This is definitely an interesting take on the theme. And a very ambitious project. But you did really good! Did you do all this 3D modeling in 4 days? That's insane skill lol But it payed off, I really enjoyed the game. Nice entry!

Also I'd appreciate feedback on my submission if you get a chance!

Interesting concept by itself, but the theme is quite weak here

Unfortunately, I didn’t get past the padlock, because it wasn’t clear enough to me where to look for the code. I really enjoyed the setting and the vibes in general, great work!

Glad to hear you enjoyed the setting and vibes and really appreciate the feedback on the connection to the theme and pad code, we definitely want to spend more time making padlock puzzle pieces clearer if we do more development on this. Thanks again for your comment and checking out our game!

Very well done! The atmosphere is great and the puzzles are fun to play, too.
Only thing I'd maybe change is the head bobbing/vibration of the train, it made it hard to pick up the circuit bits sometimes.
All in all, awesome work! 👍👍👍
Stay funky,
Dez

Thank you so much I'm so glad you liked the atmosphere and puzzles and thanks for the feedback on the shaking, this is super helpful!

400 MB download for a game jam entry is kinda wild, but once I got in, I saw where all that space went! The visuals are amazing. I’d love to know how you created this style, seriously impressive work. The models, the lighting, the overall mood… it all felt super polished and professional. The voice acting was also top-notch and really helped sell the atmosphere.

The puzzles worked well, I made it through about four wagons before I got hit with a message I didn’t quite understand, and then the game ended. 😅 Not sure if that was intended or I missed something, but hey, the ride was fun while it lasted. At least I got two different endings (but not the winning one. Eh.

The screen shake was a bit much for me at times. A restart button and subtitles would’ve been nice to have. Just little things.

All in all, this was a crazy good experience. I recorded my playthroughs and I’ll upload the video once there’s more time. Game is definitely worth checking out!

Thank you so so much for all your kind words! We had two artists on our team (it's me hi the programmer typing this so imma brag about them even though I know they'll get all humble and stuff when they see this lol) and they are super talented and spent a ton of time on the VFX and models, I am so impressed with what they did, very happy and lucky to be their teammate.

Thank you so much for saying it feels professional that's the highest compliment!

Thanks we all added some voice lines in which was a lot of fun!

Thanks so much for the feedback we definitely have some work on some of our puzzles/death mechanics. We will definitely make that stuff clearer if we do more on this game!

Good to know for screenshake too we definitely need to dial that down!

Oooo good call on subtitles, didn't even think of that one, thanks for the suggestion and we will definitely add a restart button!

Thank you so so much, we'd love to watch your playthrough when it's live! Thanks again for playing our game and your super wonderful comments <3!

This game is really high quality! Good sound effects, I like the red lights mechanic. The overall electrical circuit loop minigame thing was fun aswell and voice acting? This was so cool. Loved the game

Really liked this one . the mood stood out and made it memorable. Pacing was tight and the vibe worked really well. I just finished my own entry too 'Death by Marriage' — it’s a short narrative mystery if you’re browsing around. Would love to hear what you think!

Developer

Thanks so much so glad to hear you liked the mood we're happy with how it came out!! Really appreciate you checking out our game, we'll definitely check out yours too!
