Loved the idea and loved my neighbours. 10/10

Where do I start?
First of all, anyone who sees this, play this game. 
Excellent adaptation of the theme, genius writing and idea. 
Exceptional things I loved:
- The writing....
- Attention to detail, the world changes as we advance in the game.
- Special sections.
Some points for improvement:
- Moving in and out from the Terminal sequence each time was a bit annoying, especially after admiring the start-up animation the first time.
- A bit of a "future" suggesting, maybe make the reporting system a bit more advanced like maybe you can choose not to report anyone (it would break the amazing story you delivered here for sure but just a future suggestion). 

Cheers! I don't usually play this type of game, but you managed to include just enough 3D game elements other than the Terminal interaction, and your writing captivated me.
I can say it's the "Fullest" experience I had with a game jam submission until now.

Thanks for the kind words and feedback, I had ideas of making the player fill out a form to report people, add details like name, age and what apartment they live in, (I made a map of the apartment building to visualise who lives in each apartment to keep consistency) but scrapped the idea early on as it would have meant a ton of extra work.

The whole thing of the apartment changing with each day was an idea I had close to the end of the jam so getting that added I feel really helped with the environmental story telling of the game.

And ye the terminal start up screen is quite long lol.

Unfortunately, the graphics were too much for my laptop, so I wasn't able to play much.
The aim dot was a bit too small for me,
Otherwise, I really like the game till what I've played.

Sorry to hear about that, did you try change the graphics settings in the menu? Remember to also turn off global illumination and reflections, there's also support for upscaling that may work but I have not tested it.

Yeah, I changed all of graphic settings. My laptop is just in it's final days..
I'll note down this game and definitely play it once I have  access to a better one.

That's a shame, At some point I will demake this game for my PSX style horror game, so hopefully that version will be a lot easier to run.
