Untitled Escape(1)Really awesome game with some really cool ideas and honestly made me feel like a bad person. The art is really incredible and the sound design is wonderful. While I did enjooy the characters, I do feel like some of their "Quests" were a bit too "Go here because I said to", but again I really liked it overall.
It was less how simple the quest was, it just needed some justification. "Get me this thing and I'll tell you story" doesn't really work for me. What if instead, the old man was struggling to talk and the character said "Maybe some water will help him?", then as a thank you the old man gives some back story? It tells you a bit more about the character and the location, while also making it something urgent enough that the player feels justified spending time on it.
I totally agree. I want to combine this art style with a game where I have more time to focus on the game design. As linear as this was, my previous game jam game was even more linear so I think I'm developing in the right direction. Puzzles are very challenging to develop in a tight time constraint.
I really enjoyed the art and sound design on this one! The story definitely worked together with the both of those, so great job on that. I wish that there was something else the player could have done in the camp area part as it felt like I was just walking back and forth trying to figure out how to proceed with the game. Other than that, it's really impressive that you all worked on this with a GameBoy aesthetic and the work you guys put in definitely shows. Awesome job y'all!

Isolation (Demo)Wow that was a fun ride! The sprites are just AWESOME! If you would've asked me if it's possible to create a great horror game with the gameboy aesthetic I would've said no way! But you did it and it works really great! The gamedesign is also really oldschool with that backtracking and stuff. One of my favorites in this jam for sure! :) Awesome job! Congrats!
