Game Off 2024

Behind The Curtain jam comments

I was doing great until the part where I had lit the candles and interacted with everything else and clicking the Pentagram did nothing, I've tried for a while I have no idea where to go from here. From what I was able to do the game seems pretty solid, the graphics are great and the puzzle are fun. My only advice would really be to improve the numbers in the safe and also the go back button, I think this is a problem with how your UI scales with aspect ratio. Also having a nicer project page with some pictures and a description can really help it feel more polished.

Game description
Unravel puzzles to reveal hidden entrances and unlock the secrets of an ancient ritual.

Theme interpretation
When I heard the theme, "Secrets" I immediatley thought of an escape room, where there are tons of mini, interconnected puzzles to solve that lead to more puzzles and more secrets. I wanted to make a game like that.
