One of my favorite games so far, really enjoyed the smooth movement as the electron, it felt really satisfying to move through the loops.  I posted a playthrough on youtube if you want to watch timestamp 35:14 https://www.youtube.com/@constantanxiety7182/videos

Thank you! I enjoyed watching you play through. I'm glad you figured out most of the issues.
I played yours as well, cool mechanic and well made. But could be a bit tough figuring out how to use it at times.

wow, this is a nice looking game, but unfortunately it works with a very low fps on my pc, it's hard to play because of it :-(

Developer(+1)

Thanks for trying it! Sorry about that, it's really very bad performance I know. I had issues with the lighting and the movement would be off sometimes.

Very atmospheric, I did panic when I started the game an though I was lodged into to the wall only to find I was the orb in the cord all along.  While exploring I did enter a power module and got stuck but it is an interesting concept. Good Stuff

Thanks for playing! Sorry we couldn't iron out all the bugs in time.

It was interesting to say the least and very atmospheric. I liked it. I had the same issue once, after I failed to connect with an android, the camera "fell down" and when I connected to the android, it was stuck in the floor.

Developer

Thanks! Sorry we couldn't quite work out all the issues, thanks for the feedback.

I liked the mechanic and how you made it, mid of the game I was like, I have to comment that these other dimensions need something more than just pressing W and then there was :D 

I do have to say though that I almost got a headache from the movement and how things looked, very like "I'm passing out and seeing a bit fuzzy" kind of feeling I got.

I couldn't get back anymore from the 3 wires, when I chose one of them and it went to the room, where I couldn't do anything yet, and then I decided well I needed to choose another one of them, so let me just go back and see, I went all the way to the start, but it didn't jump there anymore (probably did something wrong there though, I'm not the greatest at puzzles, not my cup of tea) 

But overall good work on the game! 

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, wasn't quite able to smooth out everything for it, thanks for the feedback.

I am trying to play and when I attempt to start, it has to download some C++ library and this install is failing on my machine :(

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Developer

Sorry about that, was unable to really nail down all the bugs.

Submitted

no no - not your fault. My machine is failing to install the C++ components. Any plans to upload a webGL version? The screenshots I've seen make this one look sweet so I hope I can get this install working :/

Developer

Sorry, it's a ue5 game, and really not very performant haha. I really appreciate the interest.

Very interesting game you had here. The setting that was set up really made it feel scifi and all.  Good use of the 2d/3d perspective as it made it feel like you were electricty going from a cord to robot.  Very enjoyable. I did run into two small issues I like to point out. At the part where there were three wire to choose from and I chose the right one, i went into the room and I thought i had to go back, when that happen, it resulted in the electric orb to fly off the wire so he was hanging out there. Then it made it where it connect to the robot and it was lowering down looking up. I have a screenshot.  Just pointing out that small issue I ran into but overall very interesting game you have here :)

Developer

Thanks! We couldn't quite work out all the bugs, so thanks for your feedback.
