So delighted to see a physical entry! Great use of the theme and the short scene descriptions really helped me get in the stealth mindset (Honestly I love any game with a vision cone) When there were many guards moving around i needed to actually get chesspieces to move them around and keep track. Hope you had fun jamming ✨
Thank you for your comment and glad you found it interesting! It is definitely a physical game that is a love letter to one of my favorite video games genre.
Thanks for the jam, it definitely kicked off this old idea of mine! Cheers!
me and my bro don't have brain for playng this game the right way, but the concept is so inovative. 10/10
Don't be too harsh on yourself! The easiest way to play is to print/draw a map and to use a couple of tokens (buttons, coins, whatever) to play physically. Digital solutions may include tabletop simulators such as Owlbear Rodeo (free). It really boils down to try and repeat each level without having to remember anything too difficult.
But yeah, I am a huge fan of Portal series as well as old school stealth games. Maybe I cranked the difficulty to 11 at some points.
This looks like a really interesting concept!
Thanks! I really think about turning it into a more complete game some time later!
Really enjoyed this one! Although I don't have a printer so it took me almost as long to figure out how to play it digitally as it did to clear all the levels ha ha.
Not sure if this is intended or not but the rules as written don't forbid the player from shooting a guard with a crossbow through a wall. Thematically it doesn't make sense to me that the crossbow bolt can go through walls. But you did specify that the distraction stone can't be thrown through a wall, which signals to me that if the crossbow wasn't meant to work this way then you would have clarified it in the rules.
Thanks a lot l for your kind words! TTRPG folks may have dry-erase grids to play on but it definitely requires a bit of work to play otherwise. I have to admit that I had to find a digital way to play while writing the game since I was on a work trip then.
Nice catch! Yes, the crossbow shot cannot be executed through a solid wall so I'll have to add it to the post-jam version of the game. Cheers!
Ok this looks AMAZING!
Thanks a lot!
Well, it's true. Thanks for replying =)
