This game made me feel stupid LOL

It's got a great selection of puzzles but you really need to be resilient to the game trolling you to get through them.

Credit to you for all the eventing and game design. Well done!

The game isn't bad. Overall I liked it. One who does not like trial and error tells you. The puzzles are not difficult and that's fine. I found the puzzle of the path with arrows a bit complicated but I started to think and in the end I understood it. The idea of danger at every step is also good but perhaps the fact of killing the player (who must remember to save often) is a little exaggerated. I refer mainly to the spirit near the bridge and the ritual part. The cool thing is that in the last part you also disabled the ability to save, forcing me to repeat a small piece. For the ritual, I think that a minute of waiting is a bit excessive. Maybe you could have done 10 or 15 seconds (which is still a lot for a part where you don't have to do anything). I tried both endings and it would have been better if you had developed them a little more.

Hey, thanks for playing my game for IGMC! Glad you liked it! The save disable towards the end was a bug that i missed, it wasnt intentional. I also wanted to add more to the ritual and the endings but ran out of steam towards the end. After the contest ends I will probably be doing some fixes and maybe add more to the end so thanks for the feedback!

Some of the more memey deaths certainly aren't to my personal taste, but I enjoyed the puzzles (and am glad that I was watching Riggy's stream to see the solution to the one with the arrows because I would never have figured that out on my own). A fun contribution to the IGMC, and a blast to watch other people play for sure! Glad you took part and submitted! :)

Hey, thanks for playing the game! And yea, I had fun making it! The forest turned out to be much more difficult than the other puzzles, so I will make it less confusing after the contest ends. This is the first time I joined IGMC so I didnt expect so many people streaming IGMC games! Been pretty fun so far!

Rating this game based on how enjoyable it was for my stream! The puzzles can suck it though, they'd get a zero... perhaps even a negative one hundred. Just kidding... though it was difficult and I didn't end up finishing it, I still feel determined to figure that lilipad puzzle out. I enjoyed the challenge! The game was clearly meant to provide that and troll the player a bit, so I think people who make videos or streams out of games like this can seriously make some good content out of it.

Thanks for streeming the game, riggy! I had alot of fun watching it! Some of the puzzles were harder than intended so I will probably go back and see what to do about it. Most likely I'll do a small update after the contest ends. Again, thanks for playing my game for IGMC!

This definitely wasn't for me. I tried it a little bit but when I saw isnta-deaths with no warning I knew it was time to stop.

  • The Fullmetal alchemist references are as naked as, I think, they are intentional, but it wasn't too bad.
  • The game's tone isn't really set well. The bright maps and lack of details outside the bloody room don't help.
  • The Ice puzzle made me exit out of frustration: sliding should NOT go that slowly. 
  • Boomers walk way too fucking fast.
  • Game Over upon entering a map  and walking with no warning? Yeah, not for me, I'm done.

Completely understandable that this isn't your type of game! I noticed that most people made standard RPG's, so something like this is probably not typical. Thanks for trying it out!

I cannot wait to get the chance to download this haha

hope u have fun with the game nikki!

I could definitely see the Misao inspiration while playing this game! The start also gave me big Full Metal Alchemist vibes, though that might just be me. I found the plot and premise interesting, and I liked the diversity you put into the puzzles. I do wish that for some of them, they gave the player a bit more direction, though. I caught onto the lightning puzzle fairly quickly, but with the bamboo/trial and error puzzle, I struggled to figure it out despite the little arrows directing me (though that might just be a me thing). 

I also liked the sense of humor that was sprinkled here and there, like the reference to the isekai genre. It's a pretty simple game, but it had good direction and mechanics. Nice work! 

Developer

ok yea i was hoping the bamboo part wasnt too hard to figure out, i wanted ppl to get stuck in it for a bit but be able to figure it out eventually. Im glad u had fun with the game!
