Very literal interpretation with some nice spaces.  GJ.

Great atmosphere and one of the better feeling 3D camera controls/movement I've seen in the jam so far. Wonderful, surreal level design as well! I enjoyed not quite knowing what would show up next, and you played around nicely with perspective and size. 

I got stuck at first in the room after you exit the first area. Didn't realise that walking around the pillar in the middle would give me a new opening to go through when I looked back. But it was a cool effect once I figured it out, so I wouldn't ditch it. 

A little more interaction/gameplay beyond walking would've been the cherry on top, but I really love what you put together here. A very well-crafted experience!

Terrific environments, you really hit the mark on the theme, also love how smooth controls are :)

Cool and effective concept.
The strange universe fits the theme really well, and the gameplay works with it.

Well done!
Feel free to check out our game too.

Really like the movement and the atmosphere. This could be expanded into some sort of horror game as well. Very good game!

I sure do love pixelated 3D games! The place was indeed very strange and mysterious though I wish there was something to interact with. Good work!

Wow, the atmosphere is extremely well done!

The controls were also pretty smooth,  I didnt felt any of that typical game jam “clunkiness"


Did I "finish" the game by finding the bed?

Developer

Thanks! That is the finish.

I really like the DA and visuals, the atmosphere is really great. I like games that blow your mind and it's very impressive to do that alone. Good job man !

I love the visuals, everything felt very strange.  Exploring through the world was like going through a surreal dreamscape. I loved how it took me out of this world and completely immersed me into the world of Shiver!

Holy moly that was a fever dream and in the best way possible. The vibes of this game are immaculate! Great job!

Bro absolutely love the vibe of this game! At first it felt like I was climbing an oblivion tower from elder scrolls, then I felt like I was in quake, then i felt like I was in fever dream. My style of game! Loved it.


Also love the touch of head bob when you walk, so many people dont add that and its really noticable when its there. So nice. Also loved the little mirror that you walk into and become small.

Great atmosphere! Think you nailed the theme.

Love exploring in this kind of art style amazing! 
but I was stuck on one big room with no way out I wonder if that was intentional or puzzle?

Developer

Thanks! There is a drain in the floor that has a hole in it, I should have made it a bit more obvious with a light or something, it was pretty close to the ending anyways so not too much missed.

Love the environment design, the pixelated style and portal effects are really neat too. The ambience is also super creepy and atmopheric, nice work!

Submitted(+1)

Wow! Unfortunately first person games make me have motion sickness, so I didn't spend too long with this, but I won't hold that against you in the rating. This has SUPERB atmosphere (especially for a game jam entry). This is definitely the strangest place in a jam of strange places.

Love the visuals.  I do wish there was more gameplay to it, but overall good game.

Submitted(+1)

Your game looks amazing! The floaty jump was a tad frustrating, but over all great game!

Submitted(+1)

strange vibes indeed

Super strange setting, loved the visual choices! Nice level of difficulty navigating the maze, I made it to the bed.
