I enjoyed this a lot! I would like to see the statistics on how many people played it but did not rate it because they could not finish it.

I have to admit I didn't finish it - I'm missing one of the lights, and I'm pretty sure it's related to the locked drawer (with the combination code). I would like to try to find the answer to that puzzle in the future, but I fear that I may leave you without a rating if I do and you deserve one!

I love the idea of the radio - it's very atmospheric and it was a nice way to hide at least one hint. I have no idea if there's hints in the songs because I cannot understand a single word of the lyrics unfortunately.

You managed to make it very outerworldly. The portal door was a really nice touch. But I managed to get myself stuck on the outer side!

I loved the puzzles I did manage to solve! It was a very well designed game overall. I wish you the best of luck getting the remaining ratings!

Good job!

This was really great - can't believe you've had so few rating so far. There are a lot of people missing out on this excellent escape room game. It had a lot of similar elements to the game we made, but yours is a lot higher poly. I thought graphically it was very beautiful. I loved the surrealist element of having a portal in the cupboard and food in the bathroom too. Very inventive.

The puzzles were also well crafted - I particularly liked the one that made use of the radio. Very clever!

One suggestion that would have improved the experience is making the object interaction a little less precise. Weirdly I found that I couldn't pick some keys up or open some draws if I was too close to them. I kept having to move myself back bit by bit before I was at the correct distance.

There was also a small bug in the bedroom where, if you moved close to the wall with the drawer, you could actually phase through it.

Great work overall though! Extra points for doing a proper Mac build :)

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! I checked out your game and you're right we had a lot of similar elements. I liked the item interactions and the depth of the story and puzzles in yours. Very impressive!

I am really impressed how you can make this much in a week. I only did 9 really basic levels, a cringe voicline, and no sound effects and music. Great job!

I don't know what the objective is, but I think it really encapsulates the vibe of having a wack dream and I like that, good stuff :)

Thank you!! The objective is to escape the room :) the front door is locked with four lights next to it. As you find keys inside the apartment, the lights ding and illuminate. Find all four keys to escape. I think we probably could have made that more clear and provided more direction.
