Great job!!
I really enjoyed art style and the story!
The only issue I noticed was that the main character rarely got stuck in the ground in Area 3.
I wish there had been some kind of restart button available.
Overall, though, I had a great experience!
Noted. Thanks a lot for the feedback!
Very awesome story telling components, really good stuff man
Thanks for playing!
Incredible art! great job :)
Thank you! :)
the art and atmosphere is 11/10 !
Love this sooo much
Thank you!
I really like the art, animations and music. The controls were simple.
I played through the whole game without using the 'press S+Space-bar' control. Maybe add something to the game which would require the player to use that.
Overall, a fun game with a good horror atmosphere, it fits the theme nicely.
Thanks a lot for playing and for taking the time to share your feedback!
I love the art so much omg and ellies kind of reminds me of shida kohaku's take on sumino from gozyuger???? idk if you know that but ellies looks amazing!
Thanks a lot for playing! Really glad you liked the art :)
Wow, a single person did this!
Now I have to go back to most games I rated and bring their visuals note down because I can't give this game 6.
Very reminiscent of Limbo, although it's pixel art and much more challenging in terms of timing/dexterity. Which, tragically, I lack, I'm stuck at level 5 :'(
Really appreciate the feedback and the kind words! Level 5 is pretty much the last level, I'll make sure to revisit the puzzle and hazards and adjust them later.
I don’t know how else to say this, so I will do it in the most straightforward way possible: I would absolutely play a FULL VERSION of this game. The story really got me hooked, the atmosphere was well designed, and the environmental art was just beautiful. It also reminded of a short story I wrote once, so maybe that’s why it resonated with me so much. Thank you for trying out my game!
I really appreciate the kind words, and thank you for taking the time to try my game!
I like the cute character and the style! The whole dark lighting is cool and spooky :D Great game!!
Thank you very much! :)
The character is so cute! i loved it! I also loved the sounds in this game ant the elevator reminds me of our game :) good job :D
Thank you! :)
Awesome art style and atmosphere of the game! It was fun to play - and I especially like how you implemented jump:)
Thanks for playing! :)
The art style is really cool and atmospheric, the style reminded me of LIMBO. I love how the visual progression in each level subtly tells a story and leaves room for interpretation. Really nicely done!
Thank you very much!
Oh, I know this music asset, it's a cool game! I like the visual aspect and the way the sounds are arranged in the game! Great job :)
Thank you for playing! :)
Absolutely lovely game! The art is phenomenal, everything feels so polished from atmosphere, animation, sprites, environment, sound design. Might just be the best game Ive played in this jam so far :D
Thank you very much! :)
I loved this game, no less. The atmosphere, visuals, animations, sound effects all are top notch.
Nothing to critique here, this is easily one of the best games from this jam that I played so far!
Thanks for playing and for the kind words! I really appreciate it.
Spooky game! I really liked the atmosphere you built, and the visuals complement it very well. Nice work!
Thanks for playing!
The dark atmosphere is fantastic.
The environments feel detailed and polished, and the sound design really enhances everything.
I especially liked the environmental storytelling little details and the fallen Ellies bodies make the world feel alive (and grim).
Awesome job!
I’d love to hear your thoughts on our game as well if you get the chance.
Thanks for playing! Checked out your game, it's very fun!
very nice visuals!!
Thank you!
It's an amazing game, especially considering it was made in only one week! I really love the creepy atmosphere, and the art style looks fantastic. The puzzles are well designed and the death system is really clever.
Good job, you should be proud ! :)
Thanks a lot for the kind words! :)
Great experience! The pixel art is gorgeous, and I really like the way that the gameplay and environments tell a story without any words. My only critique is that the ending is a bit anticlimactic. It feels like the game is building towards something big, and simply showing the credits after entering the final door was a tad disappointing. Still, that's only because I was invested in the game and wanted to see more :)
Thanks for the feedback! Really glad you liked it. I'm actually still thinking about the ending :D
