I liked the game a lot. The escape room being impossible in the first run fits very well with the jam theme, as you get your knowledge for the next one.
I would like the notepad to keep the notes between plays... for some unknown reason. I could not beat the game because some FPS usually gives me motion sickness, but doesn't change a bit my opinion, I had fun!
If you are careful with the timing on interacting with elements in the game, you can still play after the 60 secs are out, for example, you can move and do things with the level if you get the notepad out.
