This game was great! It's a really good use of the jam's theme. The art style was also really good!
Thank you so much for playing our game! ^^
A nice subversion of the point-and-click genre - looking at the solved state and figuring out how it was before. Liked it a lot
Thank you for playing our game and liking it! ^^
This game was really fun. The art was incredible and the implementation of the theme was so creative. Great Job on the game.
Thank you so much for playing our game. ^^
It's cool you created an escape room first and then turn it around. Great idea and very well implemented. I love playing escape rooms and now i played one reversed.
Thank you for playing our game. ^^ I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Never really experienced escape rooms before. But now i am building one. What a blast!
Loved the artstyle as well.
Thank you for playing our game! ^^
Fun game! The idea is quite original and i think have puzzle potential :)
One of my best friends used to work in an escape room doing exactly this, so it was pretty fun to experience it haha
Thank you! :) We have few ideas on how to possibly develop the game more after the voting period.
The game was fun and make me feel like a dungeon master, but then the level 3 text appeared... i dont think it's the right way to promote a third level, i feeled forced to vote :(
Thank you for playing our game. ^^ I'm sorry to hear you felt forced to vote, that was never our intention.
Never played an escape game before but still felt the reverse mechanics. It was interesting trying to reverse my thinking and hide clues. Although I will admit in the second level I did click aimlessly at points, when I did find the correct place to hide the item, I felt an a-ha moment, which is a great thing to have in a puzzle game. The perspective of the rooms kind of messed me up a little bit and I felt it was hard for me to get a grasp of where I was in the environment of the room as silly as that may be. Regardless, I respect the boldness of creating such an art-heavy game for this jam in the first place!
Good job and good luck with the jam results!
Thank you for playing our game and thank you for the feedback. We feel you on the "aimless" clicking, it was hard to try to implement proper instructions with the time frame. Our artists definitely pulled us through with the art. ^^"
That's ok! You guys did a great job considering the time frame!
Really cool game, i've always loved point and click games when i was younger, though im not really that good at them, but i managed to beat the game. though i didnt really make any sense of the actions taken, but it was fun to player. Nice work, and impressive you managed to make all that art in the two days given.
Thank you for playing our game! Timeline was tight for our artists, but they pulled through really well. ^^
Awesome idea and implementation, very fun!
Thank you! ^^
Cool style!
Thank you! ^^
Neat game! It was fun for me, since I've played a ton of escape room games in the past ;]
Thank you! It's refreshing to once setting up the room, hehe. :)
This is a really creative concept!! This would be really cool with some more complex levels.
I have one question about something in level 2: What was the purpose of the note that says "LUV"? It didn't seem to fit into any puzzle in the room
We definitely wanted to add more complex levels, but needed to adjust our scope with the time frame. ^^
The note had a purpose, but again we ran into issue with the game jam time and being able to implemented it. Possibly in the more polished version, it will have a proper meaning in a puzzle. ^^
I was game master, I know ahaha. GAME MASTER THE GAME
i love escape rooms, the animations were really good, gameplay was fun, 10/10!
Thank you so much playing our game. ^^
Finished both levels! (Well level 1 was easy so not sure if it counts haha)
I like both the animation and art it's a unique style for the game!
The puzzle is a little easy but I assume if you make level 3 and more levels it'll get harder so hope you can the concept is great!
Thank you for playing the game! Level 1 was definitely made more as a tutorial, than a proper level. ^^ Within the scope of 48 hours, we didn't have time to make more complex levels, but it was definitely on the table in case we had more time focus on creating proper escape room reversed setting. ^^
I found the topic nice and didn't find any bugs. I also appreciate the effort of making an intro and making a tutorial (level 1).
It would be nice if you build a web version and if you make solving the room a bit more tricky (gameplay can be broken if you keep cliking random things in the room)
Thank you for playing our game! ^^ We were looking into making a web version, but sadly couldn't manage to put it out in time in a proper state.
Nice idea, fun game! My main complaint would be that you return to the main menu instead of the level selection screen after finishing a level, and that the third level was a voting plug ;)
Thank you for playing the game and giving feedback. ^^
Very cute idea with amazing art and sound effects.
Thank you for playing it! ^^
The idea is great, and I love the presentation, but I don't think the gameplay differs from any other point and click game in any way. A fine game overall.
Thank you for playing the game and giving feedback! :)
