Loved the game, loved the concept, but I am terrible at this. Wow. I could not spot the anomalies. The spooks will get me now XD
This was so fun! I'm new to anomaly games and loved this spin immediately. I did have some trouble with the flip phone but figured it out with time. Absolutely excited to see how this game will change in phase two ^_^
I think the concept is really neet i always love a blending of genres done right and i think the games nails it! i’m not to big into these types of games, my interest waynes after sometime just clicking through waiting for something to happen. But that’s not a problem with your game just the genre as a whole! overall the style really fit that dollhouse vibe and don’t think i didn’t recognize that simpsons reference lol overall i think its a really good game and with a little touch up on the anomaly categorization it will be a hit! great job :)
I really like the concept but I had a hard time finding the right anomaly. Maybe if you shorten the list it would be more enjoyable. The game is aligned with the theme of the jam and beautifully linked. I love the dollhouse art, it's cute but it's creepy, there are mysteries hidden through those walls, you can feel it and it hooks you.
Another thought: I think it would be more readable if the phone was bigger and so the controls in it. Also, missing some background tunes to keep the mystery! Overall, good game ^.^
I love this game idea and vibe so much so it pains me a little to say that it would probably benefit from having a visual tutorial for the different kind of annomalies more than the written one
Soo creepy cute! Incredible work!
Amazing entry. It's pretty fun. Some of the anomalies are hard to catalog, they're somewhat counter-intuitive. And I'd love to be able to use the mouse wheel to scroll through the phone screen, since the buttons are so small. Other than that, amazing work! See you in part 2! 😁
this is very interesting, some anomalies seem to be in the wrong categories but otherwise, im very impressed. very creepy and very fun. very awesome job.
Interesting concept! It took me a bit to figure out how to use the phone, and I failed to correctly identify any of the anomalies, even though I tried all the categories on the two I found.
I like the idea though! It could get pretty creepy, and the asset design really suggests that well. <3
Thank you so much for trying our game! Yeah, after release we noticed that some anomalies were now in the incorrect category, or if there is more than one in the same room, there is one "on top" of the other. We'll keep working on it tho! :)
Just finished the demo- I LOVED IT. As a fan of girly things, and I'm on Observation Duty, I think this is such a cool idea, especially how you connected the themes!
I agree that interaction with the phone was difficult, and sometimes the anomalies were confusing. I found something near the labels and tried every category, but none of them worked (it kept telling me I found something but miscategorized it). like, the dog moving too, I picked 'moving' but it was 'extra'. I think a little bit more clarification on the categories would help a lot!
Can't wait to play it again after the second part of the jam!
Thank you for your feedback! We are so happy to hear you liked it! Unfortunately we did notice after release that some anomalies were in different categories as intended. It's a known bug and we'll make sure to fix it before the second release! <3
Slightly concerning, but I managed to finish the demo xD Clearly it's a bit rough around the edges but still very interesting. The vibes are low-key horror, but if there was supposed to be a jumpscare or something I haven't encountered xD I admit, making the phone interactable with the buttons and everything was a cool idea, even if a bit frustrating. On one hand, it's an old phone, of course it's frustrating xD On the other, it might be better to make the phone itself bigger so it's easier to click the buttons and read the text? Also, I truly appreciated the customizable controls, they are wonderful! I had some trouble with a couple of anomalies because their appearance didn't really match the flag? Like "missing" for an extra shadow on the wall right next the window curtains in the kitchen. Will check this one out again after the second part of the jam!
Thank you so much for trying our game! We hear you guys, and we agree that the phone should be bigger. Definitely will be fixed for the final release! :)
After release, we noticed that some anomalies were now in the incorrect category, so that's why it's a bit confusing... We'll keep working on it! <3
