This game is so amazing :D. I love the concept of finding buttons to play games a lot. The art and music is awesome too. I'm impressed you guys did this in one week!

This is definitely the BEST one I've played on this jam so far. The graphics (both 2D and 3D) are AWESOME, though 3D seems to be unoptimized and 2D with glitching screen makes my eyes hurt a bit after a while. Also, as somebody had mentioned already, the hints appear way too soon - you can unlock most cheat codes before even starting the game. Other than that, it's 5/5 on every rating.

Hey, thanks so much for your kind words!

You're right, the hints do appear quite early. We did that to make the game as accessible as possible (and even then, some players still ended up stuck without knowing what to do) ^^'
It’s our first puzzle game, we’ll aim for better balance (and maybe with accessibility options) next time around.

Wow, this is such an incredibly well made game for a jam submission! one small nitpick i have over the game is that it felt a bit too hand holdy I like figuring things out on my own but the game sometimes feels like it gives clues too quickly (and half the time it gives clues to a puzzle i already figured out) one specific example is the barrel puzzle i would've preffered if the player had to connect the dots between the phrases "to become" and "a barrel" to get the cheatcode instead of just being given to the player. but still a very impressive game made in just a week.

Developer

Thank's a lot for this comment! We will learn better for the next puzzle game and take this into account! We was more afraid of player being stuck and we did too much haha

Please, release a desktop version. It seems to be amazing but it's lagging a lot in web version

Developer(+1)

After asking in the discord we uploaded a Windows version with no modification! You will need to AltF4 to exit the game but I hope it will run better than webgl!

This is a really great game. Both the 3D and 2D environment are nice to look at. The puzzles are great for both. I have no notes just wanted to say great job

Developer

Thank's very kind!
