I used a few free license audio clips but that’s it.

I like the concept and there is room for improvement: make the character walk faster and provide stronger clues if the player is taking to long to find a solution.
Still, very original.
Thanks for playing! And yeah I realize some things I could have improved upon. Unfortunately I was too ambitious with my game idea for my skill level and really didn’t have enough time to fix them.
For what I was able to play this seems very neat! I Liked the idea and the gameplay seems according to the story. I was not able to continue pass the 3 day; I have the 3 sticknotes but Iwasnt abe to open teh cavinet (I thought teh combiation is 214; the number of people in each note, but I dont know if I was checking correctly, no 1 neither e worked as a confirmation). I dont know if im an too dumb to continue or if the game is not working, if you let me know I will try it again later!
You were right I have no idea why that would not work. I tested it a few times but I was kinda cramming at the end so I might have missed something. Other people have been able to get to the end so I really don’t know what happened. Sorry that you were not able to complete it. Hope you enjoyed the game besides that.
I had a quite fun time with it! The story was interesting even if a little predictable. The moments when spirals appear were genuinely eerie and a contrast to rather calm normal music - good job with that.
One issue I had is I couldn't find a note with the passcode. Dialogue said I have found some sticky notes in the apartment but wouldn't say what's exactly on them. I ended up typing every combination and luckily managed to get it early on.
For a first game jam that is a very solid entry!
Thanks! You should have been able to open a file with the letter E which the police guy says but that’s good you were able to find out the padlock anyway. Thanks for playing!
The game is quite long, so I didn't finish it. It's cool that you can interact with pretty much everything, but that's also the downside - it makes the pacing pretty slow, especially for a game jam. Still, great job making it feel so cohesive and atmospheric!
Thanks for playing and the feedback! I didn't even consider the fact that people have so many games to rate and cant spend too much time playing each one.
