Really cool story and nice ambiance to the whole game, felt spooky the whole way through!

Developer

The best compliment we’ve had so far, thank you!

Submitted

NIce game bro. Played your game.

Developer

Thanks for giving it a try 

Submitted

Great game! The visuals look really good and create a  nice atmosphere, although I noticed a few bugs throughout.

Feel free to check out my game if you have the time :)

Developer

Thank you for your comment! We are aware of the bugs, I'll upload the bug-free version when the jam is over. 
Will definitely check your game later!

Developer

thanks for your intel, I will definitely try yours later

Hey! Cool game! I think I encountered an issue though, the first enemies in the game don't seem to kill me and my character is like stuck.

Also you can go out of bounds on the library part, and the shooting doesn't seem to work for me.

Developer

Thank you for your comment! Yeah, the game is pretty buggy as we didn’t have a enough time to fix it in time. To shoot you have to find a gun and then select it in the inventory by clicking on it.

I played your game and rated it! I had lots of fun! The graphics were close to amazing and the 2d lighting was nice as well. Good game. 8/10

If you don't mind, could you play and review my game? I need some constructive criticism.

Thank you and I will definitely try yours soon

The graphics are very good.The music really sets the tone! I like the walking and puzzle parts. But my gun just wouldn't work :( I aimed but it just wouldn't shoot. I had the bullets selected

Developer

sorry to hear that,  you should select the gun rather then the bullets to shoot

Great job, there were a couple of glitches, but I didn’t find they took away from the overall gameplay. Do you mind rating mine when you get a chance?

Developer

thank you and i will definitely try yours later

Submitted

Nicely done!

Developer

thank you

The game really sets the atmosphere well right away. Only thing i'd suggest is that especially in the dark, when the doors and the wall are the same color and similar texture it's a bit hard to tell them apart sometimes. I went from the main room to the hallway twice because I did not realise until later that there were other doorways in the sides of the hall. Overall good experience tho :)

I am happy it was a good experience  for you and thank you for the intel. Some parts relating the art were a bit last minute.

Submitted

Loved the atmosphere, noticed a few bugs but great game overall

Developer

I am glad you enjoyed it. It was really a race between the game and upload deadline we had to leave a lot of things broken and had to scarp  other mechanics as well. It was a bit rushed 

Submitted(+1)

Really nice game. Few glitches here and there but I enjoyed it overall.

Developer

thank you!

Cool, concept. However, I have seen some glitches. 1st u can noclip in the bathroom, I also wasn't able to shoot enemies I had 10 bullets and I was aiming, but the character just won't shoot anything.

Developer

did u have the gun selected 

Submitted

yes, he was aiming with gun in hand

Developer

but was the gun selected in the inventory 

Submitted

hmmm maybe it won't I will play again later and check that

Developer

we know you can noclip between rooms, unfortunantly we didn't have time to fix it. thanks for playing!

The atmosphere and over all vibe was really strong on this one and I think the progression feels pretty organic. I think it had some problems like checkpoints being a little too sparse and some controls felt a little clunky (like using item with left and right click at the same time), but otherwise it was pretty enjoyable.

I definitely like the game's atmosphere! Sounds, lights - everything gives some of that tension. Gameplay is simple but nice, all of those notes, etc - really nice. The only thing I wanna mention is a weird animation controller, it seems like transition duration time is too big and like you turned right already, but it still plays previous animation. And also I found a bug, you can get to the out-of-bounds in the library. And it is very nice project anyway!

Developer

thank you! we did realize you can the bottom of the library had no colliders but it was 10 minutes before submissions haha so not much can be done

Very good game! The atmosphere is good and it was fun exploring the environment trying to find out what happened. Good job!

The sounddesign and atmosphere in the game are good. 

I liked the gameplay but after a while I didn't really know where to go. I couldn't find anymore keys and the game quickly lost it's pace.  It also seemed a bit too much reliant on finding keys > opening a door > repeat.  

Very impressive that you made this in one week!
