I had more fun than I thought I would finding the different endings, and even had to use the guide to figure out the secret ending. I tried using the axe to smash the window, but it's made out of some axe-proof glass or something. Well done on the fireplace loop and getting the graphics to work in general.

Very fun! I liked the multiple endings, especially the code one. :) The only problem I noticed was that the cursor would stay on the hand after hovering over an interactable object, making it hard to search.

I noticed that too. I think it is a glitch within the software. I believe it is supposed to become a hand over items added as buttons, but stay an arrow over the background or items added as clips. Most of the selectable items got added as clips in the end. In the future, I might stick with adding items as clips. Thank you for the feedback.

Found the game to be fun :) The setting is established well. Music is good. The hints upon picking up some of the objects made it a bit too easy I think. Might be more fun to just have them hang around in the inventory, and let the player use them on different objects and see what happens. Also it might be better to show objects in the inventory. (That can be fixed I guess). The third method is fun! (You’ve setup the player to ignore this. Well done!) For the time frame of the jam, this is a good beginning, and the concept is promising. I can see this being expanded into a more full-fledged game. Good job overall on coherent execution!

Thank you for catching the inventory issue. Replayed the game and realized that while the key was showing in the inventory, the match never did and it definitely was supposed to and did at one point. I must have accidently removed that part. I can't believe I did not notice that in my final play through. Working on getting that fixed. Again, thank you :)

That “realistic ending” was real sneaky! I really enjoyed the ambience of the game

Good job putting a submission together.  Reminds me of some old adventure games from when I was a kid.  Definitely keep going - making the puzzles more involved would go a long way.

One thing I noticed though - I couldn't find your credits / attribution for the assets you used.

I had a button to view credits right below start, though maybe I should add them to the description too like other jammers have. Thank you for noticing. 

Glad you enjoyed the game. I had made another game before this that had more puzzles. I hope to upload it once I get the safe working properly.
