How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
The player is the clip. The Theme, "time is money", is related to the game's storytelling. So, too much explanation becomes a spoiler.

I'll preface this comment with the admission that I didn't get past the first level. The clipping mechanic just never clicked for me. The atmosphere in terms of audio is there, but the visuals don't really support it, and the small typos really hurt when the text is so dominant (which is very cool btw)
The controls were also very sluggish to the point of frustration. The only way I made progress was with the unlimited jump is fun but that makes the game very breakable considering the very first hallway isn't closed off.
I see a lot of potential here, it's just sadly obscured by a few small gameplay oversights that are too big to ignore

Really appreciate the feedback. Btw can you tell me what the typos are? cuz I'm Chinese and I'm not sure which words might be incorrect.
damn I found one, it->Lt
Ah sure! Normally I wouldn't point them out this much but when they take such an important role, I want to make sure you know :)
The biggest one is "ALIGH" which I think is meant to be "ALIGN"? And not incorrect per so, just unconventional, WASD is usually writted in that order, not WSAD.
But like I said, other than that, I really enjoyed the visual text presentation!!
Thx! Also, I still wanna know how the clipping mechanic troubles you so I can make improvements? It supposes be you approach the paper and hold the left/right mouse button.
Yea, so holding down a button for this long is just straining, I'd recommend using a toggle. And then it just didn't seem to work smoothly, I think I was supposed to clip multiple pages together but that never seemed to work, as in, I never got multiple pages clipped together. Especially the "hold left click" portion didn't make sense to me
Right, my game lacks some more instructions for sure and I really appreciate your feedback. I can tell you some of the codings for clipping multiple if you still wanna try. There is a sphere detecting area surrounding the paper clip. So, if the hitbox of the paper is colliding with it, holding the left click will create a joint between the paper and the paperclip. The same for multiple papers. Basically, you might wanna let all the papers you want to clip have part of the area intersect with the detect sphere area, and then hold the left click should work to clip them all.
Oh btw just wanna mention that the paper in the paper tray is all fake except the one at the top, so a little bit of jump might be needed.
