I didn't really like it. It was too horrifying for me (I hate horror) and the movement speed is too high: I can't pass the platforms to get the blue key. But art is nice! Plus, for some reason, it doesn't work on my windows (probably because it's 8.1) but it works on Linux with wine, and I love it when a windows program works on Linux eh eh!

Developer

thanks for the feedback! Unfortunate you don’t like the horror aspect, but thanks for giving it a try anyway :)

The gameplay and graphics are very impressive. Also the story is very unique, interesting and sad. I enjoyed that a lot, good job!

Developer

thank you :)

Nicely made, although sadly the framerate(having around 10FPS) isn't that great (on windows distribution).

thanks! Yeah sorry, given the short timeframe I didnt focus on making it run well. You need a beefier machine to get the full frame rate. I’ll probably go back and fix this eventually.

This isn't even fair. It's one of my favorite styles of game. Take your five stars...

Developer

hahaha thank you! I’m glad you liked it. Lots of sweat went into making this.

Awesome game i got stuck trying to get the key on the ledge then it all made sense, love the camera on the tv reminded me of the ring

Developer

thanks! I’m glad you liked it. I’m also happy you were able to figure it out. I didn’t have any play testers so I was unsure if it would be obvious what you’re supposed to do.

I don't know how to get the bone for the dog

after placing the diamond in the machine take a stroll through the bedroom and see if you notice anything different.

Thanks for the answer, I've now completed the game, I really really really liked it, the style and the story, even though I found it hard to understand what was I supposed to do. You'll probably get my highest rating.

thank you for the kind words! I’m glad you liked it. I’ll be trying out your entry once I get to my computer. It looks very interesting.
