Being colourblind was rough for this one, lots of the books were pretty difficult to read. Wish the books were alphabetically sorted or something along those lines. Finding the books with seemingly no sorting method was quite difficult.

Overall, especially after reading the devlog, this is pretty impressive for a solo one week project

Cool game! Though i admit finding books was quite hard (thankfully there was a yellow highlight). I liked the tension through out the game. Good work!

Developer

Had such a great time playing LIVE with you in the stream. Thank again for sending and build I could run locally, run super smooth, and had no hiccups with the rendering! Great job on this game, stoked for more of your games and ideas!

First of all there seem to be a bug when toggling the fullscreen button.
The screen becomes gray, clicking on the gray seems to solve the problem.
Minor problem, but good to know.

The idea is interesting but I found it quite hard to find the books even with the highlight.
There doesn't seem to be a way to drop a book once you picked it up. That was kinda frustrating,

The atmosphere is nice and fits the theme, but the book page sound was a bit too much for me, it is playing over and over again even if I do not move.

I think with a bit more work and features it could become a really nice game.

Good job and good luck!

Do you know what Browser I should use to play this? Microsoft Edge and Chrome don't seem to work for me. I get a gray screen on startup but idk if that's just me.

Okay that was odd it runs on Microsoft edge now idk what happened lol

You may need to wait a bit longer because the load time depends on your internet speed.

Was starting to get paranoid from all background sounds haha. The books changing their covers is an interesting mechanic. Didn't find all the books but it was overall pretty cool.

So many books! I love libraries. At first I was looking for the first book for a long time, trying to read all the titles in the section... Then I realized that the right books were highlighted and everything went much better... Until I grabbed the first highlighted book ))

Good game!

Really creepy atmosphere and vibes. I'm only sad I wasn't able to finish it-- its just way too hard to find the books. I ended up resorting to just clicking randomly, without that I don't know if I would've found any of them.

Played it again and it seems like the book finding was fixed so its a lot easier to play now. Really spooky, especially the creepy noises. If you ever continue this adding some visual scares like a book falling would scare the hell out of me. I thought I got all the books correctly but keep getting the bad ending for some reason

Thanks for playing it again. Appreciate your feedback. I will definitely take these into consideration and update the game straight after jam.
