Very good and unique idea! Could you rate my game too? It also has a little puzzle in which you need to use your hearing!

Unique idea, really interesting take on the topic and generally as a game concept ^^  Great job!

Really cool concept!

Quite unusual experience. Feel bad about Misha.

This was awesome! I've had similar ideas, of moving the mouse based on sound, but I love what you did with it. The story and mechanics were intriguing. Some of the sound cues were a bit weird to me - I might get closer to the source in the left, but hear it in the right, then go to the right and get further away from the source.

Thank you very much!

In some passages I reused the same sounds on different sources, for example for the water leaks at the end. This may explain the fact of hearing the same noise in different places and the weird behaviors depending on the movement ^^

Good job on the game! Really interesting premise with just audio. The subtle detail on audio when moving the mouse was really well done and the story was captivating.

Very unique game, good job

This is probably the most unique game on this game jam! It needs more votes! I really enjoyed it. 

But... What happened to the doggie? 

Developer

I had planned 2 more days in the story but I didn't have time to do them because I got sick ^^' But I will make a release after the jam and it will tell what happens to Misha ;)

Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback!

Poor Misha :c

This was very unique and well executed, good job!

Submitted(+1)

this is so cool, very well done, i immediately closed my eyes which rendered a very unique gameplay experience, also thank you for including a Mac download!

What an amazing experience, this is really fun, it is one of the most unique game I've found in this game jam, good narration

Submitted(+1)

Nice job! This definitely stands out and the mechanics are cool ^-^ although I'm not sure how to rate it on graphics, haha. At first, I wasn't sure about the voice acting, but I like it :) You really sell it by the end, although maybe you could get a friend to do the chapter voice or radio newscast voice just to vary it a little. I hope you continue this; I want to know if Misha made it out alive!

Developer

I would have liked to do better for the voices indeed, with other people and a better microphone, but I ran out of time ^^'

And for the graphics you can note the Itchio banner or roll the dice hehe 🤭

Great idea, love the narration. Definitely stands out for its unique gameplay

Nice submission!

Liked the voice acting. Clear and expressive. You clearly described what to do at each step. Perhaps, since that wasn't my house, more indication of roughly where things should be could be useful? There was one time when you said the radio was below the window, so maybe it's on your radar. Though I eventually found everything without issue.

To play, I landed on a Z shaped scroll down the screen, beginning with where I thought my target should be. After a while, I discovered I needed to slow down my scroll since by the time I heard feedback, my cursor was across the window (looking at the cursor is probably cheating, but still...)

Played with headphones as recommended. It was fun listening for my target, especially that eager dog! Great sound in general.

Really enjoyed this.

Thank you for the detailled feedback ^^

Submitted(+1)

oh my goodness, this was so unique and creative! its been polished so well a gem would get jealous...
i have no other words...just know that all of the categories i rated are signed with 5 stars! (aside from the graphics category...im sorry XD)

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much, I really appreciate it ^^

And for the graphics I totally understand X) At first I wanted to put an animation of Misha who asked not to give a bad grade in graphics for the joke but I didn't have time ^^'

And I'm going to find a way to play your game!

Submitted(+1)

Wow! I've never seen anything like this! This is a very original idea! I liked it!
But... how should I rate this game based on its visuals? :)

Developer

I'm glad you like it ^^

You can rate based on the game's itch.io banner or roll a dice 😁
