Looks good but kinda weird and buggy.

awesome graphics!

I definitely see potential here and am very intrigued by the screenshots, but unfortunately, I just don't think the onboarding went quite as intended in my case. For starters, is the game supposed to be in French, or did I somehow download the wrong version or run the wrong executable? Regardless, I know enough French to read the controls summary, but the controls themselves are very unintuitive and unconventional, perhaps based on a foreign or less common keyboard layout? As for the gameplay, I can kind of get that it's about connecting things to unlock doors, but it was very buggy and difficult. Important objects kept falling through the level into space for me, including the player character itself. There are certain physics interactions that are conventionally supposed to work in first-person games, such as being able to jump onto a box by pressing up against it and jumping with the directional key held, but in this game, you have to actually get a running start because trying that other method will just jump straight up and down. I was ultimately not able to get past the 2nd room with the blue key card because I just could not figure out how to fix the reader, and the electronic components just kept falling through the map.

Hello indeed sorry, I had put the fr version, but the problem is solved the version has been delivered with the qwerty keyboard keys

Due to the size of the game (1.6GiB) the only way to retrieve the .exe is through the dropbox link :

May I suggest you watch this video, to get around the 1Gb limit on itch.io, yes a bit late now.

It involves using a utility called butler, provided by itch from the command line. This video makes it pretty easy to follow.
