How does your game fit the theme?
The gameplay is a loop in time, and you must navigate the loop to solve the mystery. The music loops dynamically according to the in-game clock.

The artstyle is insane! I had fun playing, although I didn't understand what exactly should I do at times xD. I feel like you could add some clues later, I'd love to play it then
Once the voting is over, we'll push an update that fixes all kinds of stuff people brought up.
This version had to be rough given the limited time, but we'll try to flesh out this game to a proper game when we have the time. Our artist was so inspired, so we will not let this go to waste 👍
Thanks for playing our game!
It's such a mysterious game, beautiful artwork and even though I'm not into puzzle games, yours got me hooked haha well done !
You built this from scratch?! Damn, that's seriously impressive.
Three.js helps a lot by providing a set of tools and math helpers, but we had fun building something bespoke once we narrowed down the core concept! We'll link the git repo in the Itch.io page.
I respect the dedication. By the way, if you get the chance, I'd appreciate if you'd check out our game as well.
Wow this is so eye catching! I love the aesthetics of this.
As a web developer by trade, I applaud your accomplishment in making your game’s engine from TypeScript and Three.js. The art is also lovely, the hub floor reminds me of the Sora’s dreams in Kingdom Hearts!
Absolutely wonderful artwork and aesthetic. In general loved the concept. If you'd like to continue with the project, maybe give the player a better sense of what they are meant to achieve and some feedback on how they are doing. I finished the game opening like only 6 or 7 doors. I had fun figuring things out, but never knew if what I'm doing is correct, am I achieving something, did I break something in the game? Still you should be very proud of yourselves, this is really impressive and fun.
We are working on a post-gamejam update that improves the path and clues a bit yeah. The fact is that they keys dont open stuff for now, they only give the final clue, so it's really misleading, sorry
Thanks for trying it out!
"We created a basic game engine from scratch in TypeScript" Ummmmm I'm so .. intemedated rn
I love the mix with 3D graphics and 2D artwork! I also enjoyed the audio. I think this experience begs for first person controls in my opinion, as to move inside freely in the experience. I wasn't able to enter the room at 12 o'clock for some reason, I clicked everywhere but it didn't work. If you add an "FPS" perspective this would be a great submission, right now is difficult to navigate. There's potential with better controls.
In this version the 12th door is always open so maybe you had a bug when opening the doors.
We'll try to add FPS controls, it just wasn't realistic given the time so I went with the basic Orbit Camera
I likeda lot the artstyle !
It was kinda difficult to interact with the dors (sometimes I zoomed on doors that werent the one I clicked on), and even if trial and error is not something that bother me, I didn't manage to grasp how I made progress, and how the things I've done had effects on the world
With more feedback, I think this game can be a great escape game because I like a lot the setting ! Good job !
Great arts! But very uncomfortable control :(
Great artwork, its very stunning! The game was a little confusing and I couldn't figure out exactly what I had to do after flipping a lever but such is the nature of puzzle/escape games lol. Awesome work, I'll give it another try after you update the game!
This was an amazing experience through and through
Visuals are definitely the strongest part of the experience
F to the multiple eyed cat
wow these visuals are incredible, really love what my eyes see
