Weirdcore Webcore Dreamcore vibe! I really like this "neohorror", feels like i'm walking on the sunshine!

Submitted

Excellent game! I loved the atmosphere and the concept.

Submitted

This is my second favourite so far (behind Pisces). The controls feel super smooth (I played with a gamepad), and the vibe is really like being in a surrealist painting. The physics were also very cool, especially the updraft.

Submitted

i loved the surrealism in the aesthetics in ur game! fits the theme extremely well- the environments reminded me a lot of ena dream bbq, though i much prefer the simplicity in this game. the trampoline was a fun element, well done!!

Submitted

Really cool and perfectly strange.  I loved the play bait texts and activities, details like the trampoline were fun. 

Submitted

great game! i like the style

Submitted

Had it more heavy controls it would go straight into Another World spiritual successors. The best ones even. I would give the full game 12/10 if you’d give it this kind of a direction.

Overall : VERY novel, and very saucy. I really liked it.

Submitted

I like the retro, surrealism look of the graphics and the style, really has the vibe. It almost spooked me out when there's another guy following me as well lol. I also like various environments, the controls and gameplay are smooth. Great work on the game!

Submitted

very chill and vibey place! i could stay here and just spend a good afternoon. i liked the colors, the level design, puzzles. Everything seems like a well rounded game. and i also have a huge obsession with dream-like games and psychedelic experiences in games. 10/10 game πŸ”₯

Submitted

I love the art style and the mechanic! This is really unique and cool! I found the door rather quickly by accident, but I still stayed to explore for longer. The trampoline is my favourite xD

Submitted

Wow that monster scared the crap out of me at first xd. I spent so much time trying out all different things but i couldn't find the "right" door unfortunately :( Still i love the art direction and overall vibe of the game!

Thank you a lot πŸ™ did you see the trampoline at the end of the map ? πŸ˜‰ or the signal to bring the Β« monster Β» ? 

Submitted

Yes to both, unfortunately couldnt find the final step it seems :(

Developer(+1)

so you were just next to it !!!!

Submitted

Ahh, I went back and found it almost right away. On my first playthrough the layout was different and im pretty sure there was no exit door on the chair... Anyways, the second level was also cool, thanks for the game!

Submitted

It was a lot of fun. I liked it. I tried to run away from the other guy the whole game. Turns out he was harmless?

I couldn't find the right door, I tried every door I saw. I wouldn't say no to a few hints :)

Congratulations!

Developer

hey thank you a lot πŸ™πŸ™ hint : you have to bring that guy to a place signalized in the game πŸ˜‰

Submitted

Nice, definitely call that a surreal place. Almost thought it was a horror game when I started getting chased.

Submitted

Very classy art direction that stands out at first sight. Top sound design.
I wish I could run or cover more ground quicker, the exploration part is a little too long for my taste.
Well done !

Developer

thank you a lot πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

Submitted

This sure is a strange place!  It kinda hurt my eyes at first with the saturated colors 'XD.  The controls felt pretty good.  The gameplay left me a little confused.  I had a hard time figuring out which doors were the "right" ones.  I felt like I was trying them at random. I don't think I made it passed level 1.  Good job!

Submitted

Really beautiful to look at, the scenery and atmosphere are very captivating and make you want to see more.

Nice game. The atmosphere feels really strange. I didn’t find all the doors, but I managed to complete the game and had a really great time. Nice job!

However, I couldn’t play with a controller because the camera wouldn’t turn to the right with it.

Developer

hey thank you a lot πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ» I fixed the bug thanks to your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

The visuals are amazing but I wasn't sure if I just had to explore or if there was something I had to do specificly.

Developer

hey thank you πŸ™πŸ» you only have to escape, the rest are optional surprises, as there are different ways of finding the right door

Submitted(+1)

I'm not sure if I can call it a game in its current state, but the visuals and the atmosphere are top tier in my opinion. It'd be nice to see a full game with such artstyle.

Developer

thank you for your feedback πŸ™πŸ» maybe it's because I chose a radically open design for the worlds?

Submitted

Maybe. It feels more like a test dev room right now where you experiment with all the mechanics. At least the test rooms I've seen were simmilar to it...

I see. It was purposely design like this to look like a surreal painting where things are often put on the floor randomly to create a strange feeling, very different from linear game. Thank you for your feedback πŸ™πŸ»
