It was too dark for me. I like this dungeon crawling like games, but I am really bad at first person platforming. It's a fun game, but you die a lot.

This is easily my favorite concept I've seen on this gamejam. Really liked the whole idea, execution is also done quite well, though obviously a bit rough. I would love to play a more finished and polished version of this game!
As some feedback - notebook needs to be more easy to use, I've been struggling to find correct letters. In exchange, you could add mechanics that make you lose letters, or make some letters change numbers if you went into some room. Definitely more healing items required, I've been searching for sushi like crazy. Also obviously more rooms would be great, but you can only do so much in 7 days.
Really great game! Good job!

Behind The DoorThe theme was spot on! I genuinely caught myself asking "whats behind this door" everytime! I like the procedural generation of the map, it makes for a fun new selection of rooms each time and the randomness of the items in the chest. Also I really enjoyed the difficulty, not too hard but definitely had me questioning a few of the words a couple of times. For improvements, potentially a few additions such as background audio, the length of killing an enemy through punching was tedious, maybe reduce hitpoints. Overall, extremely grasping game, it had me hooked, Great job!

Awake AgainThe creepy atmosphere was pretty cool. The game did feel like a maze though not sure if that was intended but i felt lost and hopeless!

Sound eScape!Excellent interpretation of the theme. I was able to get most of the letters but after a while I didn't get any new word so I got stuck at 18/26.

Goblins & FireballsThis has taken number one for me so far! I absolutely love the innovative mechanics, i feel like this could make a very fun horror game, if you added a creature chasing you or something. You should be super proud! Would love to see a full steam port or something similar!

EntamaphobiaVery nice use of theme, when me and my jam partner were coming up with ideas for the theme we originally had the idea of making a door memory game too but we had no idea how to make it interesting or fun, I think you nailed both interesting and fun in such a unique way. Amazing game, great work.
