Absolutely LOVED the aesthetic and incredible sound design as well as the message! Fantastic job!
Short, but very intense. and PS1 graphics are perfect for the atmosphere. The gradual unease is very well done. The message is powerful and delivered perfectly.
I feel like the supermarket was a really smart choice since our food reflects every failure as a society. It doesn't only show the point of consumism we have reached, but what we are willing to "eat", from microplastic, to big shops funding wars or covering microplastics under fancy packaging. And yet, not only do people not have a choice, but sometimes can't even afford what's needed... This was very on point, very aware, and very well done. Also, every aspect of the game works great together, creating a cohesive and powerful experience.
Really intense and perfectly crafted. The model for the last ... item ... is extremely well made and fittingly unsettling. PS1 style grpahics are making a comeback, too, and this illustrates well how they can be used to great effect. I also liked the voice distorting, and just the escalation overall.
Cursed and straight to the point!
Good job on raising awareness about what we are buying and that most of us are stuck on supermarket goods whose origins we cannot trace back to.
Immersive, fun, and nails the theme of the jam. Good job!
Very creepy, great sound effects, and really dig the labels! I do wish the two paths diverged a bit more, but definitely worth the play through!
Same, I wish they diverged more, but overall a good game especially for a jam submission!
I bought it though.
. . .
super well rounded game, nice submission, very immersive
horrifying! really well done! not enjoyable but i loved it haha
I really liked the escalation XD
PSX graphics, in some specific cases (like this one), should come back from time to time. I really love the progressive dark vibes and the ironic comments left on each product. Please more!
This is short yet very shocking. Or at least I made me stop dead on the tracks when I reached the ending.
Regarding art, sound, gameplay, writing and everything else, I think it's great. Congratulations!
Something I'm not too sure about is, even if you do your due diligence, check all the labels and don't buy anything, you're still forced to participate in the killing. Do you believe there is no way around it? Like, sure, there's no ethical consumption under capitalism. But I would hope for an alternative :(
Thank you so much for this! I know I'm gonna be thinking about this in the future.
it's a short experience but I enjoyed the concept. Also the art and the feeling is on point for this retro 3D
