I absolutely loved this game! The art style and aesthetic of it was incredible, it felt so eerie walking around in the black and white world. The darkness contrasted by the bright white objects really stood out! And the hands! I saw one of them slowly come into view and was creeped out at the same time as being mesmerized. Then I walked around a little and was met with another! All I can say is that the art was beautiful.

The game mechanics are quite simple, and I failed to find this mystery creature that was supposed to be chasing me, but it was still enjoyable. At first I was a little confused, as I kept trying to put the fuel into the place where you start the engine, but once I found the furnace on the other side, I was good to go! The machine was incredibly cool, I loved the design of it, and its walk animation was awesome. I wasn't able to get it all the way to the end, I just couldn't find all the fuel, but it was a very enjoyable experience. However, it does get extremely dark in areas, which made it kind of hard to navigate/find the fuel. The darkness isn't necessarily a bad thing, but some more trees/leaves would help guide the player. Also, I did face a bug, while the machine was going uphill, I got stuck in it's leg and had to restart.

For some feedback, I think this game could really benefit from some music or ambient background noise. It's completely silent, except for the footsteps, for a lot of the game. The waterfall bit was really nice in part due to the ambient sounds of the water, which I think could really help out the rest of the game. 

Overall, I have to say this was one of my favorite games from the jam. The art really stood out, and matched perfectly with the story/adventure you were trying trying to portray. And while you didn't necessarily tell the story directly to the player, I found myself creating it in my head. I think if this game added in the enemy that's supposed to chase you, add sounds and do a little bug patching, this game will be even better! I'd love to see more from this game, and hope you'll continue working on it :D

Thanks for playing our game! I'm sorry you had trouble with the garden. With the enemy outside, the light shows their view area, so try to avoid going into it. Also, for the second the enemy, there are bear traps placed on the floor, so avoid stepping on those! I hope this helps :D

Really well made game! I loved the aesthetic and cutscenes. The office maze was really cool, and I really liked the blue glow of the watercoolers, especially when it got dark. I'm not sure if it was a bug or not, but I picked up a flashlight from the bosses desk, which I assume wasn't supposed to be there since you get another on the dead person. Also, the flashlight was floating during the printer cutscene, when it first appears. Other than that, well done!

Thanks for letting me know! We just looked into it and there seems to be a bug that makes the lights, that are supposed to guide you in the darkness, not appear sometimes. 

You might be able to hit continue if you just closed the game. Otherwise, you can only get that bonus once, so it won't show up on new game again. If you can get back there, try walking straight up until you see something. Sorry for the trouble.

We'll add that patch to a more major update we're working on. When we update, the saves get cleared unfortunately. So we want to make this update worth playing again with more endings, fixes to the enemies, more gameplay, and more secrets 😼

Thanks again and sorry the bonus didn't work for you 😅

Great job on the game! I liked the art, and the story was very interesting, I wasn't expecting the twist! I'd love to see where the story goes, I want to know if their performance was good enough! Only thing I'd say is I wish Lara had a dialogue portrait, other than that, well done!

The art was so good! I loved the contrast of the non serious, silly clowns and the dark murders they're investigating. The story was laid out really well, and I was interested in discovering it in each of the dimensions. Overall, you did amazing making this game!

Great job on the game! I liked the ghost models! I wasn't 100% sure how to use the jewel powers, but I still had fun playing. Well done!

Well done on the game. It looked nice, had a spooky atmosphere, but there wasn't a lot of substance to the game. It felt like more should have happened. It's a great start, I'd love to see more from this game. Great job!

The audio of the person whispering what to do was really creepy and cool! The aesthetic, audio and cutscenes were all great. I really liked the mirror mechanic, really creative!

Sadly, I wasn't able to play all of the game as I couldn't figure out what to do. I found the book on the wall, but couldn't interact with it and taking it's picture didn't work either. I'd love to come back and play the rest if you'd give me pointers on what to do :D

The credits were very unexpected 😂  I liked the look of the menu, but I wasn't really sure what to do at first, like how to start the game. Overall, great job!

