Really great! Loved the unique approach, always love to see an innovative idea utilising the theme perfectly.

Things I particularly liked:

>Unique idea

>Audio (obviously): was great! well written, well voiced, very funny in parts! :) 

>Perfect use of the theme

>I wonder how much depth it would have in terms of the 'puzzles', but that's not an issue for this jam, was a fairly perfect length for a jam game :)

Things to tweak/improve:

>I guess the clarity of the answer is something that will be hard to get right, i found the dog tape one to be quite hard to figure out (i typed 'katie' in a range of different ways before looking here for clues).

Well done!

This is so good! I would love to know how you made the tape audio controllable - was it multiple audio clips for each tape? The graphics and voice acting were both amazing, the dog tape had us laughing out loud and the tapes sliding into the player felt perfect :D

Great contribution! It has been very different to the other games I've played in the jam.

+ Love the audio voices!

Congrats!

Good job! I really like the voice acting. The tape player was awesome. The game looks cool and I had some fun playing it. I'm glad that someone finally made something different than the others. Well done :)

Awesome idea! Too bad that, as unityplayer01 said, I couldn't pass the "Dog" tape for the same issue. I know were the phrase is, but I simple can't understand it, not in normal play, not in fast forward.
But the idea is great! Would love to pass that one and try other tapes.
Great voice acting too! (not your fault I didn't understand the hidden phrase)
Congratulations!

Please check mine if you can. Thank you!

Cool concept and really interesting audio!

(Also, I'm sorry I have to mention this on every jam comment I make but Rick's Flix is not my game, it's a collab I made the music for and I'm embarassed that it shows as "my" submission everytime haha - my submission to this jam is "Forward"!)

Fun game but I never finished listening to any of the tapes after I got the word ^^' 

Really enjoyed the concept of this game, and thought it was really well executed! Top marks to whoever did the audio too!

Cool game.

Was a bit apprehensive that it would need to know/understand ciphers, but thanksfully it was way easier than that.
The audio was really good, with some great work on the ambiant sound , even with the different styles.

The only thing that I didn't like was that there is no real point to listening to the tapes. I mean, the dialogues are funny, but once you understand that it's onyl about the hidden messages, you can fast forward through everything as a way to speed up and get any slowed down word, and rewinding when you hear something that seems reversed. So, it was a bit of a letdown, that what seems to be most of the work can be safely ignored.

But overall, really nice game, I liked playing it.

Just played through this with a huge grin on my face the entire time. Just great, hope you will continue work and add more in the future. I'd pay for this.

I had a lot of fun playing your game. I like the graphics and your idea. Unfortunately I got stuck on the third cassette tape since my first language is not English and I wan´t able to understand

Overall a really good game.

Really amazing game! Everything from voiceover to graphics to gameplay fits the theme and feel great, great work! :D

Would appreciate if you could play & rate our game as well: https://hadilepanda.itch.io/corewind

An amazing game!! Really enjoyed everything about it.

Sadly i couldn't finish it, it crashed D: I'll give you the details of what I did so you can look into it:

When I got the white cassette with the strange audio, I sent the two words: ||and between||, and green light turned on. Then, got the same cassette again but had to rewind it this time... when I realized it was the same audio as before, I immediately typed the same words, pressed enter, and the game froze there. Hope this helps.

I would really love to play a full game like this, it's super fun!!

Where do the new tapes come from? O.o

God that tape intro music is addicting.

This game is awesome! Everything looks super good, the ambience is there. I just wish there was some subtle background noise. You could just set your microphone down by your window and get some subtle wind/cars driving by, and it would totally complete the feel.

I keep getting Twin Peaks flashbacks every time I rewind the tape.

Overall, awesome game! Super innovative and unique, with a polished visual style and great sound design. Great work!

It's the most original game I've played from the game jam submissions! Sounds are very polished and immersive. The actors are good (I especially like acting in the bacon story). I'm not particularly good at English, but I understood the gist of each tape and I finished the game. I hope you can expand the game in a big story. I would like to give you useful feedback, but this concept is too singular that I don't know what to say haha.

Great job !

Interesting concept, simple and challenging. The sounds are really immersive. The grey cassete was tricky, it required two words, I just couldn't get past it. Well done though!

The idea is really interesting and original, this could easily turn into a full game, it has a lot of potential! I loved everything in it!

Congrats and great job! :D

Really cool concept, I would love to see this expanded.  I think with the fun writing that is already evident in this jam game you could make a cool game.  Maybe a narrative that only bits and pieces will be filled in once you uncover each bit of the tape.  Each tape depicting a slow decent into madness.  Great job.

I'm honestly impressive by the unique game play! At first, I wasn't quite sure what I was supposed to do, but quickly after, I realized how interesting this game turned to.

Graphics and models were simple yet good and wonderful for this game.

Overall loved the unique game play and very interesting usage of the theme!
