Judge feedback is anonymous.
- A strange horror / thriller with creepy vibes. The narrative revolves around your conversation with prisoners prying info from them to determine the item to give them. In actuality you listen to banter between the pov and the prisoner trying to guess the items needed. The art and sound is very atmospheric. The GDD was lite but had a well planned out dev roadmap. Overall keep making cool games!

Yes
Summarise your game!
"Today" is a first-person narrative game. The player will have to talk to the "residents" of a strange place and guess the objects they need in order to progress further.
Please explain how your game fits the theme:
I was inspired by the theme for the game's narrative, as mechanically the game has little to offer—it's purely narrative.
The game is inspired by the theme "You are the Weapon," both literally and metaphorically. The player is an active weapon used by someone to achieve a goal (no spoilers). Additionally, the game's backdrop deals with how humans are weapons to themselves, causing harm and thus losing their future.
Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
The atmosphere.

I saw "This Man" and decided to give it a try lol. I'm not really into horror games so this one wasn't for me, but overall the atmosphere was very creepy and seemed well done.
Also, is there a way to drop an item if you pick up the wrong one? I had trouble figuring that out and started over.
Thank you for playing !! yes there is a way to drop the item in the shelf if you pick the wrong one but is poorly explained sadly, jams mistakes. You can just click in the place were you picked it.
I like the visuals of the game, definitely giving off a creepy vibe. At the end it kind of gave off a little bit of The Matrix vibes as well. Would be interesting to see the lore expanded.
Pretty neat overall, good work!
Thank you for playing it! I've tried to make a weird creepy vibe, happy to read this. The lore is bigger but I didn't have the time to explain it well on the entry. Maybe in another game!
Well that was disturbing. But you did a great job creating a creepy environment, creepy art, creepy everything.
Very cool, but also, are you okay?
Is the second time that i reeive this question becouse of this game ahahahahha. Im good I think! Thanks for playing :)
