It looks cool especially for a 1 week game. I liked the grab/throw mechanic. Atmosphere was also nice. Good job!

My bad if I am playing it wrong but I can't seem to be able to get out of the first gate. Is it something from my side, or is this some weird bug?

It's a part of the puzzle, let me give you a hint, if you don't know a simple way, find a cracking way :)

Huh. That was neat. 
I got out of the first room, but the lighting is just too dark now. There's barely any visibility which may or may not have made me quit after going around the maze blindly for some time.
Could you increase the light? I am certain it would be helpful to the game

Brillant ,this game reminds me of "Resident evil" in interactions and atmosphere ,idk but the instructions text doesnt show very good because of the camera resolution idk ,i just like the puzzles and the animations verysatisfying but mayba working in the Ui wold be great ,adding a darker mood woould be better especially using the lamp cuz i can walk without even using it as the room looks brightneed and yeah nice game

Thanks bud, Yeah i couldn't do much in ui because of the time, i agree on making it more dark, i thought at first too much dark will make it hard.

Quite impressive 3d game for the time constraints. The puzzles are challenging but not annoying and the mood is perfect. I did find one bug where the object to throw moves away from your hand once you pick it up, but other than that, nice job!

It's nice! The instructions for some levels disappeared right away and couldn't read it well. I liked that sometimes there seems to not be an escape but there is, you just have to keep looking and trying things haha

Haha yess, i made it that way because of the time limits, i could.t do much onboarding

I'm not sure if this is what you were going for, but it was definitely interesting based purely off how batshit crazy it was. I see this as a good thing though, so I liked it! Nice job! Also, if you want to check out my game I'd appreciate it!

Thanks, i didn't know what i wanted so it's just instincts

The cover art doesn't match with the creepy vibe of the game so I was taken aback, but it was very strange and bewildering. I was sort of expecting it to be an interactive fiction game or a dating sim or something, but it was more like a haunted mansion with surprises :D Maybe you would like the vibe of our game too!!

Truly bizarre, I was enraptured purely by befuddlement. I love the hidden features and deep world building. I was expecting a cheap visual novel, but what I got was so much more.

Thanks you liked it, did you found enemies? i have a section where you need to go through combats.

Reply
VirtualOdysseySubmitted3 years ago

I don't think i got that far, how do you get past the red arrow

Reply
zealot.fxDeveloper3 years ago

Me exposing that would be less fun for others, so I'll try to tweak it on next update so it's more reachable

Very good game in general terms, the setting is incredible and the graphics are quite amazing to be made in a week. The puzzles are well designed in general. Well done!!

I actually made it seem unpredictable but once you'll know it, you'll say that's stupid :))),  you are right on track, just bring chaos in the room and you'll find out. throw things around, G & Q
