That was intense! I'm impressed by the graphics and VA!
Thanks for playing! Glad it was an effective experience.
Wooww didn't expect that , it was a really fantastic project with great atmosphere and voice acting , that was a good horror shader for the screen and the mini games too. Great Job :DD
Thank you so much!
I can tell you're a movie maker, nice job bringing that over into this escape room experience! The horror shader aesthetics was really nice, the puzzles were fun, sound design was great! Nice job on your first GWJ jam! Looking forward to seeing more of your work :)
Thank you for the kind words!
I really loved the style and atmosphere! The animation, voice acting, and overall style blend together so harmoniously that they kept me hooked until I had explored absolutely everything!!
That's awesome! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for playing!
Really cool and interersting and good atmosphere, really creepy and the voice acting is great!
Thank you!
Very polished experience and I absolutely love the aesthetics, nailed the look! The puzzle designs were fun, the narration was solid and added to the vibes, and was just a really well executed entry. Really great work!
Thanks so much!
Really good horror game. The atmosphere of the environment is perfect. Impressed by the quality of the assets. I was able to open the fuse box to try and go for the alternate ending but I didn't have any clickable elements.
All I'll say is that you need to bring a certain late-game object with you to the fuse box for the option to show up. In future versions we might tweak some of the communication around how to get each ending, but for now it's a bit trial-and-error. Thanks for playing! The atmosphere was definitely our main priority so I'm glad it worked out!
NAHHH TS WAS ABSOLUTE PEAK!!!! holy cinema take my 5 stars man
Thanks!
Thank you for your five stars, penis_music!
Perfect creepy vibe and fantastic audio work, it really puts it all together. I really wish we took the time to do some audio for ours, but we're not so used to that yet. Thanks for the inspiration
Thanks so much!
Glad you liked it and thanks for playing! Callum and I both come from a film background where we've already learned 1000 times over that sound makes up more than 50% of the experience. Seems the same is true for games! That said, sound design for your game would have been drowned out by me cheering and hollering for my snail hahaha
As everyone else is saying, this felt super polished! Congratulations!
Thanks!
Thanks heaps!
Others have said it but the voiceacting and aesthetic were very advanced for a game jam. This is a 10/10 for me for this jam. Definitely following you for your work as a result of this game.
Thanks so much! I did the V.O myself and was a little nervous but I am glad people are liking it. Thanks!
That's so generous of you! Thank you so much for playing!
Gladly! Either of you are welcome to give me a ring if you ever need someone for music/SFX on future projects, I really resonated with your approach on this project.
Insanely cool! Those close up cutscenes on the box were amazing, and the voice acting was really well done. Nice work!
Thanks so much!
This was a great play through. Nice job!
Thank you! Loved your game.
This was so freaking cool! Awesome job!
Thanks mate!
Thanks!
Really cool look. And a satisfying little story, really gave the box some character!
Thanks mate! I played your game as well and thought it was great!
awesome va and environment design. really cool escape room mechanics
Thanks mate! Loved your game as well!
As a fan of puzzles i really enjoyed that one and it reminded me of another favourite "Stories Untold". Great work, the storytelling, the graphics and the atmosphere are all amazing. The terra artifact is also a very cool way to show the theme and the puzzles. A great experience really!
Really glad you enjoyed it! Happy to hear that it all ended up being effective! I'll have to check out Stories Untold as well. Even from a brief look it looks very cool.
Wow! Amazing game story is captivating and everything from the cinematic to the shader really brings you in!
Thanks! Really glad you liked it!
Tone and narrative are superb. Well done.
Thank you!
absolutely 10/10 presentation and vibes!
Thank you so much!
Thanks so much!
