I love puzzle games, this is really great! Good atmosphere. Congrats!

Neat graphics and interesting method of storytelling! Interesting premise, although there is perhaps too much backtracking involved, climbing the stairs gets old (though this may be just cuz I'm a noob). I do appreciate the smallness of the map, it leads you to scrutinize the details more making the puzzles easier for a bad-puzzle-solver like I.

Looks great, love the vibe. Great job for your first game!

Top tier aesthetics, but also interesting as hell with the horror and surrealism. Love how well most of the "moments" were executed, really a delight to see and play through. Amazing job here!

Looks cool, puzzles are too hard for me. Cool effect when you fall into the abyss.

Thanks for checking it out!

Graphics look simple, yet impressive. Having such a small world is an advantage, because puzzles are easier to solve. Details are mixed and the game feels surreal: the lock is small, yet the key is big; the lightning is from torches, yet the chalk numbers on the walls are modern.

This was really fantastic~ I loved the puzzle design and the aesthetics were on point. Your color choices were really soothing, and helped put me at ease just enough to get really f***ing spooked and every illusion of safety stripped from me. Hope to give some of your other games a go. Well done and thank you~

you are my candidate for winner, what a video game. The beginning, just with the text game and discovering that I could move, made me feel that this could be very unique. I love the visuals, and above all, the feeling that something is not right from the beginning and the feeling of insecurity that this game generates is TRUE HORROR, you have my 5 stars.

What an atmospheric game. I did end up looking around a lot in the game and I spent some time just enjoying the visuals in the game. Good Job!

I really enjoyed the game. The artstyle looks really good. Especially the purple Skybox looks good. It just fits on the aesthetics of the game. But to be fair, I personallythink the sound design could have been a bit better. Overall, a good game
