The game was quite polished and the worlds are really interesting.
Didn 't quite understand at first what the lines meant but then was able to make the shapes. The heart one was quite stressful because I didn't understand at first the bulbs but also finished it. It would be great to know when you've faild or when you've saved the embrio.
The art is good but didn't understand the utility of the search book.
About the crucifix world, it's just not finished.
Overall really cool game and would love a more structured story & gameplay
Hi there and thank you for playing our game! We're glad you enjoyed it and we're working in the bugs right now. Be sure to check it out when the issues have been solved!
I like the style of this, but I can't quite understand what to do. I guessed few shapes myself and got into pretty strange places but still don't know what to do there. This looks very cool but feels kinda not completed, so I hope you finish this and notify me if I missed something. Overall, nice entry :)
Thank you so much for playing CEPHEUS. Our programming team is slowly fixing the bugs. Once we put out the refined version make sure to check it out!
That was interesting, I liked the concept. Not sure exactly what I needed to do, or if things were just not complete, but the computer told me to help it and nothing happened, the angels told me which door to pick only once out of five, and the heart mini-game seemed impossible to complete? I'm not exactly sure what I was meant to do other than click the walls.
Overall a pretty interesting concept, but it feels incomplete, though I understand that's often how jams go
Thank you for playing our game! We hope to patch out the issues. Make sure to check it out when we roll out the patches!
such a cool concept and visuals but i couldn't connect the stars, maybe a small tutorial in the description will be good! i saw in one of the comments that yall are working on the issues so im looking foward to it :D!
This was a really cool game. I had fun connecting the dots too. I did get a tad bit confused at some places(skill issue) but overall it was peak
Thank you for playing! We're so glad you had fun 🌌
The art and the music are really really good!
But the game itself is quite confusing to play, I tought at first that it was broken and I was supose to be given coordinates lol, connecting the dots in the cosmos was quite a cool mechanic.
I am not sure what the book is for either.
The second part, with the embryo is really cool visually but I could not beat the minigame which just seemed way too hard and tedious :/
Great potentional, just needs more clarity !
Thank you so much for playing! We're currently working on fixing the bugs and issues. Please be sure to check it out again in a few days for the updated version!
I really liked the art in this game and have to say the cover art is gorgeous, so beautiful!!
I played the first section I believe. I had some problems understanding what to do and got stuck a long time with connecting the stars. I think given the player feedback what to do and when he is not doing the thing intended even if textboxes could help a lot.
And I am not sure if this was intended like this just wanted to let you know:
The story and atmosphere are really great. Hope I could help :)
hey! thank you for your time playing and the feedback!! we agree the instructions we've given the player are quite vague, so we'll work on changing that soon! and yes the laptop being uninteractable is intentional 🙂↕️
I am looking forward to that! With the laptop i meant the keys being so big and stretched.
I'd love to play, but it's only windows available(
We hope you can give it a go when you get the chance!
hey there! we're sorry for the lack of build options, we'll be building for other platforms very soon! once that happens we'll let you know 🙂↕️
Insane visuals man, really really good!
Thank you so much for playing!
thank you for your kind words! we had great artists indeed 🙂↕️
Very coolio! Love the game and aesthetics! Check out our game too!
thank you so much! we absolutely will 🙂↕️
I got stuck in the first room, it wasn't exactly clear what I needed to do to progress. I connected all the stars together, and then tried looking up heart, cross, chip in the book but not sure what I was supposed to do about the information with the sun. It's unfortunate because the game looked great from the screenshots, and also the intro room looks nice, I think the shine effect in the telescope is super dope. Maybe add a guide somewhere in the game's page for people that get stuck? Would definitely like to experience it fully
hey! thank you for playing the game :D unfortunately we noticed that this was the case after building shortly before the deadline. we've compiled a list of bugs, such as constellations showing up when they aren't supposed to, SFX not playing, etc. thank you for your time though and we hope you could play again after we push bug fixes within the 48 hour window!
Also the music stops abruptly when I open the book, it's a bit jarring, I would try to fix that as well if it's not on the list. Best of luck!
thank you for letting us know!
