This game's atmosphere was exceptional! Definitely one of my favourites of the jam :D

 I loved the 2.5D artstyle, and the gameplay did exactly what I wanted it to.

I think I may have encountered a bug, or finished the game? I traveled to platform 5, then a train came, and I wound up back on the title screen.

Everything else, except for that, worked very well! The pysch-horror elements shined through, and I look forward to seeing if this goes further!

With these types of games, there's always the risk of explaining things too much, but I was a little confused when the shadows showed up - the psych horror elements came in a bit suddenly, and I wasn't sure what was happening. Once it clicked,  I was able to immerse myself a lot more, but that transition felt a little abrupt to me.

The idea of the puzzles worked well, and I see in other comments that there may have been a bug with this in this build. That's all good, because the idea behind it works well so its an easy fix! 

The idea of station rules / your own rules is also really interesting, but I think more fleshing out here would really make the idea of making your own rules to get through the world work well.

Overall, great effort and I look forward to seeing if anything more comes from this idea! :D

(PS - don't know if this comment is formatting weird for you, if so I apologise! I'm not sure what the issue is :') )

Thank you for playing and leaving a comment!

In the intended gameplay, only platform 7 is correct and will lead to the next stage, while choosing any other platform will trigger horror elements and result in death. We'll adjust the game's pacing in the full version and ensure that the psychological horror elements only appear when the player violates the rules. This approach might fit the core mechanic better and enhance the overall coherence.

Additionally, we're planning to add more rules to make the gameplay more engaging . Originally, we design three to four stages with a complete story behind them. We'll keep working hard to bring that vision to life!
