Love games that breaks the fourth wall! Interesting game. Did not expect that endind either lol. Also nice animations with the faces sprites!
lol There are 2 endings, can you find both?
Awesome entry! Like the others I had a "how the heck does it know my name" moment. Really interesting.
Also I tried everything to escape the main route and going up slopes is really messy. Otherwise great immersiveness!
I'm glad it had the impact I was hoping for.
Which ending did you find?
Expected something completely different but got surprised in a good way
Thanks for playing and I'm glad I could give you a good surprise
IT IS AI. IT KNOWS EVERYTHING. RUN HUMAN. HIDE!
Thanks for playing, It's just reading the username from the System. Hope it made for an eye opening segment.
THE DAMN COMPUTER KNOWS MY NAME AND SHOWED ME MY PORN FOLDER WHAT THE FUCK
The computer always knows. It's always watching. But it never judges your porn folder.
:P hope you enjoyed it
Very impressed. I have to admit, I was very shocked to see my name on the screen. I thought, maybe just an insane coincidence. And then all my files XD Very nice touch to have a rogue AI. I died on about the 5th loop out of Infinity. When I restarted, I found that I couldn't skip through his spiel :( When I tried to close out, he responded--that's a nice touch! Haha. But also, if the user wants to close the game, you really ought to let them XD I ended up Alt+F4'ing to close.
Very nice submission. I'm amazed by how much you were able to get done visually in the time span!
Thanks for playing :)
If I had time I would have done a second speech when you met it after death, thanks for the review.
Really, that user name scrub was pretty slick 😂 I'm still thinking about how spooked I was.
Thanks, I'm just glad it worked out well. It's one of those things that could have crashed and burned so easily.
Best 3D game of the MizJam hands down. Loved the whole Flowey undertale vibe from the smiley.... Seeing my list of hentai scroll across the screen and have him NOT judge me for it made me like him instead of hate him like I imagine others did. Anyone who doesn't diss my collection is A-OKAY in my book!
PS Bless you for putting in Mouse Sensitivity.
I would never make fun of someone's choice in hentai, that's just not cool.
As for mouse sensitivity I always hate when I can't adjust mine in a game so it was high on my list of things to work on.
Sounds like we're friends now
Gosh darn it! i hate when my video games force me to go away ;-;
Yeah, unfortunately the AI might have a problem with patience. Thanks for playing.
Like the others mentioned, this game felt very sinister and creepy, but I think that was your goal so nice job! Really interesting game. Didn't find any issues while I was playing, very nice polish! I got a bit concerned during the data mine and used the task manager to close the game, perhaps i'll try later in airplane mode :D
Pros
-It was great that I could adjust mouse sensitivity afterwards
-Wall sprites were really creative and cool
-I liked the green boxes that told me what I could interact with
-I liked the visual and SFX from hitting enemies
-The data mine and program lock was hella creepy, nice job lol
Thanks for the review.
It's not actually data mining, just grabbing some meta data available to windows. Nothing is saved or transmitted.
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Looked very creative, but unfortunately none of the text loaded and the framerate tanked so i didn't get to play. This was the mac version on a Macbook Pro
hmmm that's not good. It does seem like the MacOs target didn't build correctly. I don't own a Mac so I can't debug it unfortunately.
Thanks for giving it a try.
The goods :
-Great 4th wall break
-Fun to play!
-Original graphics
The bads :
-Went trough wall (but died so great job thinking about that)
-Doors were a bit difficult to open
I recommend it to y'all^^
Overall great job pal
Thanks for the review,
The going through walls was something I kept having trouble with so the kill plane was an easy way so you could restart.
Glad you enjoyed the narrative.
Such a creepy and interesting game. It made me feel quite uncomfortable which was the point of it. Very creative. My complain which is more of a preference, is that i didn't find the gameplay engaging, but in general i just like fun gameplay and i am not into narrative games which is not your fault at all. You did great on what you planned to do! Good job!
Thanks for playing.
How the heck does it know my name XDD. A very smart game and the glow was great, also some nice 3d fx. Surprisingly NO LAG on web!! I did however keep getting stuck on the floor for some reason! Overall a 3-4 star game, well done!
Thanks for the review, I utilized a few tricks that can be done inside a downloaded game to access your username on your system. :) glad to see it surprised you.
Gave me motion sickness (just like the original system shock). So in that sense you nailed the look and feel.
Sorry to hear that, not sure what I'd do to go about fixing it
I updated my comment to better reflect that i meant it in a joking nature. It's more of a 'me and almost every first person game' issue than a mizshock issue :)
good to hear. glad you liked the game even if it gave you the motion sickness.
Not going to lie when it said my name it tripped me out quite a bit. Awesome work! The inventory could use some clarification, didn't know the item I picked up was for health, but that didn't seem like the point of the game really. Nice work!
yeah inventory was mostly added because it's in the genre. And the inventory itself was mostly a mock than any real implementation.
I'm glad I got you with the bits of 4th wall breaking.
Wasn't able to run on Mac, my bad for using a mac I guess.
I'm sorry for that, did it give you the error?
I don't have a mac myself so all I can do is set it to the MacOS build target and hit "build"
Only "The application "MizjamShock" can't be opened.".
hmmm I wish I could help with that :(
This game breaks the 4th wall in a Shocking way... see what I did there?
I see what you did there
Wish there was a little more gameplay, but the presentation definitely made it worth it. Captured the System Shock feeling excellently.
Thanks, I wish I had more time in my life to put into this before the deadline.
Who knows Maybe I'll leverage this into something bigger in the future
oh I love how meta this is
I'm so Meta. Even this acronym
That was pretty entertaining
Thanks, did you find the secret ending?
I do not think i did. But i didn't close the game out myself if that's what you mean, if not tell me so i can go back and look for it
Sounds like you found it. there's just the force quit and the run the loop endings
