The game looks great and polished. (First time I've seen a loading screen in a jam game!) But I have no idea what I'm supposed to do! It seemed to me like I was some kind of disaster survivor trying to find a way out. I came to a couple of dead ends though. A bit more guidance to the player would probably go a long way. Because what is there is cool. I'd like to see more of it.

The game has some great atmosphere with the sounds and graphics, awesome job! Unfortunately the gameplay felt a bit too slow and I didn't know what to do, I think a quick tutorial in some form of objective at the start of the game could help with this.
Really cool to read the detailed devlog and how you went about the process of making the game.

That was a "strange" experience 😊.
The effects really let you feel lost. Nice glitch VFX and the cracking robot sound was cool too.
But it did not know what to do 🙄... I walked very slowly to all different kind of locations and pressed E but I did not see anything happen. Maybe you can give me a hint to play it to play it beyond where I have come now...
Nevertheless the concept is promising.. being lost as a robot with a virus
Devlog:
I did find your extensive devlog admirable. Gave a good insight into the development of the game and the thought processes. 👍
Glad that you like it and yeah to make sure many players can enjoy it and complete it, cause something that lost idea without knowing what to do is stressfull and some player dont like it, so i added another devlog with some coments from me that must change or thing i see that must reorganice, and a little tutorial guide of the game.
