This game was very smart, i had to re-read a lot to get the puzzles but it was worth it! :)
Amazing. Now, it took me a good minute to figure out how to play, seeing as I didn't use the hints. Eventually, I found out! I started to read the code- I understood it. I knew what to do next. I finally sacrificed the disk and made my way to the large room with the two distant doors and found new arrows. I followed them, and it was time- the this was the way to break the loop- this is what the code stated- I was going back to the previous iterations. Eventually, I had made it. The system break. I sharp ending, but it made sense. I wish there was more to the ending, as I put good time for this. However, it was still enjoyable to figure out the puzzle.
I really enjoyed the game; despite the fact I accidently dropped my item multiple times instead of opening the door and then opened the door to find I didn't have my item... and the fact that the art was pretty simple... and the fact that the music was also pretty simple. I thought the puzzle was pretty smart, and I loved how all the answers were in the code- you just had to take a second to read and understand what it all meant.
Great work. I wish you luck <3.
Thank you very much, I appreciate the detailed feedback.
I will definitely keep in mind for my future projects. :)
I also wish I had more time for improving the puzzles and bug fixes.
Took me a while to figure out the puzzle without hints, also those guys that start to follow you after some time gave me chilly uncanny feeling, nice game overall.
Thank you, appreciate the feedback :). It’s my first try on developing a puzzle game.
I was running for my life when the timer ran out ;;; Nice take on loop as a while loop!
Ahah great to hear, Thank you!
