The idea is there, and the plot together with the final twist is very nice. But it seems the looping idea has nothing to do with the gameplay. Each time you given different options, the only options to progress the game, so eventually the story is told completely linearly. If instead you gave the player all options at once (all objects, all interactables) and made the outcome different depending on what player does, it would become a proper puzzle with main focus on loop mechanic.
Despite that, the game feels nice, it succeds to tell the story, creates cool atmosphere and it looks very nice. Good job!
This was fun. Enjoyed the twist at the end. Well done!
Really short but really great! The concept was awesome and the loop is really unexpected!
Great job!
Lovely story, looks like a lot of effort was put in the world building great stuff!
Nice plot in the end, i would like it to have more options or be a little longer, but was enjoyable and clever!
Great story (КИШ inspired I guess, ha?)
Love clean usage of items and sfx.
Now will wait for sequel about "man jumping from cliff" ))
Thank you! Rrright, it was inspired by them =) I think potentially there are a loooot of stories from their songs that can be turned into videogames))
Very promising story. And atmosphere is quite oppressing.
I wish it was longer which shows how much potential it has.
Well done
Very dark idea!Nice work
I would love your rating to my game!
WOW this game is really fun and well done, and it's 3d!
Wow, your game had me constantly looking over my shoulder!
Cool concept and the graphics look super nice!
Please rate my game! Thanks!
It's an interesting concept with a lot of potential, but it requires a bit of polishing here and there. Overral I really enjoyed the concept of being stuck in the time loop, and the atmosphere of the game was fine. Keep up the good work!
Very polished game, and it had a really eerie feel. the plot twist was cool! :)
This was really creative and well executed, normally storybased games in jams end up buggy or slow but this one was pretty neat
Damn, kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time! I'd really appreciate if you checked out my game too! It's called "Kill, Clear, Repeat" and it's a fps rogue-lite if you're interested. Keep up the great work!
Very interesting game! I appreciate that the puzzles were straightforward and intuitive compared to other adventure games (e.g. use the pear to open a door) and I enjoyed the ending. I also like how nothing was time-based as the camera can be dizzying at times. Great job on the entry!
Woah that was so sick! I almost bailed out after the first loop but I'm so glad I didn't because the story was really cool. I love all the sound effects and cutscenes, they really immerse you in it. I haven't played an entry like this yet, its super original! Great work, thank you for making it :)
