How does your game fit the theme?
My friend​​​ and I created two puzzle-solving games as one submission​. Your goal is to beat an escape room, but clues that you find in one game are crucial to solve riddles in another. Both games are joined together with clues and you can't finish one without another.​

Really interesting idea! Escape room was a good choice of genre here. The puzzles seemed a little easy, but that's typical for escape rooms. I admit though that I had trouble figuring out exactly what the platforming instructions said. I thought I got it but the pattern didn't seem to hold 100% of the time. Anyway it was possible enough with trial and error. Great job matching the style between the two games. The 2-d game is a bit linear for an escape room: you don't really see the puzzle elements until you're ready to solve that puzzle. It's not a huge deal, though. I still had a great experience. Thanks!

I beat it! I had a bit of a struggle on the puzzle where you have to platform across the symbols according to the guide in the 3d game, mostly because I didn't realize I'd be able to stand on the symbols, so some kind of indication of that would be great.
Other than that, the game was super fun! It was so satisfying to solve each of the puzzles, and I had a great time getting through the game. Great work! :)

Very clever to link the two games! Liked the presentation and the idea of joining games together. If the 3D one can be updated to fix the mouse sensitivity issue after the jam ends, I will gladly come back to it!

Game worked quite well, we were a bit thick and will need to come back to work through the puzzle.

Hey, thanks for comment, on what puzzle did you get stuck? If you want help, just say a word

Very cool idea! I couldn't solve all the puzzles due to a mouse sensitivity issue I encountered with the other game. I become frustrated in the end when most of the time I was looking either at the ceiling or the floor.
