How does the game fit the theme?
The game is built around the idea of “Trust No One.” You investigate the disappearance of a local madman obsessed with conspiracy theories, slowly uncovering evidence that suggests he may have been right all along. The player is forced to question what is paranoia, what is real, and who can actually be trusted.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
We reused some of our own pre-existing systems and assets from previous projects, including the main menu and settings, the Player Controller, the Player Interaction System, and a small selection of 3D models and sound effects.
All reused assets were originally created by our team.

Lovely game! The color palette blended really well with the pixel art on the simple models. And the music syncing with the timer is very cool.
I had issue with some puzzles, but your walkthrough was really helpful. Looking forward to the complete game!
Great game! Loved the atmosphere and this is what I wanted my games gameplay to be like. I would definitely buy this if you put this on steam.
Edit: Just watched the walkthrough and I beat the game while only solving one puzzle. I somehow clicked the objects in order and randomly clicked the wall. Despite that I still loved the game and just assumed the puzzles weren't finished. My case is very unlikely but probably make sure there's a check like an if statement to make sure they unlocked the closet. The puzzles are great from what I saw in the in the walkthrough.
Really well put together, and had me stumped for a while. Felt very polished, and the puzzle design was great. Might have to check out some of your other games now.
I must say your walkthrough video helps me a lot in solving the final puzzle XD Fun and overall really polished gameplay. Kudos to the team!
Great game! I love a good escape room. I felt stumped for the exact correct amount of time.
Hey, I enjoyed the environment that you guys made for the escape room and all of the detail you guys put in it. I struggled with finding the button on the bookshelf after competing the bookshelf puzzle but other than that fun puzzle game.
The art and interactions are very pretty and satisfying, I was stuck for a bit since I did not realise I could move the pinboard for longer than I would like to admit. Well done!
I’m so sad that I’m stuck on the first puzzle with the books ;-; I’ve done a few escape rooms and I’m generally okay at them but I couldn’t for the life of me get this one. The ambience & visuals are really great though. I love the references via the paintings and the rest of the props
If you want to give it another try, I've posted a walkthrough. The game is pretty linear, so you can pause the video if you don't want to spoil the rest of the puzzles for yourself.
I'm usually pretty bad at escape room games. but this one was fun! Although I got stuck on the first puzzle. But the game felt polished and I really liked the small touches added like the interactions with random objects. Great job!
I’ve put up a walkthrough in case you want to jump back in. Since the puzzles follow a pretty straightforward order, you can stop watching as soon as you get the hint you need and keep the rest spoiler-free.
The puzzles were very Good. I think the final puzzle was a bit misleading but I did figure it out eventually. I hope you do continue the idea 👍
didnt played the game but the art work you did man ....hatts off to you
