I really liked the vibe of the cell, the atmosphere is very consistent. It’s a bit tricky to navigate at times, but the concept is great.

This was very cool. I love the first person take on a Point and Click Adventure! It holds together really well, the puzzles were reasonable to use logic to solve, and the atmosphere is very consistent. Great work!

My only suggestions are sound related: I would love for the music to smoothly loop, and some sound effects on the UI would help with knowing that a button has been clicked.

Very useful advice! We sort of left all of the sound design to the last minute and I guess it kind of showed. So glad you enjoyed the puzzle mechanics though, and thanks for leaving the advice. Will definitely allocate more time to sound design in the future.

To be fair, saving sound design for last makes a lot of sense. When I work on post-jam updates I intend to add more feedback to my UI elements as well!

The game looks cool but... I couldn't even get past the first interaction, like, no matter how many times I press to interact, nothing really happens, which is sad because I really wanted to review your game :/

Anyway, from the screenshots it looks like a cool game.

Thanks for the feedback, in hindsight we should have made the first puzzle a bit clearer to solve. I did attach a walkthrough in the game description but you have to remove a loose rock from the wall to get the items to escape the cell you start in. Never occurred to us that it may be a bit too hard to initially find leading to your experience. As with any game, having some more blind playtesting would help prevent this issue. Either way, thank you for taking the time and for your feedback.

This game looks amazing but is a bit difficult to play!
I haven't made it past the boilar stage, looking at the screenshots there seems to be more content that I missed. 
I filled the boilar with water around 3 times, but it said it needed more water, even though the tank was visually full. It's a little confusing and reminds me of old school point and click games, where sometimes the solution is clicking everywhere.
Interesting concept and fun puzzle solving when you get it right!

Thanks for taking the time to play our game. As with any game jam game it would have benefited from some more time to add additional clarity to different mechanics. The boiler did only need to be filled once (hence why it looked full) but we clearly missed something so it seemed the text kept appearing leading to confusion. In hindsight maybe we should have added a objective tracker or something to keep people on the right track but you only figure this out afterwards. Either way, thank you for the review and taking the time to play the game =)
