Very cool concept. The sounds and art creates a spooky and mysterious atmosphere that I like a lot. The gameplay is good, the controls aren't perfect but they work just fine. The doppelganger mechanic feels a bit underused, for most of the game I thought it was just showing me the way, and only noticed that I should try to race it when I was constantly respawning at the second checkpoint and realized that the doppelganger is what causes way to close off. Overall it fun with very good vibes. Well done!

Thank you so much for playing and the feedback!

Yes, we kinda messed up the doppelganger mechanic because we focused too much on other stuff, but i guess it was still enjoyable :D

I like the wall jumping a lot! The art looks really good as well! Vibe is on point.

I got quite far, really enjoyed it, but some how managed to restart the game....how much more is there after that long slope?

Developer

That's about 3/4 of the map. You got very far! I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

Scary, platforming is fun and I liked that the holograms showed me how to do certain things. Now, I'm about to be kinda harsh and you might hate me for it. It was difficult to tell where the obstacles were, they kinda blended into the environment and I felt that the falling speed was a bit unforgiving. I loved the atmosphere and vibe of this game,haha the holograms scared me at first, I thought they were the doppelganger.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! The hologram actually IS your doppelganger :D

And no, I wouldnt hate you dw<3
It was on purpose that they blended in! It's not supposed to be an easy game, and youre supposed to be a bit paranoid about where traps may be, but we (tried to) made sure its always visible through the yellow colour!

Thank you for playing!

Y'all nailed the spookiness! The game felt so eerie!
Don't know if it's just me but this almost felt like a Kaizo game haha. Good work y'all!

Thank you for playing!

I got stuck under a door. is there a button to reset to last check point? becuase i want to try again and it will be good to know.

Developer

Yes, when you press E/Esc it opens the Pause Menu and from there you can respawn :D

Developer
