Okey that's was an amazing quality little game. I thought I was missing some puzzles but it turns out I did all of them (I think). The scenes were filmed very well and the acting was on point! I liked the little touch at the end with the bloopers. Great work!

Developer

Thank you very much!! Glad you enjoyed it! :) We’re planning to expand upon the game after the jam, so there should be some extra puzzles added in an update soon. πŸ§© :) Thanks a lot for playing!

Very impressed by this game. Reminds me of old CD-ROM graphic adventure with real footages. Compliments to the actors (love the bloopers at the end). Very well done must have not be easy to pull this off in 1 week.

Thank you very much! Really glad you enjoyed playing it!!
We are going to be updating the game after the jam has finished with some extra content and a few bug fixes too,  so there should be an updated version on its way sometime soon :) Thanks a lot for playing and for the lovely comment!

I love the work with cinematics! It was done so well. The sounds were great too, but it would be better if players could fix them themselves. I wasn’t able to finish it and see the ending because some buttons did not work in the browser version, but the part I saw was very cool.

Developer(+2)

Thank you so much for that!
Sorry to hear that you had trouble with some of the buttons in your play through. After the jam we will be updating the game and fixing any bugs, so hopefully that should fix any problems :) 

Thanks a lot for the feedback and thanks for playing!

Woah, like did not expect full on FMV game, but here we are. And the cinematography was top-notch too. Holy hell, great work. It really worked nicely for a escape room game. 

I think I skipped few of the steps while solving this ^^; I mean in the end that's on me, but I scrolled past the tv channels to see how many there were and when going back only the glue was left of the channel. I never got to see some of the videos in the channels (in the first play through) ,_, But nothing to delude the experience really. In the end, the puzzles were nice, not too moon-logic, but also not necessary simple with some jokes and red herrings in the mix. 

Overall, really loved this, great work!

Thank you so much for your kind comments! Really glad you enjoyed playing it!

Loved your game, the mechanic of switching between worlds is great and the character design is awesome. Loads of atmosphere too! Amazing work! βœ¨πŸ‘

I really enjoyed playing this game! I like your approach, it's very different and interesting! I liked the puzzles, they weren't too hard, but there is one thing that was bugging me so much (I know it's probably intentional), BUT THAT LAST NOTE ON THE CELLO is just a tiny bit off key :D and that internet modem sound took me back! Great stuff, guys, keep it up! <3

Developer

Thanks a lot for that! Glad you enjoyed it! :)

Arina's an awesome composer, we loved what she created for the game. 🎢 If you wanted to check out more of her music, there's links to her music in the game description 🎢 :) Thanks again for playing!

Nice work! Always cool to see FMV games. The presentation and the camera work is stellar. The puzzles were not that hard, but enjoyable. Scrambling to write down the shapes in a notepad felt very old school. It would be fun to have more stations at the radio. 


A lot of positives, but if I were to pick a weakest part it would be the UI design & art. For example, I thought I would be able to click and drag the radio station line.

Fun to see the outtakes too, it was obvious you were having a blast making it.

Developer(+1)

Hey! Thanks a lot for the comment! Glad you liked it, it was a lot of fun to make!

Thanks a lot for the feedback. After the jam has finished there is a lot we would like to do on the game, we were just a bit rushed in the end. We're going to work on the UI for sure, and we're definitly planning on putting more stations on the radio 🎢 :) Also a visual input for the shapes too. So there should be an update soon after :)

Thanks again for your feedback and for playing! Much appreciated! πŸ‘

I recognised you guys from the last brackeys game jam. And you guys did not disappoint!
This game was so much fun to play! Obviously the visuals and camera work is amazing. The sound is great. And I really like the gameplay of having to like solve different TV channels while flipping through them. And I still love how you show the bloopers at the end of the game, Its so fun!

I thought a really long time on some feedback, but the only thing I could think of was maybe some feedback on when you do certain actions, like pressing a button in the shapes puzzle. But this is such a small thing, It doesn't really matter. 

I just really love that you can see that there was a lot of love put into this and you guys had a lot of fun making this!

I love this game, Keep it upβ™₯

Thank you so much for that! Really glad you enjoyed playing. Also thanks a lot for the feedback too, definitely agree with you. After the jam we will be adding feedback like you said and smoothing things out, also fixing a few cheeky bugs too. πŸ› 

I remember your game too from Brackeys Jam.  :)  Vanta Noir was awesome! Also your game for this jam looks really great too! Looking forward to playing it!

Thanks a lot!

Really cool concept and fun game, kind of wish there was a way to skip cut scene's by holding space bar or mouse key, and on the puzzle where your pressing keys with shapes there was a visual indication you've pressed the button, but other than that great game.

Developer

Thanks dude! And great feedback! We literally pulled an all-nighter to get 'finished' in-time.

Wow!

I was quite impressed with the game. I don't know much English so I got a bit stuck, but the rest ... atmosphere, sounds, images etc ... very well done!

Developer

Thanks Alex! Really appreciate than you enjoyed the experience even with your English level. Thanks so much!
