I LOVE the artstyle! The story is nice and creepy. I think the movement is a bit tricky tho and sometimes you can go out of bounds if you stay near the edge and go over the arrow continously. Basically the sprites take one step forward and they eventually clip out but it's no big deal 'cause it's pretty obvious you aren't supposed to do that ahaha very cool, super good job!
Thanks a bunch! Glad you enjoyed!
The art was so good! I loved the contrast of the non serious, silly clowns and the dark murders they're investigating. The story was laid out really well, and I was interested in discovering it in each of the dimensions. Overall, you did amazing making this game!
Thanks a bunch! The silly/serious contrast wasn't super apparent to me while making this, but I'm glad it sticks out haha. Thanks for playing!
This is game is great and we love the artstyle :D
Thank you very much! Yours was fantastic! :)
very cool art
Thanks very much!
Loved the unique art style. And the combo of silly childish meta humor clowns and the grizzly story being told of the 3 victim characters is a great contrast. Solid well polished entry.
Encountered slight bug with the characters seeming to miss the exit hitbox in a few areas causing me to have to walk back onto screen, or skip a screen if I walked too far
Thanks so much for the kind words! I intend to fix the bugs soon. Loved your entry as well!
