How does the game fit the theme?
It uses signs to guide the player that may lead them closer to escaping or leading them to a trap.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
My good friend made the soundtrack for me. Used https://pixabay.com/sound-effects/search/game/ and https://mixkit.co/free-sound-effects/game/ for a few sound effects. Used unity's first person starter assets. Used SimpleFX from unity's asset store and used some mixamo animations. Everything else was made from scratch by me

the visuals and audio were really good. I got caught off guard by multiple jumpscares.

The game was very fun to play. I wasnt able to make it to the end since I had to leave.

overall a fun experience.

This game was loads of fun. I figured out who to trust eventually. It should be fairly obvious considering it's one of the first things you read after launching the game.

I wasn't able to beat it though. I typed in the code and eventually made it to the sign that says to jump on the platform but literally couldn't find aforementioned platform anywhere. Couldn't progress past that.

Actually, the last right turn is the left. The right turn goes to the "Jump on the platform" part which actually fills the floor with poison acid that damages you over time. It's little twist that the last turn is actually left :)
Right after that is the last puzzle with the levers and you are home free!

Thanks so much for playing!

Cool and tense game! I died teh first time following the sign and started going right every time. I would love to finish the game but sadly my computer crashed on the 3 turn right. For what I could see, the enviroment is pretty cool and gives a cool inmersive experience, and the idea seem cool. Very good job to be able to do something like this for a jam! :)

Developer

Thank you so much for the kind words! I am sorry the game crashed, my friend who I showed this game first to, also said that it sometimes crashes... Didn't have time to play test it properly, but I hope it's fine for the jam.

First of all, the maze looks absolutely gorgeous!! I really love how you used the assets, the torches are incredibly well designed, and the UI and text all look beautiful too!

And I have to admit, this is probably the scariest jumpscare game I've played in this game jam so far. The first time I died, I screamed so loudly that even my dog jumped up to check on me XD

After the second time, whenever I saw a sign telling me to go left, I only went right instead... I thought maybe you were playing some kind of word trick on me XD Then, just when I thought I was finally about to reach the end, I saw the angry sign and went, "OH NO, RUN!! THERE'S ANOTHER WAY!!" ...and got the bad ending still.

I don't think I can handle a third attempt. My heart is already beating way too fast TT

Really great game!! But I need to go drink some water first XD

Developer

Thank you so much for this  beautiful review :D

So glad you enjoyed the game and the atmosphere of it.

Really a nice game. I also liked the camera shake that was building tension. Great work! Keep building!

Developer

Thanks so much! Yeah, the main focus of the game was atmosphere and the tension and the camera shake was one of the stuff used for it

Great dungeon design with fantastic environmental art. I haven't found the right exit yet, and I got totally trolled by that 'turn right' four times :D

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it!

The best thing about this game is obviously the music, what a great soundtrack! It had me nervous all the time

Developer

Was made by my great friend. He makes amazing soundtracks and music.

Nice project, this aesthetic could be something new! Starting from the main menu was beautiful, a bit confusing since i was trying to use the mouse instead of the keyboard, when i started the sensitivity was too low, the atmosphere was beautiful with nice sound but the way you implemented the theme was really predictable and forced. That is my honest feedback

Developer

Thanks for your honest feedback. I agree about the mouse thing, I kinda missed with that. I didn't have a lot of time to develop the game because of some life stuff, but glad I finished almost everything I envisioned.  I wish I implemented settings to change the sound, mouse sensitivity and brightness, but that may come in a different version.

Very creepy game, and I like that! You have to be focused all the time and that makes it soo interesting. I died like a million times, but I will continue to play until I escape :) Great job for the creator!

Developer

Thank you! I am really satisfied how the atmosphere turned out.

Submitted(+1)

The visuals are cool. But I couldn't find the sound settings. It fits the theme. Great job!

Developer

Because of some life stuff, I only made this game in like 3-4 days so I finished it basically last second and forgot to add the sound settings or any settings actually... :(
But thank you for the kind words :D

This is really cool, I love the visuals and the music is great

I managed to escape :) I think I explored most of it as well. I particularly liked the puzzle where you get locked in and need to rotate the torches 

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! And congratulations on escaping :D
