Not bad. Not bad at all.
Interesting concept. Decent use of graphics and sound effects. The cut scenes were very well integrated.
The gameplay was mostly pretty satisfying, especially the quick-time events, but it was also very close to becoming tedious after a while. Not exactly challenging either. Even when I tried I couldn't kill a patient. There also isn't a whole lot of replay value, given that there's really only one choice the player gets to make all game (to live or die), and it barely makes a difference. So there's a bit of room for improvement, but otherwise a very decent ppt game.
Intense game! I included it in my PowerPoint Game Jam: March compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
The polish with this game seems very high! Unfortunately for me all the text in the game appears corrupted, so I could not really get into the game properly (playing on OSX Catalina / latest PowerPoint for Mac).
Have you tried changing the resolution of the Mac? If that doesn’t work, try viewing the presentation using something else. (Like Libre Office or WPS)
I had fun with this one! But there may have been casualties while I was learning...
well that’s unfortunate
The game looks very polished. I generally dislike mixing photo-realistic images/videos with PowerPoint shapes but because it was so polished it didn't look bad. The animations (especially the more subtle ones) look good. The gameplay is simple (point-and-click) but the variations helped make the game not feel stale. I've played the demo shortly before the first game jam so congratulations on finally releasing the full game.
You're breathtaking
