Great concept and a really nice atmosphere with fitting music. Good job!

It's a great concept, by replaying your previous moves as Evil. Quite an interesting way to handle the theme. I like it! Also ooo spoopy, Love happy-looking games that suddenly turn dark!

Pretty cool atmosphere, and nice concept! I got stuck after a little, but nice concept overall!

This was a fun little game, I liked the aesthetics and certainly didn't expect it to turn into horror midway through. Fits the theme well too!

I also got stuck with the spikes, and couldn't finish the game.

Spoiler below: 



Are you supposed to use vedal as a stepping stone or something? I could not find a a way to interact with the spikes despite having him on my head.

Thanks for playing it! You're so close!

Using the same gimmick/mechanic you've used to get the key and unlock Vedal, but now on the spikes, should do the trick.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for making it, i liked it.

This game is simple, but very refined and stylistic. Very very impressive for the time we were given!

this feels like a good parallel to abandoned archive! i think it fits very well with the theme as a core mechanic. in terms of gameplay, i feel that the remnant should not kill the player, or at least it has to be made visible. it's very punishing to re-do the whole segment every time i die. it's still fun to solve and i believe this game has a lot of potential. the animation and art is really nice too, excellent work!

I liked the setting, the art and the music, congratulations

I loved the use of the simple light level, then the memory aspect of where all the levers are in the dark mode. That said, I couldn't get past the spikes.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! Slight hint for the spikes, if "something" else other than you was caught up there, you might be able to pass through the spikes on top of them :)
