There's potential here. There's a lot of eeriness to wandering around a room full of weirdly-spaced lockers, while being watched by a guy in a lab coat. However, I wasn't able to find the alien at the end, even after following the walkthrough. Maybe I did something wrong, I'm not sure.

Also, I experienced some graphical errors on the first level where everything except the lockers would blink out of existence. Again, not sure if that's a programming error, or just a hiccup on my end. At the end of the day, there's some room for improvement, but it's not bad for a five-minute game!

Very surreal and cool. Well done.

Wow!

I really love experimental games like this.

Clearly it would require more work and polish to utilize the mechanics further, but I like what you’ve gone after here.

It’s a cool idea, and there’s something I like about the rusty and creepy retro-3D vibes.

Keep making games! I’ll be checking out your other stuff too.

PS. It’s nice that you provided the read_if_stuck.txt

I used it on the second room because I only found the first part of the code.

Good. Interesting mechanics, but a little bit crazy. I like it :D Also like the retro-3d visuals.

This is by far my favorite of the jam, the realization that I could flip things inside out may be one of the most pleasant surprises I've ever experienced in a video game, the combination of the trippy visuals and retro aesthetic I found also to be rather pleasing, it may not be the most polished game, or the longest, but I really enjoyed it, my only critique would be to maybe make the inside out controls something I can hit while still moving and looking around, like Q and E or something of the sort, as it was a little bothersome reaching my hand down to the arrows for what was the main mechanic. Overall I really loved this.

Developer

Wow thanks. Yeah you are right, using the arrow key wasn't the best
