I  don't even know what to say. Fantastic work. Really really impressive.

Very funny.

I really like the meta aspect of the game and I had a lot of fun going through the cutscene at the beginning. I also really appreciate the alt-F4 feature and the whole game had a genuinely interesting atmosphere. Nice work!

Developer

thanks, the alt-f4 feature bugged a bit but I think it still worked effectively :) thank you for playing

Fun twist and clever mechanics like the username and system file dumps, I enjoyed it!

Developer

Thank you very much :)

It ran too laggily on Linux for me to give a numerical rating, but I have to say that I loved the visuals, mood and options as-is. I'm sure there was more to it than the first few minutes, so I wish I could run it :)

Developer

:( I'm sorry you couldn't. I'll have to see if I can figure out what was causing the lag.

The visuals are really impressing and it creates a good mood for your purpose, moreover it reminds me of games like portal and undertale. I didn't read any review before playing, so your game knowing my name was a total shock that built the atmosphere and I loved when the AI took control of my screen. Sometimes the camera was a bit weird, but it wasn't something to bother my experience. Enemies are cuter when they are above their buddies.

Developer

lol yeah that was a spawn glitch that I forgot to fix. The murder robots just kept wanting to show you how well they stood on each other's shoulders.

I enjoyed the twist to this!  :)

Developer

:D thank you

One word. EPIC (I am speechless)

Developer

No I used unity...


:) Thanks a lot I love hearing that people enjoyed it.

The futuristic aesthetic was done really well with the bright lights, and the dialogue kept me playing to find out what happened next, really nice idea and for the most part solid execution. I found the same stuff as others below so I will stick to the positives, really nice  concept and a good play. nice job :)

Developer

Awesome, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I can't wait to see how I can expand on the ideas in future jams.

"Hello Allie" Uh-oh.

That was great! The file crawler didn't have the intended spook effect I think you were going for though, it mostly just listed the pile of files I'd been messing with to make my own jam game, lol. You had me genuinely curious what it would say next so I kept going. The payoff for sticking with it was retroactively completely predictable, but also super novel and fun to see at the time.

Let's see, criticism. There's not much, this was a pretty complete experience. Having tooltips when mousing over items in your inventory, or when selecting the item, or when looking at the item in the world would be good. I thought the health stims were keys at first.

There's a fun glitch where you can double-hit with the wrench if you click fast enough. That made the loops a lot quicker, and honestly I don't know that I'd fix it - it's a nice little moment of "haha I'm outsmarting the game" that doesn't really impact balance in any majorly meaningful way.

The wrench would disappear from my screen after interacting with doors at times. Clicking to attack would bring it back. Not sure if intentional.

Of course I have to compliment you on the flying-away effect with the tiles. You've probably gotten a lot of them and you deserve them all.

Thanks for the good time!

Thanks for the feedback, I'll have to add the wrench bug to the list of ones I need to look for in the future but I did know about the double click bug. there are ways around that but time is no one's friend.