Thanks for playing the game again! I'm glad some people were able to find the second ending :) The third ending is a lot more hidden, but we felt like it made it more rewarding to find. Especially for people who read all the dialogue and were able to pick up on the hints. Thanks for sticking around to play, even through all the bugs and rebalances :D

Thanks for playing our game, and thanks for the feedback! We're working on making the boss have better feedback, and giving the player more to do during the fight! We will also look into the dialog issue you faced. Thanks for giving our game a go :D

Just watched your VOD, thanks for the feedback! The suggestions with the dog boss fight are much appreciated. I'm glad you liked our game :) Also, a lot of the story and theme are shown through exploring the house, interacting with the environment and especially finding the other endings! Thanks for playing our game :D

Edit: I also just wanted to thank you for going through each persons game and giving a live review. I respect the effort you're putting in to give feedback and support to all the people in this jam! The videos really help in seeing a players viewpoint. As someone who already knows everything that supposed to happen in the game, it can be easy for devs to overlook things!

Very cute and spooky game! The art was amazing, the story was very interesting and the puzzles were fun. Very interested in seeing more from this game! Overall, great job on this game!

Very interesting. I don't have a lot to say about it, other than that the concept sounds interesting. I'd be cool to see what you do with this game. Can't wait to see the latest Last of Us!

You did well making this game. I like the visuals, sounds and concept. I did have some issues, specifically, the particle effect surrounded my character and I could barely see, I could walk through the washing machines, and the menu hides your mouse so I couldn't click on anything and ESC didn't close it. Overall, good job on the game.

Great job on this game! It was really creepy and interesting. The art and atmosphere were amazing, and having so many different endings was really cool! One issue, I wasn't sure what turni pulizia macchine means, but I'm assuming it's in Italian still. Also, in the English credits, I think Sonia Bertuccioli is on the wrong line, which doesn't matter much, but I thought you'd want to know. Overall, you did amazing making this game!

Hey! I'm glad to hear you liked our game, and am honored to have inspired answers in development for your future game! I think with the right motivation, you'll be able to create an amazing game, and know there are great resources on YouTube for any kind of problem you may encounter! We faced many challenges, bugs and problems while developing our game, and I'm sure we'll face many more, but even so we were able to make something we are truly proud of.  As such, I believe if you also work hard on your game, you'll be able to do great making yours! I'm excited to see what you create!

Thank you so much for playing and making a video! I'm glad to hear you liked the art :) I really appreciate the video and commentary, as it really helps us see and hear what going through a players head. This was really helpful as we were able to see first hand what someone, who doesn't know everything already, is experiencing while playing! We appreciate the feedback, and will work on making the dog boss fight easier to understand what to do. Also, there are two brothers, a younger and older (Jason). 

Also, I was quite surprised when I played Fragile Sun and saw another Tedward. 😂

Great job on this game, it was a lot of fun! You got me with two of those scares, especially the one at the start by the lantern 😂 The art looked awesome, and the game ran smoothly.

 My only problem was that the gun felt a bit useless, except for the last bit. I wish there were more things to shoot with the gun. Also, it was a little difficult to tell if the gun was even doing damage to the guy at the end. I wish there was some sort of sound or effect to show it was. Other than that, the game was great, well done!

Great game! The art, the storytelling, the audio, it's all fantastic. It was spooky, interesting and very polished. You did amazing making this game!

Great job on this game! I had a lot of fun fighting the the milk demon, though I wish the breathing circle was a little larger. The art was great, the game ran great and the story was interesting and funny.  Poor PP... 

I did have one issue with the audio settings not wanting to be adjusted, I could only start moving the slider if I hovered my mouse at the very beginning or end of the bar. Other than than that, well done!

