Very grateful to everyone who reviewed my game! Also huge thank you for all the great feedback!
I’m working on a full version for this game with some very big twists and additions. It will keep the narrative spine but I am heavily reworking and changing the things around it. If you’d like to follow my progress please join the discord :)
Coll paper please style game! the setting was really interesting and the narrative interaction was not given. had a blast! the heavy door with the slit is really similar to our entry ahah
Hello from Discord! I've been waiting for so long for someone to make a "Papers, Please" style game, and now you've done it - I really enjoyed it! By adding more mechanics, you can make it a worthy successor to the original. Great job, I'm delighted! If you are interested, rate our game - it would be great to know your opinion.
OMGGGG I got goosebumped when I play your game. Are you gonna update a new version or a full version after the jam? I'm down for it!!
Really enjoyed this ! The atmosphere is excellent and the writing is engaging. I clearly felt the paper please vibe, but it has its own identity and feels incredibly polished for a game jam. Great work, and good luck with the full version !! I will definitely keep an eye on it
Very engaging, I was hooked honestly. Very papers please (but you already knew that), it was so smart of you to make a whole game out of just a single scene - scope wise - and it worked really well. Good job!
The game that kept me hooked the longest out of all the ones I’ve tried so far. Some of the moral choices are absolutely heartbreaking, and I love the level of polish you put into this. I couldn’t find a flaw even if I really had to try hard. I loved the writing, the sound design, the way everything is presented, and if this doesn’t get to the top spots of the jam, consider me very very mad.
Thanks for trying my game even with no guarantee I’d get around to rating yours! That you trusted a random stranger on the internet says a lot about the person behind this amazing little game. Glad to hear you’re developing a full version too now. I wish you all the success you can get, friend!
Really enjoyed this one! Felt very polished and definitely gave me Papers, Please vibes, but with more focus on testing your moral compass. Being able to actually choose without receiving an auto game over felt right. The writing, art, and atmosphere were really well done! Great work! :)
Awesome take on the countdown theme! BIG fan of papers please and this scratched that itch! Great work c:
Such a great and complete game. I have no Idea how you made this in such a small time frame as your first submission, but good job! The writing is super nice and everything fits into the game, you have to make this a full release.
Thank you so much! Really means a ton! I’ve been working as a software engineer for over 7 years now and have been modding/prototyping games in my free time, just never fully finished or went public with anything. So I do have my fair share of experience with some things but it was a lot of fun actually participating for once :)
I do want to keep working on this game, if you’d like you could join my discord! I’d love to have you as a playtester and hear your thoughts on the progress :)
ohhhhhh this is really good! I’m just glad I was able to save the girl tbh tbh
Really nice and polished game! It's always interesting to read stories of all sorts of creatures/people. 1 piece of feedback: I didn't understand which pass was valid and which was not when comparing day 47 and day 50+. But that's the only little thing, all the rest felt amazing^^
