very cool concept and how you used the lightning.  It also creates a nice atmosphere and really hide the fact that the rooms are really simple. 

Developer

I was so confused at first until I read the about section in the main menu lol. Nice graphics and concept!

Thank you so much!

Such a cool idea ! I am thinking this combined with a narrator who pushes you against trying to discover bugs, but rather do it the "right way", and get's increasingly frustrated as you use bugs may be super interesting. That way the player can also get hints at what "not" to do if they get stuck. Very innovative.

Thanks for playing! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Interesting concept. Loved the graphics and music. Felt like I was a part of an experiment :D Finishing levels felt a bit weird as someone else pointed out, but I guess that is to be expected when finishing it means finding a bug :D

Great work!

Alright! great Art Style, but i better dont ask about the weird Game design choices ;)

Developer

sorry to hear about that, I’m a student and still a beginner 🥲, anyway thanks for playing it! ❤️

Interesting concept. I love your interpretation of the theme and I love your use of lighting. Would be interested in seeing more puzzles in the future! Only problem I had is that finishing each level wasn't very clear and felt like I was just walking around blind just hoping I'd trigger the end of the level. So some clarification of where the end of the level would be nice.

Developer

glad you like it <3

Developer

actually sorry about that, I’m a student and still learning stuff

That's a pretty nice character controller, it feels responsive and I like it!

The ambient looks really nice and pleasant, some of the rooms are a little too dark I think, but overall that's a good job! I like that some of the "bugs" are a little visible, with the edge of the walls clipping, and I also like the sound when you clip through walls. 

Nice one! Really good job!

I loved the game! Reminded me a lot of Portal. One of the things I like about the game is the lighting and how it makes everything look nice. Good job!

This is awesome! Love the color schemes!

Fun game! I thought it looked really nice; you kept to simple textures and not many, and used light to distinguish different rooms.

I liked the use of light leaks to give hints of direction, and I’d love to see it taken to the next level. Maybe something like a hidden room with light leaks in one place, but the entrance somewhere else, and the player has to use their spatial awareness to find the entrance.

Well done!

Developer

thank you very much for playing & reviewing my game! <3

Beat the whole thing, I always try review as many download games as I can during jams. It's how I submit my own and it can be disappointing when everyone only plays the browser ones. 

I like how the movement felt, and the footsteps where satisfying. Puzzles where interesting, figured them out pretty quickly. I did fall for the troll on the first level lol.

Only thing that confused me is when I beat the game actually, it dropped me back into the final level and I thought it wasn't over.

Pretty good submission.

Developer

glad you like it <3
