Do you even make games to have that kind of opinion? It was a game Jam maybe you should research how long a fleshed out game takes before being harsh on game you admitted to NEVER PLAYING. People love it because of how interesting it is and partly because they understand what goes into it.

I have made a lot of games in my time (granted it’s mostly just crappy FNaF fan games, so what do I know?) I obviously don’t expect a sprawling adventure from a game-jam game, I’ve participated in two in the past.
However, at least from my experience making game-jam games, four minutes is still pretty short, even for a week long game-jam. I think for a game like this, maybe seven to eight minutes should be good.
EDIT: I’ll play the game when I get the chance, although I don’t think it’ll really change my opinion very much.
