  • I'm sorry dude, your game doesn't work. You didn't include the Data folder in your submission.

Did you include your Game Design Document in your downloadable files?
Yes

Tell us about your game!
Hellberg’s Piper Hell is supposed to be a horror walking simulator with pipe puzzles in between. The horror part didn't really make it into the prototype.

Controls:
Move: WASD
Pick up: E
Inventory: 123456789
Rotate: R
Place pipe: E

​Story: ​You wake up in a basement with water leaking, and it’s filling up the room. You need to connect the pipes from the source to the destination and block all leakage. While searching for pipes, mysterious things begin to happen, and you begin to suspect that you are perhaps stuck in a dream, or a simulation. Is someone keeping you locked in there? Will you find a way out?

Extra info: There is a tiny victory screen at the end if you manage to connect the pipes without any holes.

Spoiler: (If you want some tips: There is a secret hidden in plain sight. Hint: it's in the room with the pink lights. Second hint: it's a big secret.)

Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
Yes

Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes

Extra Notes
Important: I forgot to zip the data folder with the executable in the build that I submitted to the GameJam! So you can't run it. If you're interested to try the game anyway: here's a link to a zip file WITH the data folder, a working copy: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/nzfwcri2fv2qdnt92qec8/Hellbergs-Piper-Hell-build8withDataFolder.zip?rlkey=qgz20n73vkdonbu5kdzdc3tnh&dl=0

Warning: Place pipes thoughtfully. There is nothing stopping you from placing on an illegal square, ruining your chance of completing the game.
