Saw you had a new game out, and I had to take a look. Seemed really interesting.

The story is really good, quite dark.

I’ll definitely check it out again when you complete it, it looks like it’ll come together nicely.

A few bugs you should be aware of:

  • Checking the storage room (was it? The one on the very left) the first time you go looking for water breaks the sequence for the second part, when you’re checking things before the party, and you can’t advance.
  • There are two missing sound files, “shotgun.ogg” and “shotgunReload.ogg”, so the game can’t advance here too.

I was testing the Windows build, so I just replaced the missing files and was able to finish it anyway. That was quite the ending. I was expecting something like that, but not that. Well done!

Thanks a lot for playing it! Really glad you liked it :)

Which build was that? The 0.4 one had the sound fixes, supposedly. Also the first time you go looking for water so after the dream sequence?

Yes, it was the 0.3. I think I missed the 0.4 by like 10 minutes lol

And that’s the spot, right after the dream sequence. You can check the cupboards at that stage, which causes them to not do anything when you actually need to later.

Ohhhhh yeah I realized that while checking. Well technically you increased the variable that tracks what you've checked soooooo yayyyyyy(?) 😂😂

And ah good glad the 0.4 version didn't have the sound issue... At least for now!

Interesting story; will be intriguing to see how this develops after the jam.

I like the tall, sophisticated style of the Mr. Mercer sprite and it will be good to see all the other placeholders done in that style when the game is complete. Nice work :)

Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it :)

It'll have a style similar to Engineering Marvels From Hell, hopefully
