Very cool! I knew we were kind of unreliable as a narrator as soon as I saw the blood on our gloves >:o The only thing that was bothering me was the player controls, maybe WASD would've been better? Oh and in the english version the text on the checklist is still in german, maybe it would've been better to translate it as well :)
HAHAHA Yes she may be totally crazy ;)
yes, we will try to implement different controls or even let the player set the keyboards themselves and make it more polished in the gameplay! Sorry for the language glitch! Thank you for playing!
Sadly the game resolution was not compadible with my pc so I couldn't play but it looks really nice!
Oh no, we are sorry...
I also had issues playing it on my laptop, because it was too large for my screen. But i reduced the Zoom to 80% in the settings and it worked out totally fine. But we will work on that, so that it will be compatible with mosts browsers and screentypes :)
Very charming and mysterious, I like the art and the story. Since there was this note in the kitchen I'm kind of curious, which nordic story is it referencing?
Hi there! thank you for your feedback.
The note (aka holding space for a book, which we unfortunatly could not insert in time) is refering to the nordic legend of "Irrlichter" (will-'o-the-wisp) which are small lights often appearing at night close to lakes or marshlands/swamps and leading people into them. Often people died while following the Irrlichter because they ran into the swamps o.e. and were stuck or started drowning.
We did this reference because of the lake nearby the house as well as to introduce Herbert, whose artstyle is based on an Irrlicht.
INSANE level of polish on this! This feels like a very rounded and complete experience! Only thing that could use some work is the player controller and the interactions were sometimes a bit tricky to get but overall this is GREAT :)
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I'm very glad you liked the experience!
Yes, totally the hitboxes are too tiny right now and the interactive button is having problems too unfortunetly.
Very awesome game! I really like the cute art and music!
I had the error on start like others (on Firefox) but works in Chrome if that helps.
And sometimes the game switches translations. If you play in english and press the dresser in the first room. If you click with the mouse a little to the right of the bottom knob it is english, at the far left it is german as an example.
But all in all a very good and polished game already I am impressed!
Thank you so much! This means a lot to us.
Yeah the browser thing is kinda irritating but can be solved quite easily by switching the browser. Thanks for your effort!
Thanks for the advice, I didn't know the language is glitching. Will definetly work on that!
THANK YOU!
this is SO nuts!!!! WTF??!! How finished you want your game?? It has a compelling story, is finished from beginning to end and just wonderful to play, really satisfying! LOVED IT! (understood the end at my second playthrough, cause i clicked on new game accidentally XD)
Thanks a lot!!! We put quite a lot of effort into the story and brainstorming before programming or artwork and we're also really content with the story overall. Just thought about the theme "Kaputt" in a mental/psychic way, which is exactly whats happening to our main character, she just becomes more and more broken and also made her husband "kaputt".
We were unsure, if everyone would understand the ending, but it seems like a lot of you guys did ^^
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Yes, I ghosted real life too hard to make it finish in time. I had no life in 48 hours :D but thankfully I had my wonderful team member got my back with Co-Illustration and support!
Thank you that you took the effort to play it even a second time and I'm super glad you got the ending! SInce we didnt really had time to make a credit scene or any direct speech to that.
Beautiful art and story. Even though horror is not my fav genre but its a great game! :)
Thank you! We wanted to add more detail, but unfortunaly the time was not enough to complete everything. But we want to upload the game on Steam, after the Gamejam and when we polished everything, so it will we even better ^^
Thank you for your effort even thou you don't like horror! Thank you so much!
Einfach unheimlich cool gemacht!!!! Das Spiel hat einfach so viel Tiefgang und man verliert sich total in der Story. Die Räume sind durchdacht und die Items ergeben Sinn so länger man spielt. Wünsche den Entwicklerinnen, dass sie gewinnen <3 Bin jetzt schon ein großer Fan.
Simply incredibly cool!!!! The game just has so much depth, and you get totally lost in the story. The rooms are well-thought-out, and the items make sense the longer you play. Wish the developers good luck<3 I'm already a big fan.
Danke dir ^^
Wir hätten gerne noch mehr reingepackt, sowohl an Detail als auch an Storytelling, aber dafür war die Zeit einfach zu knapp. Aber es wird hoffentlich als Shortgame auf Steam irgendwann online kommen und da werden wir uns nochmal in der Story und der Details vorher austoben und noch ein paar mehr Insights geben ^^
This so good! I felt really immersed in the story. What a unique use of the theme! And the Artstyle. I really like it :>
Thanks a lot! Tiny spend almost an entire day just for backgrounds and character-design, whereas i made the items and Herbert (Ghost). We haven't work together before the gamejam, but our artstyles actually worked out quite well together.
Thank you so so much!!! Really appreciate it!
The sound design alone gave me goosebumps! Incredible work!
Thank you! We actually composed two sounds ourselves, the one right in the beginning (Menu) and the soundtrack inside the house and in the beginning of the forrest. Tiny decided to add some whispers for extra horrifiying feelings ^^
I love the artstyle!! Good job!
Thank you !!
No problem, can I ask you to play my game please as well!! 🙏
I already played your game! And thank you so much!
I have the same error as Mattis Kugelstadt or Error Failed to initialize graphics. If you have some options to fix it I'm happy to give it a try.
Sorry to hear that!
Which Browers are you using? If it is a browser problem, maybe try Microsoft Edge? If it is just the error of using F4 for fullscreen, you can skip that and continue the game on regular screen.
Otherwise try refreshing the browser (which you probably already did ^^), but aside from that i'm currently not able to help you.
I am very sorry!
Sorry to hear that, try to load it with a different browser
Crazy, super cool interpretation and result!
Thank you! :)
Loved the vibes :) Artwork is so good, especially the main character and drawing on the door.
Thank you! Took us sometime to figure out what kind of style we wanted to go for, but in the end we decided to stay true to Tiny's form of art, which include both cute and scary features, making the game progressivly more horrific ^^
Where can I get more?
Tiny is currently working on her first big project, also a game from the horror-genre. You can allready wishlist it on Steam, just search for "The Doll Museum" by Tiny. There's no saved release-date yet, but eventually it will be done this year :D
I know a horror RPG Maker game when i see one! Has the same vibe like the old rpg maker horror games :D loved it
Thank you a lot! That was kind of a vibe we were going for. Our focus was creating an atmosphere which is slightly unsettling, but not quite horrific until the end. And it worked out totally fine. Tiny started working with RPG-Maker last year and did an awesome job this gamejam!
We gonna check out your game too, it looks very nice!
Nice story-driven game, and I like the art style! Good job! :-)
Thank you so much!🩷 I definetly need a break now, I ghosted real life too hard for this game🤣 will check out your game too!
Yeah, I can believe that! 🤣
Cool, thanks! :-)
Ambitious und sehr polished! Das erste andere game was ich hier mit Deutsch und Englisch sehe. Auch generell gute und klare Art-Direction :)
Unser Game ist jetzt übrigens auch richtig am Start, also wenn du "Undertable" nochmal eine Chance geben willst, du weißt wo du uns findest.
Vielen Dank für die lieben Worte!
Ja ich war mir sehr unsicher bezüglich der Sprachauswajl, weil es ja eine deutsche Jam ist aber auch wollte, dass die internationalen Game Jammer das Spiel auch spielen können, ^^
Oh nice, Dann check ich euer Spiel ab!
Error
TypeError: Fullscreen request denied
sadly i can't open the game :(
You should be able to play without fullscreen, it is just a recommendation by the artist :)
PLease Use a different browser, than it should work out!
FINALLY <3
