Wow, you got me right from the start of the game with the voice acting!! I love the concept, the presentation of the scenario, and the way we go about curing our patients! Your idea for this game is amazing, and I can see it going very far if fleshed out a bit more - if you so choose!

Nonetheless, I must say that as is, the game is still absolutely fantastic! The visuals and music come together flawlessly with the "studious" type of gameplay to create such a beautiful atmosphere, given the circumstances of our vampire brethren dying, haha~ You did a very wonderful job, thank you so much for sharing your game with us!! ^^

really liked the voice acting at the start of the game very well done. I was able to save the vampires and only killed one test subject. Never did fill in all the pages for the book though are you able to and I just got lucky. To bad you were not able to add some more to the end besides you win on the screen but good job on your game.

Developer

Hey, you did it! That does sound like you were pretty lucky! Thanks for playing!

no problem I enjoyed it.

awesome idea managed to win on the second try, got a bit confused with the research as i already added said ingredient(think i had to add it again?) either way well done!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Not sure if it's a bug or it's just a confusing part of the game. Happy you finished it at least!

I was able to save the Vampires, the world is saved! Or is it doomed?

Fun game! As others have said, the voice acting, in the beginning, was very solid. The context clues from the book and results of trials were cool ways to slowly piece together the proper ingredient combo. I would’ve liked another letter with some voice acting on game completion, but understand the time limitations.

Overall, fun and unique game in the jam!

Developer

Ah, yes. That is the question, could have been fun if I was a bit more ambiguouswith the ending. Totally agree that completing the game is a bit anti-climatic without. But yeah, time... Thank you for playing as well as for the feedback!

Love the idea of the game. We were excited trying to research and mix the blood with all the different ingredients to find the cure. Didn't manage to find the right mixture because it gets way too confusing.

Good work!

Thank you! I wish I had done a bit better job to teach the player what to do but there was just not enough time.

Love the Voice acting... But I was pretty lost in what I'm doing, what ingredients I added... What things ultimately meant.


The Blood being toxic as a narrative is pretty cool... But... I couldn't understand much else about the game asides from, research (Which I don't know what it does), Get Test Subjects (Same as the previous), Sleep (Same as the Previous two) and Adding ingredients.


Unless I missed a book or something, I don't quite get it?

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, if I would have had the time I would have tried to make things a bit clearer. There's a book right next to the blood vial you can hover over(and click on) to read what the different ingredients do. However you need to research to unlock the content. Whenever you test the blood on a subject they die, and if needed there's the option to find more of them. Sleep does nothing except waste a day, only reason I added it was because I wanted one extra button ;)

nice game with unique concept!

I am so confused when playing it, but still enjoyed it.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Yeah, would have needed a couple more days to make things a bit less confusing, happy you still liked it tho! :)

Nice game, I usually don't like this genre but this one stuck with me, well done! Also the voice acting is really something haha!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words!

Wow the intro is very cool with the voice!

Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it!

A really cool, unique take on the limitation / theme! I did find it a little confusing but the interesting concept definitely caught my attention.  And I loved the voice acting! :)

Developer

Thank you! I went out of my comfort zone with this game as it's not usually the kind of games I make. Could have done a lot more to make it less confusing and more fun if I wouldn't have struggled as much with the programming :)
