting the reticle on by default or expanding the selection area would probably be for the best. The basketball section was hard but I laughed when I got called out for cheating. Nice work! And congrats on finishing the jam!

very fun concept! the puzzle mechanics seem unique as well. Sadly I couldn't get that far since my idiot self got stuck on the kid room level lmso. Good job on this game!

This game is really cool. I also found the sensitivity of the mouse to be very high (I had this same problem with my game, from what I received from comments). I loved the story and the puzzles. "Dude, it was just a joke!" jajaja. I love it.

Submitted

This was excellent, very well designed and I think you did a great job with the narration and overal story. 

Submitted

Great game! Really liked that all the objects are interactable and loved the voice acting. Could use a mouse sensitivity option. Overall, great job!

Deep. Really cool game, I accidentally picked up the table the laptop was on and after the laptop moved I could give the files to it anymore. Other than that Awesome work!

Submitted

Love a good puzzle game! A crosshair would be nice but this is a cool and well-executed idea nice job!

Submitted

Loved it and the puzzles as well

Submitted

Amazing game! the narration was on point, I filled a room with tables, the music was nice and the puzzles were good. On the level with the computer I got distracted by making way across my own sea of tables and so I couldn’t solve the puzzle, but it was a lot of fun!

Submitted

Really cool game, I just find it very funny how the voice know what I do and gives me tips when I'm struggling overall cool game.
