Not a bad game, but there was room for improvement. I had an issue where I would try and turn on a lamp or open a drawer, and the it would select the item multiple times, making it difficult. The shadows in the environment would come and go as I moved around.

It would of been nice to have the room be bigger with a couple dead ends. Maybe add a sound for footsteps for the creature to add tension. For the short amount of time it is not bad, just think there could of been a few things included to make it a really fun short horror game.

BTW I made it out without issue. Can you die/loose?

Yes there are various issues. I have no idea what causes the shadows to come and go and I'm very prone to blame unity for it because the environment is so simple.

When you say that the items get selected multiple times, do you mean that the outline appears/disappears multiple times as you try to look at the object?

Agree on the bigger room and creature footsteps, I would have loved to add more stuff to add tension but I just run out of time for the jam.

The real question is can you win?! The creature gets you at the end :P anyway the answer is no, no time :c

I understand the time constraint, was just stating some things that would of made it a bit more fun.

As for the items, when I clicked the item it acted like I clicked it 3-6 times. Like the radio would turn on and off multiple time, the light would do the same thing. The irritating one was the drawer. It would open part way then close. I would have to wait on the drawer to fully close to try and open it again.

Yes, I appreciate your input :)

Huh that's really weird, you're the only one that reported this bug. I can't reproduce it in my browser. I've also checked the code and it shouldn't be possible. Perhaps your mouse is sending multiple clicks?

That could be, it is an older mouse.

Good luck with future game, looking forward to seeing what else you have to offer in the future.
