I really liked the concept  of the game and the direction its heading for, This game really has a lot of potential. I particularly liked the graphics and music. Keep it up.

Developer

Thanks a lot! I also ended up with something I enjoyed making and I'll probably push the project a bit more :)

The main issues i'm seeing are slow text, having to go through all rooms again when making a wrong choice (i was hoping the "rooms" menu would let me choose where to spawn) and the slow, unskippable credits.

Graphics are very good, audio is good, overall a good experience. :)

Developer

Thank you! I'm aware of the issues you listed, I'll make sure to think about this later on during the next projects I'll work on!

Loved the graphics - how the lights and glows are handled so you can faintly see some of the clues! Gameplay was good too, controls not clunky and the riddles/puzzles are not too hard/easy to enjoy!

Thanks, really appreciated, hope you had good times by playing it!

Honestly I kinda hated the game at first but it grew on me and before I noticed it, I was starting to have fun. Props on making a jam game with multiple endings! While not mechanically complex it was interesting and through some simple mechanics you conveyed a sense of dread and angst. The text being so slow would be my main complaint but that's an easy fix. This is a fantastic submission!

Thank you for your feedback!

Text elements are part of what I'd like to improve later on (faster, skippable...). I'm glad you enjoyed it after some testing :)

Ok I played the game to get to the three endings and see what I missed.

The riddles are clever and I wanted to solve them but it was frustrating to start all over again every time and it was just a matter of memory. I think it would have been less tedious to make the player come back in the same room if you took the wrong door insted of coming back to the main menu.

The graphics are nice and the music is good. I liked how the main theme slightly changed between the different areas.

Good entry! 

If you have time to check out our game I think you would enjoy it :)

Hi Stefano,

Thanks for your feedback! I agree that the game would  require some checkpoints because redoing everything can be frustrating, this is something I've noted in case I want to develop more content for the game :)

Enjoyed the game, it's got potential, I can imagine something like a procedurally generated maze of doors and each play through being a different maze.  

Developer

Thanks! True, I was thinking about this when dev-ing this prototype, it could be great!
