How does your game fit the theme?
The game is a countdown with the display removed. The facility's clocks are broken, so the only timekeeping left is a one-per-second alarm pulse, and the player counts it by ear. There's no timer on screen anywhere. The single exception is the lockout you get for failing a puzzle, which shows you the seconds ticking down. It's the only visible number in the game, and you only get it by being wrong.

Very cool game! The monster sounds put you on edge, the heavy breathing and timer make you want to rush! I got to day 10 on my first run, then the damn wires came. I'm a trackpad user, I couldn't go fast enough anymore.
Really cool atmosphere!
I loved the visuals.
I kept hearing monster sounds and the game's description implies there is one, but i never encountered it.
I love how the intensity slowly increases from round to round! 10/10
Insane game - ambience was totally a 10/10 best i've seen in this jam so far!
I really liked it, got scared of a jumpscrae and had to leave:(
Big on the narrative. I loved how well you take the player through the intensity of it all. Super well done!
I’m really impressed that you managed to produce such a polished piece of work in just four days. I mean, it’s a brilliant collection of mini-games. I also really love the lighting and sound effects in the games! Well done!
Cool game. I really love the atmosphere
The idea of having yourself to countdown is very creative and i love the aesthetics
This was really well executed! I love the fact that there is a number minigame so I get lost in counting down the time while trying to think of the sequence! I got to day 13 and only needed one more supply but I died :(
I loved the atmosphere, the visuals, it all feels so cohesive with the vibes you guys are going for!
Great Game and surprised to see this done within 4 days :D
Really cool game! It gets super intense down when the timer gets around a minute. And the graphics really are well done!
Really cool game! I was getting a sort of horror vibe, but the minigame fiesta it ended up being was a pleasant surprise. I absolutely love the VFX on here as well. The dithering effect with the lighting is super awesome! Fantastic work :D
This is a pretty sick game! I absolutely love the visuals. Felt a little bit repetitive as I kept getting the colour matching minigame but they were fun editions that added some good tension!
Pretty good but some enemy chasing the player would be nice.
if only there were a ghost in this game..
It's a very good game! I enjoyed it
This was so cool! It fit the theme perfectly in more ways than one!

The visuals, atmosphere, and sound design are all excellent. However, the gameplay feels a bit repetitive.
The core concept is really interesting, but adding some kind of threat or introducing changes to the environment each day could make every day feel fresh and give players something new to look forward to.
Overall, great work.
The atmosphere it's the best part of the game. I felt a little bit disconnected between that and the mini games that remind me a little bit more of Among Us rather than a dangerous facility.
