I don't know if telling you how we used the theme is part of the game, but I'll still do it :)


Here you are in fact playing a man leaving underground and that lives to make people from the upper world live a better life. In the upper world, they all think their mecanisms (door, traffic lights, ...) Is automatic, where as in fact it's the man played by the player that activates everything .


We put the lie in the way of living of those people ^^


Hope it's a bit clearer now !

I liked the idea and this has the potential to become a fun and fast-paced game. The lift always got in the way of getting to the right lights but maybe that was intentional to make it harder. I don't think I understood the theme either...

I didn't get the 'the game is a liar' theme from what I played unfortunately. It's an interesting idea but I found it becoming tedious after a bit of time. With some polish and some tighter design this could be a really nice concept

Are you able to upload a macOS build?  You can send it to an external site (google drive, media fire, etc) and just have a link here so we can play and rate it during the rating period.
