In what way does your game fit the theme?
My game tackles feelings of isolation and loneliness. It features an individual who has become reclusive and shut himself off from others. The game explores this idea in a unique method in the hopes of teaching people that human connection can be difficult and sometimes scary but it is necessary and ultimately rewarding.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All code was done by me with the exception of the character controller sourced from the unity asset store (Standard Asset Pack), art assets were sourced or purchased and attributed in the credits.

Nice little message! Good job on the atmosphere and lighting. This could have easily been a horror-type game.
This game really made me reflect on my own crushing loneliness, so I guess it fits the theme perfectly. It's simple yet effective in conveying what you planned.
Can't wait to see what other games are on the way.
i beat this game for a 5 sec. This is my first speedrun i guess
Sounds made really cool!
Really impressive time, congratulations 😂. I'm glad you enjoyed the sounds :D
Wow. Nice game!
Thanks!
This game makes you think about problem with loneliness. I think it's a problem especially in these times
I was feeling inspired ;)
The mood this game creates, and its metaphor for loneliness are amazing.
Thank you for the kind words, I worked really hard on making the game feel right.
Damn, I am usually a person whose not shy of picking up a phone, but damn, you truly made me not want to pick up that phone!
No joke, when I walked up to the phone and it teleported away, I said "Nope" and went back to the door.
The only problem I found is that the phone kept ringing after I answered it, but still, excellent game!
Thanks for letting me know about the bug, thought I fixed it already :/ I'm really glad you enjoyed the game. It was my first try at creating a scary atmosphere.
I was expecting some sort of screamer when i was walking to the phone, but instead i found a vise advice. Thanks!
The only problem i encountered is that the cursor didn't appear in the menu after i beat the game and wanted to play it again.
Thanks for letting me know, I'll look into it. :)
Nice experience, I feel like this game fits the theme really well in it's own way, the sound effects and music are well used, don't think there is much else to say good experience with a nice atmosphere.
I appreciate the comment, thank you.
This basically just demonstrates how so little can be turned into something awesome, the atmosphere completely envelopes you and the message is conveyed so powerfully, all while demonstrating an interesting take on the theme of the gamejam. Obviously this is a really, really short game, but it does quite a lot in that small amount of time, and I think with a bit more content this could be a really great game rather than just a really great proof of concept, especially if you were able to more seamlessly integrate the message into the game rather than having to explain it at the end. Great job, super impressive especially for 2 days of work :)
Thanks Sebastian :)
this iis really stunning. and creative. Its amazing! (here's my game btw would love it if you rated it!)
Awesome, I'll check it out.
Wow loved the direction you took with the theme on this one! Great work very creative! Although short yes, but in a weeks time I loved all the polish that was put into it!
Thank you so much!
Really cool game although very short.

Really nice game I must say at first I was wondering what exactly this game has to do with the theme but his confusion made the end even better. I must say even tough it's a very short experience I still enjoyed it very much. Overall very well done.
I really appreciate you checking it out, thanks.
I like the idea, mood, sound and visuals. The game story was good, but too short.
Thanks for your feedback, unfortunately, I was only able to work on the game for 2 days during the jam but I plan on returning to it at a later date and adding more content. :)
