Easily the most visually impressive game in the jam, the shader effect, the general cohesion, the black hole distortion especially, it's a gorgeous game. The gameplay itself is obviously pretty basic, but it's quite immersive and engaging nonetheless. Great job.

The mood of the game gave me Portal vibes I loved it. The puzzles were good and the cassette tapes were a nice little addition.

Wow, I wasn't expecting to love this so much but I had a great time!

What a fun, creative little puzzle room. Plenty of charm and fun things to discover, all with a great vibe of like... quirky hopelessness?
Really nice work!

Really fun escape room! Though i did notice that there was a bug where I could make the snooze button so big I couldn't press the "wake up button"

This game was really fun. I loved how you had to solve the puzzles to figure out what to do. I wasn't sure if I "won" the game, so the only thing I can think is to be sure to tell the player if they indeed solved it or if they died in the process. Just so they know if they finished the game as intended or if they need to try something else. Also, there was still one cassette that I couldn't find. Well done!

Thank you for your comment Julian!

I realized that it is not clear to win or lose only today :( testing the game again. I wish I could fix it for the Jam but patches can't be submitted anymore as I understand it.

To make it easier, I'll tell you: if you managed to get out of the ship and float into the black hole, then you won.

Found the fourth cassette and confirmed that I had completed the game. It really was great! Just perfect storytelling through game play.

Very well polished! Singularity has a distinct art style, good puzzle design, and fits the theme of "One Time Use." I would enjoy a longer version of this game. The narrative was interesting, and I like that the "win condition" was to push towards the black hole. I don't know why I like that, though XD. I do wish something would have happened when I tried to pull away, even if the point was that it was inescapable.

I also wish that the movement speed was a little faster, even while running, but it wasn't a dealbreaker.

Overall great work! You completed a fun and complete game that fit the theme.

Thanks for your comment!

I'm glad to know that you managed to win the game! And yes, I agree with what you said about being left with nothing when you make a decision that leads to losing the game. It's really crazy because I played the game thousands of times while developing it, but I only realized it this morning, and it was already impossible to make a correction.

Thank you very much for your feedback!! Honestly, I would love to make an extended version or a continuation after entering the black hole.

Take care! And again, thank you for reaching out to me!
