Yessss, these are the vibes I'm looking for. Really cool submission here, great style and ambitious take on the theme> The music and sound design are on point, paired with the really nice design and aesthetic, it definitely builds a creepy mood. The camera work for the cutscenes is really well done. When you run from the howl at the beginning, that scared the crap out of me! Really impressed with this entry!

FANTASTIC presentation! I think the shader choices were fantastic with the smearing and the glitching and the atmosphere was ON POINT. Great intro. Scariest game I've played this jam for sure.

I think I encountered some kind of bug where I got stuck inside the lab and couldn't move out of the center, like it kept warping me back over and over? I think maybe I was dead.

It was also sorta difficult to tell what my objective was even though I was told. I don't seem to have a moon seed to insert in the sampler? Do I need to go back outside to get it, how do I get back outside?

Awesome "WORDLE" idia, but the game have gamebreaking bugs. Sadly, cant finish it.

had to restart a few times before I found the right combination. I brought the cure to the launchpad, the rocket played a sound but nothing happened :(

I think the game has a great atmosphere, solid idea for the gameplay and an interesting setting around it. I really wish it was less pixelated, the shader makes it hard to navigate. Assuming there is no way to get more moon seeds, I don't think limiting the attempts was a good idea (I also had to check the comments before I realized where to find the seed).

I think the game can turn out really interesting if you're ever planning to continue developing it

The atmosphere, visuals, and art style are amazing but once you get inside the base it prompts you for a Mist Seed and prevents you from going outside to gather it so all you can do is run inside the base and try mixing the fruits.

Hello Catsby, glad you enjoyed the general vibe of the game! The mist seeds are collected from the hands of the fallen captain at spawn.

We initially planned for an interactive sequence that would prompt you to pick it up before moving on with the game. Sadly, we weren't able to implement it in the final version, leading to some confusion. 
Thank you for the feedback!

Intro and the game/art are an absolute vibe, Loved the overall look, but had a hard time navigating the base and figuring out what I was supposed to do.

Played the HTML version. Really really great atmosphere but once inside the base I could not get out to gather moon seeds. The door was locked. Didn't find anything to help.

Hey LxThree, thank you for playing Red Mist Alpha! Initially we intended to have a cutscene that would prompt the player to pick the moon seeds up after interacting with the first audio tape. Unfortunately, it did not get implemented due to several reasons. But if you're wondering where they are, you can manually pick them up in the hands of the fallen Captain at spawn.

I'll replay and re-rate it! Thanks for the tip!

The game does not seem to launch, giving an alert about a missing .pck file
