The art looks very good, though so far there鈥檚 only one room to explore. The game does seem promising if it could be fleshed out more!

Even very cool — a mystery game, ngl I'm so curious what you originally intended!!!

Promising stuff — those 3 blades of grass outside are definitely not there for nothing, they're not what they seem.

Cool art! I hope you continue the project :)

Developer

Thanks a lot :)

you probably should have lowered the bar for the art quality in order to dedicate more time to the game's content (its length, the gameplay experience, etc.). also, there is no sound in the game (or perhaps there鈥檚 a sound-related bug), I couldn't find the fourth clue, and there are no collision boundaries at the edges of the locations.

Developer

Yeah we are aware of the missing boundaries and the missing clue. There were couple of issues besides the quality of art slowing it down. Still, I'm happy we were able to upload something at least :)

The artstyle looks good, but there's no game to play yet. I can only get 3 out of 4 photos and when I get out of the house I get to a big blue plane with seemingly nothing. There are sound options, but no music, if I'm not mistaken. 

Another thing I wanted to highlight: the constant camera shake effect feels cinematographic and all that, but in my experience it made me dizzy after some time. I even had some nausea.

And watchout with the world bounds! I fell out of bounds in the house and in the big blue plane.

Besides that, looks like an interesting project, but I feel that the relationship with the theme and limitation is weak right now.

Developer

Yes, unfortunately we were unable to finish everything we wanted for the game. The sound exists, but is sadly not in the game yet. Because of the time we were also unable to fix the missing boundaries as well as add stuff connecting it to the theme and the limitation. Thanks for the feedback on the art and the camera effect :)

Amazing art and a great introduction make you curious as to what happened. But seems like it's just one room to explore as of now.

Developer

Unfortunately yes, there is nothing except this room, but I'm glad you liked the art :D

Visually great, but I dont think there is a full game. It is just the house. Still nice visuals ;)

Developer

Yeah, we ran out of time to finish it. But I'm glad you enjoyed the art :)

The visual style is fantastic! The cat is really cute. It's unfortunate that the game wasn't completed yet. 

Looking forward to the next update!

Thanks for playing. We are happy you liked it. We will try to finish the game as soon as possible :D

The visual design is fantastic, and I especially love the design of the main character. The writing is also quite good, drawing me into the story to find out what's going on. I didn't hear sound for this, but I can see many different possible routes for the soundtrack - I'm curious what you all had in mind. Nice work team!

You will have to wait and see :D thanks for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed the small amount we were able to put into it :)

Great art style! Not much else I can say as there doesn't seem to be much to do beyond grabbing a few of the photos. The art is on point and I hope you keep developing. Good Luck!

Developer

Sadly we didn't have enough time, but thanks for playing :)
