Great game! Really like the psuedo ARG aspect of it, Never player one shot, but if this was inspired it, then I have to definitely try it!

Overall amazing idea and execution, 10/10 for wowie.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Also OneShot is amazing, and I 100% recommend it. Word of warning if you intend on playing it though. DO NOT LOOK UP ANY GAMEPLAY! It will ruin it for you! It's only $10 so if you have the money its 100% worth it!

The music go well with the game ! Nice job !

Loved Oneshot, and this is basically mini-oneshot, very cool. Great elevator music, fun puzzles, and interesting story. 5/5 WOWIE!

Thank you so much!

Bro this game is insane, actually had to look through game files to progress the game, and you even made another 'minigame' for the last code, very creative stuff.

Developer

Thank you!

An underrated gem! Such a fantastic game, 5 for fun creativity and visuals.

Really creative puzzles, my favorite game in the jam so far!

Developer

Thank you!

Really cool idea for a game which breaks the fourth wall over and over again !(don't want to spoil it so I wont say more)
The music and visuals are awesome and adding to the ambience.
Had a blast with this!

Developer

Thanks!

I have to say I absolutely love how you have to look around in the game's files to progress. It makes you feel super smart to figure it out. My only complaint is that you don't go deep enough. I think it would've been really cool to have a whole rabbit trail you can go down to investigate the AI so you can make your decision. But I also totally understand not being able to do all that with the time constraints. 5/5 stars!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Yeah, I really wanted to make some more in-depth puzzles but ran out of time! I'm glad you still enjoyed it though!

Submitted

Nicely packed, short, and polished game about escaping. Interesting concept for use of the system files. All 5 stars

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

I love this. The details in the folders are very nice too, like the prisoner txt files. I wonder if it's even possible, but it would have been cool if the .exe self-deleted when you choose the rucket ending. I wish the game was longer too!! Very nice

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Deleting the exe is actually exactly what I wanted to do but I couldn't figure out how

Submitted

Really cool game but I find only one ending and I don't find the Walkthrough video.

Developer

Thank you! Yeah I actually FORGOT TO PUT THE WALKTHROUGH IN! Here it is though lol

Submitted

Really nice game, I love that you need to search through the game files in order to complete the game. It has some really cool glitchy effects as well. Very nice job.

Developer

Thank you!
