Really interesting idea for a horror game! Unfortunately, I quickly softlocked myself by going back to the paper after picking up the flashlight. There didn't seem to be a way to back out, and it just held me staring at the paper without being able to type anything.

I rebooted the game and spawned the door, the key and the flashlight,then this time raced out into the darkness... only to get stuck again. I wound up trapped in a 2-inch square of floor next to an unlit torch, unable to move in any direction. I swear I'm not trying to do this on purpose; I really want to see what this game has to offer. I gave it a high rating, I just don't think the game likes me xs
I do plan on working on this game (from fresh) once the game has finished and having around a 30+ minute long game, with a fully fledged storyso hopefully this won’t be the last time you play!
I do think I know the issue of being trapped and stuck now I think about it, I had an issue of people (further in the game) dropping down from the ladder after ascending it and soft locking themselves and as by the rules of the game jam I was able to make a small implement by adding a collider to stop people from being able to do so BUT what I think has happened is that the collider somehow gets triggered before the actual ladder event occurs leading people to become soft locked like yourself, I’ll have to look into it if I get time before the Jam finishes and add a final small update so you’re able to get the full experience; but even if you don’t I really do appreciate you taking your time by giving it multiple chances, and for proving your feedback! It’ll truly help me when it comes to the full development to make sure I test and trial every avenue of the game before publishing it🤍
