Cool game nice design

I liked the experience a lot, the dream worlds were cool and you did a good job getting the message accross!

Developer

Thank you, thank you so much for your words! And I'm really glad you liked it! And we hope to create more games on such topics! And raise more awareness!

Submitted

It was definitely a lovely experience, it certainly made me feel chills with the message behind it. It´s so important to spread the word in some problematics like this, so congrats on that!

Spoiler alert: Maybe the ending could use a bit more  work, it´s like everything suddenly goes fine.

A great experience that I´m glad I could play!

Developer

Thank you wo much! And yes you are write the ending could be worked on we are acrually working on it as well, but due to time frame of 7 days we couldn't really come up with something that would feel a good curve and at the same time we wanted players to leave the game with the positive vibe and to give out a message that improvement is possible! But thanks for your feedback!

An amazing journey, had chills all the way, a really good message to spread awareness about I appreciate you guys a lot, thank you for making this game!

Such an atmospheric experience! Liked the overall Vibe of the game.

you can work on the quality of the assets a bit, and maybe help me with stage 2 in the forest, I didn't know where to go.

Developer

Hey!  Thank  you for your feedback, so basically in all the levels you are suppsoed to find the door which will take you from one phase the character's life to another phase.

I hope you can find the door!

This is a really striking entry! I appreciate your team covering a topic like this. Lovely concept and great work - your team should be proud! 

Developer

Thank you so much, means a lot1

A nice little experience. I liked the area with the huge phones. It gives the dreamesque vibe well. I found the last corridor fairly quickly so I couldn'T explore the second scene that much but the horror vibe was given successfully. I liked that it ended in a hopeful manner. Well Done!

Developer

oh yeah! so the last corridoor you are actually supposed to  go through all the doors which have words on it before the "hope" door, we didnt have enough to code that part that the hope door appears only when yu have gone through all doors but we will fix that after jam!

Submitted

Whoa, this game hits me XD, I also lvoe the concept of the game its amazing great job!

Developer

Thank you so much ❤️❤️

Impactful, Emotional, Important.

If you're having trouble figuring out what to do, just keep exploring. This game is very much about how you feel and should be taken slowly.

Thank you for making this.

Please play and support the creator. Their message is important. This needs more ratings.

Developer

Thank you, thank you so much for your words! And I'm really glad you liked it! And we hope to create more games on such topics! And raise more awareness!

The game was very interesting. A really cool approach of storytelling. I enjoyed it. But it was confuising at the beginning. I didn't know where to go to complete the game. perhaps you should add a path to the first two doors. And also it was a bit hard to read the text sometime especially in the first level. greart game overall

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! The thing is we didnt want to tell the player where the door is cause we want players to  get lost in the character's world of misery and the door acts like a "escape from reality" and from level to level it gets hard to find!


I am glad you liked our game  though! thanks for your feedback!

cool game! games like these should be made on raising awareness among youth and society.

I myself have made game for people to overcome their fears because maybe in this way we can lead to a better world ;)

This game hit close to home for me with the themes of mental health. Absolutely outstanding in all aspects and it’s got some pretty interesting stuff in it. This one is a solid 10 from me :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! and yes , mental health is a topic which is not widely discussed much in younger audiences so we thought this would be  a cool  way to raise awareness about it!  I am glad you liked it!

Submitted

Love it

This game really hits well. The storyline is well done. I felt curious the whole time. The hallway with doors felt really good.

Developer

Thank you so much!!!!
