How does the game fit the theme?
"Trust No One" is the entire mechanic, not just flavor text. You wake up in what looks like your own house, but a voice speaking directly into your mind keeps stating things about it — calm, confident, and sometimes wrong. The player has to distrust that voice specifically, along with their own instinct to believe whatever feels most familiar, and instead verify each object against what's actually consistent. There's no external villain to fight — the tension comes entirely from not knowing which parts of your own memory (or the thing speaking as your memory) can be believed.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Only some furniture prop models and sounds are reused third-party assets. Everything else — code, level design, writing, and the rest of the assets — was made during the jam.

Was a very cool and interesting game!

Interesting premise, but I couldn't help but feel like I didn't understand the game. The audio and visuals are very good, but there was no clear goal. Besides that, good job.

Fixed the jump scare bug — the camera now snaps to look at it when it pops up, so it won't happen off-screen anymore. Also added a clue at the start of the game to help you know what to do. Thanks for the feedback, everyone!

The jump scares were definitely intense with headphones, great job with atmosphere!

Visuals were cool, and the sounds made it spookier. like others said though the jumpscares were kind of laggy for my, i think I got one frame of the hand, but thats good for me since im bad with horror, GREAT WORK

They just dont give us many options with engines and smooth 3d graphics. The hitches affect my game as well, nicely done getting it running in the browser!

Great atmosphere and visuals. The jump scares made my computer lag unfortunately, and felt a little cheap. I'm not sure I fully get what was going on, but great job nonetheless.

The vibe was great, I was a bit confused about what was going on, though, and only really saw the hand try to get me, but good start of something

Love the shader

It felt spooky. The audio kept freking me out, and the guy popping in and out was a good jump scare. Id love more to do but this is a really good entry for the jam. Awesome job!

The visuals and audio are spectacular, and the concept is great, but honestly, I didn't fully get the story. I'd love to see a finished game on this topic with more time spent polishing it.

The atmosphere, visuals and audio are really great. You really exceled at that! I wish there would have been a bit more to do gameplay wise. Looking forward to a full release :)

I really enjoyed the game. The shader over the screen lagged my computer a bit but other wise 9/10.

One of the best atmospheres of this game jam, i literally couldnt walk of the fear ;-;

Submitted(+1)

Great atmosphere, not sure if it was just the web build or something but there was a bunch of fps drops particularly where the jump scares were and it kinda ruined the experience. Once thing i would advice on, definitely make objects change a bit when you can interact with them and/or maybe remove the option to interact with them if you can no longer do so. I found myself wandering around for a while to figure out which object i still had to interact with.

I love the shader on everything gave such spooky vibes. I was a little confused on what to do and that I had done anything. Something coming down from outside the ceilings was cool (a giant hand?).
