I couldn't figure out how to clean the dust.

Fire atmosphere and art style tho!

If you tell me how to clean up the dust I'll try again. I could not find a duster and when I went to the dust I could not clean it no matter what button I pressed.

Also I would really appreciate it if you could give me some feedback on my game too :)

Developer

i should have added in game hints. the only interaction input is the scroll wheel. you should scroll up and down while looking at them. also, you should interact with the door after you finish cleaning to get to next day. and you should interact with the toilet to flush it.

Really unique art style, ATMOSPHERE IS FIRE BECAUSE OF THE ART STYLE... nice

Tho i didnt get scared at all... really good game!!!

But  as Colby-O said, even i wasnt able to finish the game... so yea

Also i would strongly recommend to provide a zip file for future games, its much easier!

Could you be able to rate my game to pleasee? id really appreciate it :)

Developer

youre right, i really spent more time on visuals instead of the scare factor. i wanted something uncanny that stayed in players mind after player finished the game, instead of classic horror mechanics. tho this game jam was a great opportunity for me to test specific mechanics, animations, and learn time and project management for my main game. rn, im dealing with university stuff, but ill try to finish this project and check out every game in this jam when i get free moment.

The game has a very unique art style, very surreal. The mix of 2D and 3D assets worked really well.

It took me a bit to figure out that I had to use the mouse wheel to interact. Some kind of in game hint for this would be helpful.

I don’t think I was able to finish it, though. I cleaned all the stains, but nothing happened afterward. I could hear the moaning in the back room, but I wasn’t able to interact with anything there. I restarted the game and tried again in case it was a bug, but I still couldn’t figure out how to progress.

Great work! From what I could play it seems like an interesting concept.

Edit: I also forgot to mention it might have been more user friendly to upload a ZIP instead of the .exe and .pck files separately.

Developer

sorry about the confusion with the controls, i definitely should have added a hint for the mouse wheel interaction. also, after cleaning the stains, you need to interact with the front door to get to day 2 and 3. and ill make sure to provide a .zip file for future versions.

I love the strange artstyle, and the concept! 5/5 on atmosphere, not that scary tho

i thought everyone would make a classic horror game, so i wanted to create a psychological horror game. my time management was really bad, so i couldnt finish the end sequance where police arrests us