Well done on the game! I wasn't really sure what to do at first, but I got the hang of it. The art aesthetic was nice, and I liked the fish eye effect. The game ran smoothly and was enjoyable, great job!

The game was pretty cool, and I liked the snake. I got lost for a while, but eventually found the way out 😅

The straight exe file made me second think playing, so I'd recommend not doing it that way, it'll put others off from wanting to try out your game without some protection like a virtual machine. Other than that well done.

This game was really well made! I had a lot of fun playing it, though it was kind depressing sometimes when I got one hit😥The cards could be pretty brutal sometimes, and extremely kind at others, very luck dependent.

My first play through was really tense as I kept bobbing down to 2 health and barely squeaking out a win, to get a little more health back. the enemies were pretty tough, which kept it exciting. 

My only problem was that I wasn't sure if I should round up or down for vampiric vigor. Other than that, well done!

This game was so well made! All the minigames were fun, the story was really interesting, and aesthetics were great.  Great job on this game!

Great job on the game! The art aesthetic was great, and I loved looking at all the creatures! Did encounter some bugs, like dropping a food plate which went through the floor and walking through a closed door, getting my character stuck. Other than that, the game was really cool! Well done.

Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you liked the game.  I'm sorry to hear you weren't able to finish the dog boss. There are other hidden endings that don't require you to fight him, if you'd like to try and find those. I may release a downloadable file for the game in the future. Thanks for playing :D

Make sure you read the items/interactables very carefully, especially when other characters write things down!

Thanks for playing through the game and finding all the ending! I'm glad all the hints we put in worked! I don't know if you saw it or not, but there might be a special bonus for those who found all the endings! We are working on another update, for some bugs + fixed content, which may clear the saves. So you might want to look soon :)

I talked to the host of the jam and they told me they allow updates to your game at any point, as well as late submissions. I've done a couple updates for my game, but its up to you in the end. Still a great game either way.

Thanks for pointing this out, it is a bug. We will work on fixing this. There was a oversight where you can only get each ending once. Because of this, the item needed for the endings won't respawn 😅

We have a fix that will come with some other updates soon.

In the meantime, avoid going into the basement boss room.

Thanks again for playing and finding all these bugs! 

This game was great, I had a lot of fun playing it! The story was fantastic, the characters looked great and their was some good comedy sprinkled in. The enemies were pretty tough, but I made it. It was cool seeing more lore on Sitanel. 

You did great making this, it was pretty long and it was getting late, so I kept telling myself I'd do one more floor and come back tomorrow, but I got so hooked I ended up playing the whole thing 😂

Well done with the game! It was eerie seeing the room slowly filled up with computer so that I could make more and more money. I'm not sure if it was meant to be the ending or if it was bugged, but my character collapsed and I could no longer do anything. If it was the ending, consider making it more obvious that it was the end. Other than that, great game!

This game was a lot of fun. All the gun were cool, but the shotgun was my favorite :) Great job on the game!

I loved the art style in this game! I don't have a lot to say story wise, it was pretty good so far, it feels like just the beginning. I'd love to see more from this game and where the story ends up going. Also the dog was cute. Overall, great job!

Very fun game! The animation of the cups was amazing, and the art was great. I did encounter a bug, after I beat the bartender once, and it started another round, but froze and I had to close the game. Other than that, great game!

Great job on this game! The art and story was really good, and I had fun with the fighting mechanic! Also, the characters all looked amazing.

I was really engaged with the story, which left me wanting to learn more about this world you created, especially Sitanel! 

Overall, well done!

Great job on this game! The art was amazing and the story was beautifully written. The music also matched perfectly. You did great writing the story, it had me hooked all the way through! The candle part was a little dull, especially when I got confused that you had to light the hallway candles, but other than that the game was amazing. Well done!

Great job on this game! The story was amazing, had me hooked! The art was also very good and the puzzles were simple but nice. Overall, great game!

Very well done! The story and art were amazing! I really liked the character designs, and the plot was very interesting. Overall, great job on this game!
