Super jeu Antoine! J'adore la chanson du début et l'ambiance sonore en général. De plus je trouve que c'est original et agréable à jouer.
First of all, best game page among all submissions. The explanations there help a lot. Plus, procedural generated content is one of my interests so good job. Still, the installation process takes a while but if you use processing I suppose embedded HTML is not a choice in the first place. In-game tutorials would be nice though you may need extra work if you were to design a section for that. Also, it does take a few trials to confirm that there is indeed a destination within the maze. The game-over scene may crash the game or you may intend that way. The darkness and instruction mechanics is nice but it's maybe too dark and the whispers are sometimes inaudible, subtitles would be nice. I don't know if granola bars will be of any use because, as you mentioned, the chance of finding the monsters is slim. Meanwhile, the battery is so rare in my case, maybe it's just my luck. Overall, once you adapted to the game mechanics, it's good.
Thanks for all the feedback! I would have indeed made an in-game tutorial if I had enough time, too much was wasted on changing languages and game idea. Did the app work fine? Poeple seem to have trouble running it. For the whispers I really felt they were pretty loud but subtitles are always good. Happy to see you enjoyed it :D
Hi,
Can this game be executed on Mac?
I don't think so but there is a way to export if for Mac but I didn't upload it... If you want though, you can download Processing, run the ".pde" file in the "source" folder of the windows download, press "Keep", then take the "data" folder and move it in the "source" folder, and finally, you can press the Run button in the top-left corner of the Processing sketch you opened earlier (.pde is the file format for Processing sketches). Sorry for not having exported it to Mac, I will export for other OS next time I make a submission for a jam.
Hi, I finally run your game on Processing!
It is fun, especially, your way of making horrific atmosphere is so good.
Thanks for your advice for execute your game!
The idea of the game based on the Purcell tune is of great creativity and perfectly fits the given theme of the jam. Well done !
I cant play it somehow @@ it seems like sth is not loading :(
Sorry I forgot to put clear instuctions on the page, now this should be better. Also what is STH?
hmmm I did everything correctly, but the whole screen is just black and everything lags :_) Everyone seems fine so i guess its my computer :)
also "sth" is something :)
Well sorry, it works great on my computer, it's a bit glitchy on my dad's but idk why it's not working on yours. You can try to do just as I explained to MasahiKon in another comment, and open the code in Processing's editor, it should work in there. I might try using p5 or anything else than processing because exporting applications is just such a problem... Sorry for all the problems with running the game :(
