Great game! Hard but enjoyable:D

Developer

Really well done game! It got me counting in real life lol! The game mechanics are quite simple but engaging! It really messes with my mind at the start but once I got the hang of it, its actually not that bad! I don't really see the "leader" aspect of the "follow the leader" theme though and it feels a bit forced on the theme! The visuals are awesome, its really polished and the animations and everything really suits the game! The audio design is also very impactful with some minor dialogues and some alarms! Maybe a bit of footsteps and beating up sound effects would make the game better! Overall, really great game and I look forward to more of it (especially on what happend after the ending T-T )

Haha thanks!

The game was hard to understand at first but I liked the visuals and the idea of memorizing the correct timings! Btw I fixed my game you can give it one more try and rate it again. :)

Developer

Oh perfect! I'll definitely give it another try.

I like the idea, but I completely cannot do nothing. I tried many times, but I always trigger alert at the door with two guards.

Developer

Did you wait until the clerk said you are good to go?

Submitted

Oh, that wasn't clear. Thanks for the tip! Now it works well, though my internal timer isn't perfect.

Also I noticed, that instructions don't refresh between retries (only â„– of subjects do), but do when I relaunch the game completely.

Developer

Yeah sorry about that.. I didn’t have enough time to fix it.

Submitted

Really cool idea!
Unfortunately, it's a bit hard to follow instructions without a timer or something to keep track of the seconds.

Developer

Yeah sorry about that… It seems some people have an easy time with it and others find it really hard.

This game is peak

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
