I really want to see more games like this and you guys did a wonderful job. Which accounts should I follow for updates on this game? All four of you or do you post your games to just one?

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

This was a rando team formed for the jam haha. We will definitely talk about making more games together :) For now following me or Zun would be great!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for your kind words! We'll definitely keep making games :D

I enjoy the game very much, was honestly struggling to get use to it but when you get it, it's honestly a nice experience. I enjoy the pacing and writing and the sound choice for the ambiance really adds to the mood. My only feedback is when you examine the place, there's no way to leave it unless you click on the map, a slight hassle when you still want to examine the same room but aside from that I really enjoy the game!

Nice game, atmosphere is super creepy and the writing is great

Am I  a murderer? A bad one as I get caught two times haha ^^ I really loved the art and the ambiance of the game. I would add the possibility to exit the menu where you can go from a place to another because sometimes I opened it by mistake and couldn't do anything else than pick a place to go. Great submission! Did you try Angry Shepherd?

Developer

Thank you so much for you feedback! 

Yes! I tried your game and absolutely enjoyed it :D

I finished the game with great pleasure. Nice graphics in the style of pixel-art, a truly intriguing plot, an interesting concept with a loop and attempts to correct the situation over and over again. Great job!

Submitted

Fantastic artwork. The story was a really cool surprise! For such a short jam, this is impressive!

Submitted

Really smart game! I thought it was really funny that you could just take the body with u and throw it in the elevator shaft :skull: The ending was also really cool and a nice twist :3 (dont wanna say too much about the ending so i dont spoil anyone)

Submitted

Great pixel art! I’m not a good point-and-click player, but I managed to beat the game. I really liked the interesting ending. I heard you guys had a little troubles at the beginning of the jam. Great job for finishing it nevertheless!

Submitted

This is a great game to make in just a week! You should keep doing games. I liked the way you slowly added more stuff attempt after attempt.

Submitted

Amazing work! Tried so many ways to win, yet something still got me. No issues found, gameplay and history are pretty nice, the music really fits the game. So yeah, great job in one week!

Submitted

It was one hell of a game. I can't believe you did all this in just one week. Amazing work. Felt very professional.

Ending was unexpected but great. Thanks for making this game!

I really like the general idea of the story, the concept and almost everything about it. The visuals and the overall atmosphere of the game are really really great! :)

What I don't like is that the game just seems to reveal more actions only if I am doing wrong things and get caught - or am I missing something here? This way it feels like I am not the one who is playing but the game is the one who is in charge.


Amazing submission! :)

Developer

Yes. For the first two playthroughs it was planned to let the players fail the game to fit the story we are telling. If we had more time (or better time management), we would definitely let the players have more freedom and more gameplay. 

Thank you! Hope you enjoyed the game!

HOLY HELL THIS GAME IS FRICKING AMAZING!

This game should get 6/5 in EVERYTHING. The art and audio are phenomenal, the ending was pretty unexpected, the atmosphere was creepy and everything was perfect.

Really immersive. One of the best story-driven games I played yet on this jam :)

Is it planned so each retry you unlock new doors etc?

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your kind words! 

Yes...it was planned like that for the sake of the story. :D

Love your game as well!

That was excellent! Really good implementation of the Dialogic plugin. I loved the pixel art, it was really creepy and had this dreary, heavy vibe that captured the feel of the game well.

I got caught by the police a couple of times, oops! Narratively, this was really interesting and well-planned. Every time I died, I was like "oh, yeah, of course I forgot to do that." 

Great entry and a solid point-and-click game.

Developer

Thank you! I had a lot of fun playing your game as well. Wish we could create something like yours :D

Super interesting investigative point-and-click game, the pixel art is super cool and the creepy atmosphere with the music is great. Well done!

Developer

Glad that you enjoyed it!

I like that the story has multiple endings, and the music in the background adds a level of creepiness and edge. It was fun!

It's Spooky 😱
