Hey, glad you like the aesthetic and atmosphere as we put a lot of time into that side of things. We plan to add more features and improve the game after the judging period is finished. Do you have any recommendations on what needs to be made clearer? - There are tutorial messages in the first room that explain most of the mechanics.
Tutorial messages are nice, but players tend to forget them, especially if the actions you introduce them to are performed sporadically. So I would refresh players' minds from time to time, for example suggesting to them the keys to press whenever they are near an interaction. The final decision is up to you, though, but I am really interested in where you will bring the game ;)

There should be some pop-up text that appears with the key to press when you get near an interactable. I will check that there are not any bugs with it in case it didn't appear. Thank you for your message though, we will definitely be doing more with the game idea in the future.
Hey, thank you for your comment :)
Currently Steve has fixed the torch/text rendering issue, and now is working on improving the performance, we will be uploading the new build soon.
The key can open any door, but you need to figure out which one is the correct door by finding a plaque within the level (or if you choose incorrectly you can break the door, but this is not without consequences ;) )
Hey, I'm glad to hear that you like the visuals, I think Oliwia did an amazing job with the 3d models/textures in the time limit. I could look into the held items sizes/placement during polish. In terms of music we had only thought to add a basic background soundscape as neither of us are very experienced when it comes to music, I think it works ok currently but we could look at improving it when we do more with the game.

Yeah I will be optimising it along with fixing some bugs this week, it was the first time I've used Unity's HDRP so I didn't get a lot of time to look into optimisation. Our original idea was to procedurally generate the levels so we would need to find a way to handle the lighting without losing atmosphere. Could use baked lighting if the levels will be static though, again something I will look into this week.

Yeah the particle opacity behaves weirdly on the torch as I set the held items to always render in front of everything else to prevent them clipping through walls when you get too close, didn't have time to look into a solution for this but I will see if I can fix it this week. Thank you for playing and the feedback! :)
