How have you integrated the theme in your game?
This game follows the user through a life of strict routine and a harsh academic lifestyle, imitating how society currently views school. As developers, we wanted to break out of that oppressive cage and how we interpret that metamorphosis of our new self. Have a go yourself and see how you fare among the mindsets of both the oppressed and the aggressor. ESCAPE THE CLASSROOM. ESCAPE THE RIGIDNESS. ESCAPE THIS LIFESTYLE.

I enjoyed making paper airplanes and breaking pencils :)
1. THEME FIT
We can only see the meaning of the theme slightly in the game, and it is not enough. Maybe it could have been a game where we sabotage the lesson by disturbing students during class, or a strategic game where we escape from school without getting caught by cameras and security.
2. GAMEPLAY
Interactions in the game are very limited, and the part where the game explains itself to the player is very weak. It is quite hard for the player to learn everything by experiencing it alone.
3. CREATIVITY
The idea is well thought out, but the game does not support this idea enough.
4. VISUAL PRESENTATION
Pixel art style is used.
Animations are quite good.
The interface is clear.
The art style fits the game well.
5. SOUND DESIGN
The music is disturbing. Maybe the volume could be lower, or a different music choice could be better.
6. TECHNICAL QUALITY / POLISH
There is no problem with optimization, but playing the game on a laptop with 1920x1080 resolution is difficult. When I move downward, I cannot see my character.
Also, for some reason, our character feels too large and cannot easily pass by other students’ hitboxes.
7. EMOTION - IMPACT
Because there is nothing much to do except walking around, I got very bored while playing the game. This definitely needs to be improved.
Thank you for this game experience.
i couldnt find my player or do anything
Does not run.
Hi there, I am so sorry for that, but it's all fixed now; I'm afraid it didn't load properly for the first time.
The game doesn't load. Do you need help exporting it correctly?

No problem, it happens, and it works now.
