The presentation was very cool but unfortunately this felt very clunky and unforgiving to play. I couldn't get too far and it seemed after I got the green key that I could no longer enter the room to use it.

I don't know why, but I was getting resident evil vibes.
Though the movement was a little jank, I hope you continue to work and improve on this.
The art style is lovely.
The camera was creative and the art was nice but the movement was a little jank.
Fixed camera and the aesthethics gave me nostalgia for those old hidden object games.
Ghosts are a bit hard to avoid in the rooms.
Nice visuals using AI. Still confusing to navigate through the rooms avoiding the ghosts but it is a cool reminder of 2D fixed camera ol’ style games.
I like the art style of the game. An interesting using of AI for creating graphics!
The design of the ghosts is really creepy (in a good way).
That's just sometimes it's not clear which doors I can go through and some items are not visible due to the vignette effect.
I really liked it
The visuals and narration are working well! good job for making the AI generate something so coherent and fitting the mood of the game :)
It wasn't always clear where to exit a room, the ghosts were hard to dodge and I think it was lacking a bit of player intentionality (what do I do? Where should I go? Okay, I've found a key, but I have no idea where to use it. etc...).
But overall, the experience was pleasant! Good job :D
Love the visuals and the conecpt. I got lost many many times. Amazing Art.
Unique visuals and movement. The dusty particles added great atmosphere. The context was a bit shady for me. Anyway gg!
The art is quite nice and I like the concept of the game! I would just say that it can be a little hard to understand where to go and especially which doors can be entered, but overall nice experience!
A wonderful game! Although it is not always obvious where to go. Very cool art!
I love the art style of this, looks really cool. The ghosts were really scary. Had a hard time figuring out where to go though, sometimes it was hard to tell which doors I could go through. Other than that solid submission!
Pincushion distortion was a really good choice, gives a lot to the atmosphere of the game.
Nice job.
