I love the style of your game! The simple and clean silhouettes are so nice to look at! I know other people have mentioned the bugs, so I won't go into those too much, but I think it would be nice to add a little indicator that shows the player when they can interact with something! I found it a bit tricky to figure out when to use 'M'! It's a really cool concept though, and I would love to see more of it if you plan to expand on it! Great work!

Love the visuals of this - very polished! A fun puzzle platformer, well done!!

Really like the style of game you have made and the artwork is fantastic. It is a hard game but I managed to get out of the house. I'm not sure what to do after I've pushed the crate as I can't make the jump across. Would love to know what to do? Also, not sure if it's a bug but I jumped inside the crate and I'm not sure if something was supposed to come and pick it up but didn't see anything happen. Anyways, really liking what you have created and would love to play more once I know what what to do. It's not important but I think W for jump would be better than space bar and E for interact and R to restart but that's just my personal preference and I'm sure others would have different opinions. It'd be cool if the bed and drawers were jump through platforms too and if you could climb the pole with the camera on to disable it that would be cool. Overall, really really great entry!

Great entry! I am a bit frustrated to not find how to use the ladder in the second level. Also adding a reset key to start over the same level will avoid when bugs occur to restart all over the game :)

Great work on the art of the game, you created a great atmosphere !

I ran into a few bugs, but would definitely like a play a game like this if you ever keep working on it.

Well done !

I really liked the art and animations of the world/player! I wish I could have gotten farther, the puzzles seemed cool and promising but unfortunately I also got stuck three times in the second room from the box and couldn't progress.  If you ever make updates in the future I'd love to give it another shot though :D

Developer

Thank you very much! the game is still very incomplete, but I'm glad you liked the art :D

Super clean and simple puzzle platformer, well done! Really like the overall aesthetic of it!

Very simple and nice! It's a pity that the triggers of the elements are small (or bug I don't know). And I unfortunately never got past the beginning of the second room with the cube pushed. My character disappeared it seems during a collision with the cube (I imagine) and I could not leave the hole.

With more playtest, diegetic indications in the environment you can make a nice game! :)

The graphics are simple but clean ! And of course it lacks sound (feedback and atmosphere). In general your game lacks a bit of feedback.

A last point, is my incomprehension in front of the choice of the key M to interact with the environment. Why not Q or E (in QWERTY version) ? 

Don't hesitate to contact me if you make a new version! :)

Anyway, congratulations for the general atmosphere ! :D

Developer

Thank you very much for your comment, the game still has too many things to improve, it is what I managed to do in 4 days and I plan to improve it taking into account your recommendations :)

Really liked the artstyle! Also the concept was very calming. A very nice little plattformer/puzzle experience. My critique: Add some nice chill music and polish up the interaction system. Then, you got us a nice peace of software! :D

Developer

Thank you, it makes me very happy to know that you liked it, I will take your comment into account to continue improving the game :D
