Hey Looking Prism Team, I just tried this game, sorry to ask, but, was it submited to the correct Game Jam? I feel it doesn't comply with the Retrograde expectations.

I think a game boy/nes wouldn't run a game like this. As an FPS, I found the controls very confusing, the A and D buttons make you look right and left, you don't have the option to strafe, and the mouse is locked up on Y axis, making it have the same effect as A and D.

Another aspect: I can't understand what this game is for, I couldn't understand the objectives or what I'm doing. I'll not comment about audio and music because there's pratically nothing to listen here.

I think this is a good start for an FPS game, and I hope you continue to work hard on this proejct and present it on a Jam that's expecting it.

Hey joaoppar, I played PC via MS-DOS in the nineties. It was a real game console for me as a child. Since in the rules of the contests, the date is indicated - 1991. I liked the idea to create a game that could be released this year. I tried to make the 3D graphics and controls authentic and kind of experimental.

The project has a progression and ending, if people did not like the game design, then this is my mistake.

Nevertheless, thanks for looking at my project.

Mouse behavior and strafing in this game are actually 100% consistent with vanilla Doom / Wolf3D, which I believe was the authors' intention here. PC games of the era often used tank controls, with strafing either unavailable or placed on separate keys/modifiers.
