Pros Great atmosphere established by the sound effects and dream-like visuals on the opening scene / ending scene Use of colour on the backgrounds was excellent Mood was coherent throughout the game, slow movement speed helped coincide with the hopeless and dreary tone Player was small to help imply feelings of weakness and isolation to the players, further constructing the tone Cons Very little opposition to the player's objective, there wasn't anything, other than the maze itself, preventing the player from reaching the goal Interesting concept of a maze-like game, however the core idea wasn't explored to its full potential and left out a lot of interesting possibilities Lack of visual effects to help add life to the game, perhaps consider particle effects or a portal for when a player spawns or particles such as fog to help further enforce the atmosphere This is pretty good for a first game jam. The concept was really unique and the atmosphere was fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more games from you!

I found it very hard to understand what the objective was. The gameplay could've been better and more interesting. Nonetheless, I did enjoy this game and the artwork, especially the background, was great! Not a bad game jam game.
