Often times ambitious or serious games fail in game jams because you just dont have the time necessary to polish and really deliver your message.
I did not understand what was happening or what I was supposed to do. Maybe im just ignorant or stupid, but I cant help to think that it just was not that clear in the game.
Also I could not "finish" the game. After finding the burning person nothing happened. Bug?
I appreciate the attempt to make a serious 3D game, both things that are hard and not usually tried in gamejams of this size. GameDev respect!
