Really good visuals! First playthrough we got the "Bad Ending", and the lure of potential multiple endings drew us back for a second playthrough, but when we tried to replay the narration on the train never started, and the character was just stuck infinitely riding the train until we crashed out the game with alt f4. Opening the game again did allow for a second playthrough though. The other passengers were suitably creepy, and the amount of visual detail in the train was excellent. While the game had a really decent amount of content for a jam, it would have been really cool to be able to play even more- it felt like there was a story developing with all the items from the character's childhood appearing that would be really fun to explore further. Do you intend to build the game into something more after the jam? Because that would be cool :D
Thanks for the feedback! And don't you worry, we've a polished version coming very soon that addresses many issues, and plans for continuation. Follow me for updates!
Here we thought we were the only ones creating a train game! Amazing work on this submission. Loved the aesthetic and details of the models AND you even had time for a second ending!
Thanks for your kind words and playing! I am glad you like it!
Train games supporting each other 🙌
Yep, this is pretty sweet -- that ride intro is great and definitely the high point of the game for me. The multilingual audio and semilegible posters really seal it. The other passenger approaching is also nice and menacing -- I almost wish the narration wasn't there for that part because I think most players' instincts are going to be "what" and "get the hell out of here" in short order haha. Would love to see this built out and roomier, because what's here definitely has the craftsmanship of something worthy of a climax to something longer.
This is very kind and constructive criticism thank you! We're keeping all this in mind for a polished demo in the near future. In the meantime you've reminded me I need to finish your great game in the 2 hours the jam has left!
Really enjoyed this one, it felt very polished and created a good spooky atmosphere, I did kinda break the game by walking towards the big eye thing but that was on my second playthrough so it didn't really detract from the experience, overall great work!
Thanks for playing and feedback!
I am glad that you liked it:-)
Ps: the bug with walking into the void is found. We will make an update with fixes after Jam ends.
Really nicely done! Loved the creepy setting and general feel of the game. I was a little confused about what to do at first but it was a really nice experience over all, plus I was really amused by the inclusion of a Game Boy (because our game has a "Gam Boy" as well haha). Good job!
Hah! Thanks for feedback!
I will try your game with GamBoy too;-)
Very great atmosphere and sound design. I jumped when I first saw that face looking at me through the window lol
Very well done!
Thanks for your feedback and playing our game!
I really enjoyed the opening! I love the atmosphere you were able to set up in the early part of the game.
Also, I like the in world style UI.
Good job!
Thanks for your feedback and playing our game! :D
