Congratulations on your first game. Great atmosphere but sadly I couldn't progress because the game won't let me interact with the bolt cutter.

Thank you for playing and pointing out the bug! Unfortunately we cannot fix it at this time due to the bug fixing portion of the Game Jam having ended, but have posted a workaround in the games description, atleast until the Jam is done and we can properly patch it! We're glad the atmosphere is at least giving it good potential while we finish polishing it.

fantastic job on a first published game! although a bug prevented me from picking up the bolt cutters to advance the story, i already envisioned where it was heading — i know that, once everything is ironed out, it'll turn out to be a beautiful short experience!

I like the pixel art, and the overall atmosphere of the game is really nice! I hit a bug that stopped me from progressing midway through but the parts I saw come together well.
