Although i had some technical issues launching the game i really enjoyed it!

Amazing game. The theming and idea go so well together. A saw-like escape room with actual other players (at least their times) is such a good take on this theme. The visuals, sound design and especially the voice acting all make this a standout game. Of course the actual puzzles themself are also great. (I will say the upper last corridor on the maze puzzle felt like it's lower hitbox was a bit too high, but that is definitely nitpicking).

Great game.

best thing for me was the countdown of the players escaping the room, which is more unsettling than a standard timer! it's a nice idea with the theme in mind. coolguy out.

This game has such astounding VFX and direction, and the escape room itself is also wonderfully done, wish there was more tbh. I only played the download version where I was walking backward the entire time as if I always had S pressed, restarting didn't do anything so I ended up finishing the game while moonwalking everywhere I bet I looked so cool they just had to let me out. Really awesome stuff!

Happy to hear the feedback! Though that is a perplexing bug to hear, I have no idea how that possibly could have happened unless you had some other controller plugged in by accident somehow :0

This is so awesome, what an excellent twist on an escape room! You're so talented. I especially enjoyed the maze puzzle. Can't wait to see what you make in the future.

woaw what a great escape room! The shaders and the assets really vibe well, and the controls were always on point. The introduction was creepy but good, and the concept was solid! This is how you show controls without me checkin on your itchpage or some text! great job!

Developer

I'm glad the game was easy to understand from the get go! Thank you for the nice comments!

that was a pretty cool escape room! The intro was a bit long, but that's alright

The gameplay itself was cool, sfx made it satisfying, and I really like the stylized but simple art!

Wow! Really polished game. Great Saw inspired puzzle. I felt smart every time I completed a task. All the little minigames were so creative. I loved the art  style. Very creepy. Fantastic job!

Sorry to the next 15 players .

Loved that, very good. Only complaint is the maze felt slow to control in the middle of a death race :-D

This is, and I'm not exaggerating, the most fun I've had playing any games this jam. Everything was near perfect in my book. The art, the sound, the difficulty. It was really very balanced and polished. Fantastic job you guys! Really well done. 

Developer

Thank you so much!
