I liked the narrative and puzzles, but I couldn't get past the white door at the end of aeroport. It didn't seem to interact with any button or with the player itself... I feel outwitted...

Thanks for playing! It's a locked door--there's a keycard that you'll need to pick up to get through.

Thanks! I gave it another try and completed the game :) Should there be a score of some kind? Time or something? Nevertheless, very interesting game / story, even if gameplay felt a bit unpolished. The music also stuck in my head, nice haunting melody.

Thanks for giving it another go! The game is supposed to connect to dreamlo.com to store a global leaderboard of the fastest times (and show players the top ten), but the server has been up and down quite a bit over the past few days for some reason.

Could Progress that Much, having a hard Time to Understand, also the Talking is so slow and long.

Graphics are well made looks really cool.

But Gameplay needs more Improvement.

I honestly don't know how to progress in this game. I keep getting stuck between invisible barriers and the suitcases have that same problem as well that I had to reset the level and try again.

The voice acting is great (Cheers to whoever took the role of that one)! I do like the music, and I think the concept is interesting. It's just a matter of confusion on how to move forward is what gets me.

Keep up the good work though!

I really liked this games premise and the gameplay seemed really cool. Unfortunately I couldn't complete the first level because I kept getting stuck under packages, and kept having to restart from the very beginning. I think this game has great potential, and I hope you update it in the future so I might get to see what's in store for Dr. Haas.

Really nice game with a cool idea, leading to interesting puzzles, but didn't get the idea about the crystal and happened some bugs with me like getting stuck with my package over me sometimes, but for a 3 days dev, impossible to escape from this little bugs haha.

Felt really polish with the voice explanation and the puzzles, congrats!

Your score is based on your time; the crystals were going to be pickups that deducted from your time (thus increasing your score), but ultimately game jam is going to game jam, so that was one of the things that just didn't end up getting implemented on time.

a bit frustrating in some of the levels but overall...
Fun game!
Cool story!
Great vibe!

My character got randomly stuck between platforms  a few times, forcing me to rewind. But other that that, it was a good one! :) Felt very unique and the voice, the music and the graphics came together very nicely! Good job! :D

I like the theme you made really goes well with the voice acting.

Love the voice acting and vibe.
