Great work! I really loved the creepy atmosphere you created.  The art was great and the controls were intuitive. The challenge was in figuring out what to do. It reminded me a bit of older adventure games where you have to try everything to solve a puzzle. Nice job!

Developer

Thank you so much!

Good job guys!

Art is really solid and the sound of the footsteps is super creepy!
I wish there was a little bit more feedback for the player when you're nearby an interactable item.

Overall super great work!

If you have some time, please give our game a play :)

Developer

Thanks!

I've tried to play your game but unfortunately the game doesn't run on my computer :(

The web version is forever stuck on the loading screen :(

I'm really sorry pal, but the idea behind your game seems interesting though XD

Not a problem, thanks for giving it a try. :)

The windows version of the game should run pretty smoothly, but no problem :)

Awesome overall theme and mood! Gave me a feeling of urgency. 

I escaped the room. As others have stated, I am not quite sure why it says I am doomed; possibly some additional explanation would help.  Additionally, others have stated they are unsure where the generator is. In my opinion, leaving that as a guessing game adds to the experience; one suggestion is to add a sign that it can be interacted with when the player does not have all the required components to let them know to come back to it  (a graphic and/or a sound perhaps).

Fun game and well executed!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback and compliments!

We definitely forgot about the sign, thanks for pointing that out, we'll be adding that soon :)

Art looks really nice and climactic, but I didn't get what was I supposed to do and monster kept getting stuck on geometry around the level.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing!

We're sorry for the lack of guidance. And the monster getting stuck must be a bug that needs to be cleaned up soon. Thanks for pointing that out :)

I played couple of times but didn't really get what I was supposed to do. Was that glowing box in the bottom right the generator? Couldn't interact with that. Art was nice, but gameplay was a bit frustrating.

Developer

Hello, thanks for playing!

You need to find all papers first to start the generator, so if you haven't got them all, you can't interact with it. We're really sorry for not giving any sign to tell you that you haven't got enough paper. We'll be sure to add them in soon.

Nice art and fun to play! I am not sure if I missed something, but I escaped a few times with different puppets, but every time the game said that I am doomed?

Developer

Hey there, thanks for playing!

The "You are doomed!" part in the ending of the game was made like that to fit into the story, originally. But I guess we haven;t got the story quite right XD

Submitted

I don't really understand how the game works and what i need to do, i'm a bit frustated because I love the art ! 

Developer

Hello there, thanks for the praise!

We're sorry to put you into confusion with the lack of guidance in this game. Players' sole objective is to find all the papers scattered in the room and feed them to a generator to open the door. I hope that small explanation helps.

Thank you I will try the game again with those explanations in mind!
