How does your game fit the theme?
Blot Fugitive is built entirely around the idea of a time loop. Each time the player resets (either by dying or pressing the "Loop" button), a ghost of their past run remains — replaying their exact actions. These "ink ghosts" become essential tools for solving puzzles, activating switches, and overcoming challenges that would be impossible alone. The loop isn't just a story element — it's the core mechanic. You must plan ahead and cooperate with your past selves to escape the cycle. The more you loop, the more allies you leave behind.

What a fever dream! The artstyle reminds me of Brutal Orchestra, it rocks!

Although I have to say that game-wise is not that fun... having to understand how the game works while having the camera constantly spinning (and math problems, for some reason) made the game pretty frustrating.

I commend the grind of making unhinged games!

Horrific, really love all the details but was a bit unsure of what to do...spinning screen was immediately awful but somehow I got used to it? Good entry, very uncomfortable!

Nice game the rotation was a bit weird to be honest. But I liked that you can use yourself as a platform and triple jump!

I love the trippy and surreal atmosphere and the loop mechanic was very cool! The rotating camera was a bit much for me tough - it gave me a bad case of motion sickness after playing for a while

Fun game with a cool art style. Using recorded ghosts fits the theme nicely. I personally didn't find the rotating screen to be too distracting, but it was still maybe a tad unnecessary.

Both art and gameplay is cool. Took a while to get used to the rotation, but I like it. Maybe create a easier start, many new things to take in. Very good job!

Now this is something else. Borders on unplayable with the rotation of the screen but got used to it surprisingly fast

Very unique experience but also definitely very confusing too. I managed to figure out what the first button to the right does but couldn't figure out the others like the green to the left or the blue one underneath.

I thought this was really cool, Loved the art style and the background was really cool, was dark and weird but in a really good way. I liked  the spinning mechanic too and how you'd end up upside down with weird gravity. was gun.

Very surreal and memorable experience. It's unlike any game I've played before. It was a little disorienting because of the constant spinning, but I think that's the point. I like the jump mechanics. Overall, great work!

I get the idea of the game. But the constant looping of the camera makes me do not want to play it.

Very trippy and definitely unique! It really brings a certain type of atmosphere that I think is really cool.

This one scared me! I feel like the goal was to deliberately discombobulate, I could never quite get into a loop because unexpected things would happen, enemies would appear and at one point it started quizzing me on math! Well done.

Developer(+1)

Haha thanks

Trippy little game. I got two out the the 3 crystals but got stuck in the math one.
Tried giving the right  and the wrong but nothing happened, I probably missed on something. Overall great submission. Well done

Developer

Thanks, if you answer correctly, the door that opens isn’t the one next to you, but the one higher up on the platform. You have 16 seconds to reach it. Up there, you’ll find another button that opens the door with the final diamond.
