Beautiful artwork, especially in the waking world. The ambient music in the dream world was a great mood setter. I like the gameplay of walking through the halls, very yume nikki-esque, but I wish there were some way of rewarding the player for exploring. Even something as simple as collectible notes with more story info in them would do wonders. Moreso than most, your game is really worth developing more in the future IMO. Add some more levels, flesh out the story, give it like an hour of content and you've got a solid indie freeware horror game based on the strong art direction alone.

hi, good idea, in the future we will try to post updates with new mechanical secrets, etc.

Thanks for the comment! :)

Unfortunately, while the atmosphere is good, the game seems to go nowhere. I ended up walking in circles until I eventually just got bored and left.

It's okay for a first jam, but it's not about to earn any prizes. Take what you can to learn from this, and come back in January!

Wonderful art project!  I'm not sure I'd call it a game since there wasn't a clear goal or game mechanics that fit with the goal.  But I still think it was a great experience.  It was fun following the bloody trails but needed some more interaction or nuaince.  Maybe like have a light (like what everyone seems to have done) to reveal the blood trails.  Nice sound design and music too.  Also, the artwork was cool.  GJ

I loved the music, maybe we can lost ourselves a bit in the game but I found my way to kill myself pretty easily..

I don't find the theme of the jam in it, that's a bit sad, I could've find it if they were a redemption at the end, but the mercy button didn't do anything... Otherwise it would fit the theme a 100 % for me !

It's original as hell.

Continue the good work 

I hope you the best
