Not bad. I like what you were going for. I bet it could be expanded into a pretty cool experience.

Developer

Thanks very much. Definitely plan on doing so. For now, we shall see what happens :)

Atmosphere and pixel art was good, and the lighting transitions were done really well.

Good submission!

Developer

Thank you so much :)

Game has a really nice feel to it, and would be good expanded to tell more of the story! Really liked the character design and animation too.

Developer

Thanks very much convicted. Will hopefully get the game expanded on after the jam has officially ended

Working menu, spooky atmosphere and good visuals, I think the loading screens were a little too long for a short game like this.

Developer

I didn't get the "How To Play" menu sorted. I'll work on the transitions and work on adding more content after the review period

I love the ambience, the sounds, and the graphics, but that's pretty much about it. There wasn't much to see in the game other than the gory and disturbing scenery, and the dark man running outside.

Developer

Rushed job. About 8 hours roughly worth of development, on the game itself. Thank you very much!

I was able to get the final screen. The game has good transitions between rooms, although they are not entirely clear. However, the game complered very quickly.

Developer

We had a short time to get something playable. Thank you

Yep, menu is done well, and some elements like the dude out of the window are working. That being said, got into some never-ending loophole bug :( But there is a good base for a game!

Developer

That happens if you enter and exit the classroom. Needs a lot of work to fix. So will be after the Jam. Thanks very much for reporting that bug

Gave it a try! Really liked the janitor VFX in the main menu. The scenes took some time to load but I could handle it! The thing running away and the sound ambience really put a cherry on the top. I wish there was more game play 

Developer

Thanks very much. The scene load is an issue I'll try to fix after the jam. No point getting it fixed atm

The environment looks awesome. And the dude running past the window definitely got me lmao. The main menu was also really sick. Nice work!

Developer

Thanks. We really wanted to add some interesting mechanics to the game. Unfortunately, we were short on time. As one person put it, "walking simulator" hahaha. I'm inclined to agree with him XD

I like the sound design :) And the person that runs past outside the window is pretty spooky.

Thanks very much Bonita. Will pass this on to the sound team. Made the sprite that the art team made and edited it to give a dark entity appearance. Hope we can build on it after the rating period :)
