Had the voice lines break half way through interacting with items even after a refresh? No idea what I did differently both times just wandered and doom scrolled! But a neat view, I'd assume this is what a very anxious person feels at the knocking of their door. It looks amazing and captures that old school game vibes, enjoyed the more comedic endings! (Got the pizza, and sore throat ones!)

Developer

Yeah our audio implementiation is a bit scuffed as the original intent was to use fmod but we couldnt get it working
Thank you for checking out our game :)

The game is really fun—lots of interactions, dialogue, and high-quality sound effects. And above all, it has a superb PSX style—it definitely deserves its rating!!

Thank you for checking out our game :D

Submitted

very cool game, lots of things to do even though its pretty short

Developer

Yess, its meant to be a "last as long as you can", I'm curious which ending did you get?  :) there are 4 in total!!!

Submitted

wait what i didn鈥檛 notice anything, is it the different dialogs at the end? I might play it again to see then

Developer

yeess the dialogues are different!! if you do play, have fun (mandatory) !!!!

This is an interesting take on a horror game, I'd admit. The concept of slowly pulling the player towards the door against their will is really unique, though it's a bit dizzying at times. The voiceover is great too, which I think for a game jam it's always extra effort that deserves recognition. (Why listen to creepy pasta  when you are on the brink of insanity XD) Any, nicely done!

Other things I like:

  • Doomscrolling in-game
  • A lot of interactables
  • An unexpected ending
  • Itch page looks nice
  • Subtitles

Suggestions:

  • As I'd said, the forced movement really makes people feel dizzy. I guess removing the forced rotation would help a bit
  • A crosshair would be great for interactions and act as a visual anchor
  • Final screen is too blurred and too obvious it's a jpeg, which breaks the immersion of the game a bit

Thank you for checking out our game! A lot of work went into it ,especially the voice lines as there are ~100 of them throughout.  I agree with the dizzying affect, it can get quite jarring if you have high compulsion and are trying to look away. The final screen was a bit of a compromise as we did want a sort of cutscene but ended up running out of time and had to settle for something simple instead as we had ~4 hours left till deadline and didn't want to risk being late :D   I'm curious, which ending/-s did you get? (it gives you one at random)

I got the car insurance one at first, which I liked a lot. Also got the pizza one and the blooper later on, didn't get the fourth one, though

The 4th one is a checkup on your fire extinguisher expiration date :)

The best entry I've played so far for sure! I love your humor and the I scanned the QR code  it leads to your itch page :) I just love everything about this game. I can't believe I was scrolling in a game, so realistic :) I love how the door pulls you in more as you lose your sanity (This is way better than a meter of some sort). Amazing game, thanks for making this!

Developer

Thank you for playing :)

Very unique mechanic in terms of being drawn to the door (and very cool implementation!!) I found myself laughing multiple times from the different interactables and the incredible voice acting. Bravo!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for checking out our game! Theres ~100 voice lines in the game which is totally overkill but made for a super interesting time getting all of them assigned properly. We even snuck in a blooper as one of the random ending voicelines :D

Submitted

Wow, 100!? I must have missed some interactables :p

This is really cool, very unique gameplay. The apartment is very well designed too. The audio had a couple of issues, so for example until my third time going back the character didn't actually speak so I was a bit surprised there :D but overall well made game

Developer

thank you!! the audio sometimes is weird but restarting the page usually helps, thank you for playing!!! :) I hope the ending was also surprising,

I don't know what to make of this. The room was very cozy and polished. I wanted to check it out, but I kept being pulled towards the door.  There was no music playing either. I'd categorize this game under weird for sure. 

PS: I tried the game a third time, and this time there was music playing. I also found a room at the back. A lot of effort went into designing the place, so it's a shame that I couldn't explore it a little bit. 

Developer

Yeah a good amount of effort went into the level design, we had plans to add a toggle for the compulsion effect so players could freely explore, but we completely forgot due to several compiler issues and general Unity jank causing bugs left, right and center that needed addressing first.  And we will take 'weird' as a compliment as that was partially what we were aiming for. Thank you for trying our game :)

truly a masterpiece hahahaha

+1 for the seal. SEAL SEAL SEAL. The interactions are very cute besides the headphones which was an experience. The ending was also unexpected.

Developer

Which ending did you get? there are 4 in total :D

Submitted(+1)

the pizza one, do i have to do something specific for other endings? cause i only got the pizza one three times so far

Developer (1 edit)

maybe reloading the page helps? :0  the endings are randomised so its a chance you get each, but damn, three times, thats such a lucky chance... there are a total of 4 possible 'ending' voicelines, one of which is a blooper

Submitted(+1)

Really nice idea, I like visuals and the little interactions.

Developer

thank you 馃槉
