This was a nice little game, it made me remember of old flash escape games.
Only stuff that could be improved are that there could be an option to skip the text, and sometimes clicking on the options is a little bit hard, since they dissapear before i can get to them, also some ambience sound could be nice.
But this was nice, congrats!

all really great suggestions, thanks for playing! :)

Creative game! Definitely got beat up a lot! It would be great to be able to skip text printing, to move a little faster when user wants to. :)

Developer

for sure, something I can add in the future! thanks for playing! :)

Just a heads up, since you use Unity you can set the embedding options to auto detect size so it scales properly.

Developer

I think I've tried that with other games before and it didn't work out how I wanted. I can't remember if I tried that with this game or not, so maybe after the voting period I'll try it out. Thanks for letting me know!

Great stickman style game. I really liked it. Although it would be nice to be able to skip dialogs.

Developer

definitely something I can add in the future! Thanks for playing! :)

I got out first try! Neat like choose your own adventure game. The art, although simple, works pretty well!

Developer

that's awesome! thanks for playing! :)

This was quite an enjoyable little game to be honest! Took me a few attempts to escape without getting beaten up. I was wondering, what were the inspiration for this game initially?

thanks for playing! :)

I knew I wanted to make an escape-style game, but already made a click-and-point escape game for another jam. As a kid, I used to play a games on addicitinggames.com, one where you escape from a jail cell through a similar mechanic of pressing choice buttons. (probably called "escape the prison" but I honestly don't remember the name).  The characters were also stick figures, so since I'm not an artist I used them as well! Though, the other game's animations were MUCH better than mine! XD

the sound effects were a bit annoying and the buttons never seemed to work

Developer(+1)

sorry you feel that way, but thanks for playing anyways!

Submitted

I thought there is no escape and all choices lead to get beaten up , I felt so good when i escaped 

loved your game good work

Developer(+1)

thanks for playing! :)

I liked the comedy in this game. Everything can get you beaten up.

Developer

thanks for playing! :) I didn't realize how easy it was to get beaten up, but seems most people got that option XD

Submitted

Fun little game.  The stick figure animations are great!

I came here for someone else recommendation... and I'm not disappointed!

Love the mechanic. A bit like the books "build your own adventure" ( Ended up dying too. But that might be my bad choosing making!).

Fantastic job. You can't but just but keep playing while wondering "what if next time...."

Developer(+1)

thanks for playing! :) really appreciate your comments!

Really quite good! I shamefully got beat up by the guard 5 times before conceding. I love subversive options (such as the options you have when in the foyer dressed as the medic), with one of the actually making things worse. I think it could have done with some ambient sound, and I think the sound effect (the typewriter?) for the dialogue got a bit overwhelming. 

Developer

thanks for playing! :) I debated adding background music to this, and ultimately went with omitting it, but it's definitely something I can add in the future!

An interesting click-adventure game that has you heroically escaping the clutches of one of the most repressive state security agencies ever to exist. 

Developer

that’s an awesome way to describe it, thanks so much for playing! :)
