Ranked from 8 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
My project is about a storm of fog closing in, threatening to end the world. It's the last five minutes before it swallows everything, the calm before the storm.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. The only exception is the base mesh for my humanoid characters which I usually create off of a free-to-use base template made by Thomas Potter.

Pretty chill game  but tbh, it ain't really that fun to just wait for the storm and having nothing to do during it.


Hope that you'll also play mien :) https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690

Really interesting game! Went ended my first playthrough contemplating on the end of the world. Ended my playthrough by becoming one with the rats.

In all seriousness the feeling of dread and eventual peacefulness was really well conveyed. Love the message it's telling


One last thing... BUY THE COFFEE

Hee-ho. Cool idea. Good game (I was sad, coffee isn't poured)

This game is criminally underviewed. There is so much soulin the game and it was such a unique experience. I played it over and over until I got the best(?) ending (red sparkles?). Making this from scratch and adding so much personality to this must have been a huge effort. Realizing the sphere is shrinking and feeling that pressure while knowing there is nothing you can do to stop it is something I haven't seen done well since like Majora's Mask. I hope you keep making games like these, I enjoyed this a ton!

thank you so much for taking the time to play it! i’m glad you enjoyed and found the ‘good’ ending (i was worried i made it too obscure). the comparison to majora’s mask is hugely flattering - it’s one of my favorite games! made my day :D

"The Coffee" :)

I didn't know what I was doing most of the time but just walked around kicking that rat into the abyss. Good game, fully completed. I haven't encountered any bugs so that is quite wonderful for a project made within 7 days. Well done!

i’m really glad you liked it :D thank you!
