ok i am amazed.
First impression I had was: nah this was made way before the jam.
And no. It was not.
It has waaaaaaaaaaay more polish that what you’d expect from a 7-day project. Specially on the visual side. I kept on bumping on all sides to see if I could clip or go somewhere… but no. Solid. It even ran in 2K at 30fps in my potato Intel UHD.
The pacing is maybe a bit slow for my taste, but I can tell it’s an intentional design decision. Took me longer to figure out how to interact with things than to finish the game. I wanted to click things and see if I could read more.
I also had some peaking issues with the audio. But apparently it’s a Godot thing I’ve seen happen to many (including me). Lower the volume before playing, I suppose. But don’t turn it off.
Honestly I am surprised about the voice acting. Not a big fan personally but objectively it is done actually pretty professionally, considering the jam context. Moody, atmospheric, it’s like reading a 100-word short story that tells you exactly what you need to come out feeling different.
that effort was way worth it. and very evident. if this was done in a week imagine a full release. 11/10 would recommend
