Oh no it said "after voting period" but I just finished playing!
Crap...
Well I really enjoyed it and the visuals were very cool! I did find 1 bug however:
I started messing with the pad lock (going in & out of it and changing the numbers) and at some point I seem to have become half the intended height (my camera height was about at waist height). It wouldn't let me use the stairs after that!
Still it didn't take away from how cool the experience was just wanted to let you know about it. Also really liked that you put some scenery outside the bar too so it wasn't just empty, really set the atmosphere!
Really nice visuals and a great concept, I think the controls should be stated in the game somewhere it took a while to figure out that I could open my inventory. I like how the game gets less grainy when you are in the future.
Oooo the vibes in this was really cool and great job on the graphics!
Really nice art style and i loved the clock transition! is super cool
Verrry fun art style and concept, good job!!
Wow, what a cool game, visuals and music create a perfect symbiosis <3 And I also love the fact that you created a trailer for this, haha! Keep it up, great job! <3
This is a really cool idea and I really liked the art style you've chosen. I hit a bug after interacting with the lock, I was stuck in a crouched position and couldn't really do anything without doing a hard reset (I played the bug fix version).
I would definitely like to check this out again after the Jam if you carry on with it
A pretty nice game :) The 3D modelling is great and I like the kind of "old" style added to the art to make it feel more rustic. Well done overall :)
The premise and concept are super cool. And for the most part the execution is really well done. Visually the style choice and transitions were great choices and the story is interesting. I can see this expanding well into your expected future updates! You're well aware of the bugs with items and camera by now so on you go to making a more complete game! Really nice work guys :)
Very cool! I loved the visual changes to the bar as I moved through the story, and I'm blown away at how good it looks in the short amount of time you've had. I'm so sad it's a short experience, it 100% left me wanting more. Even the camera issue after opening the padlock didn't detract from the experience. Great game!
What a neat concept! The Visuals and the Music really tie in the atmosphere and I really got engaged the entire time! Nice Entry!
What an amazing visual, I absolutely loved it!! The atmosphere is excellent, I was really entertained while playing :D
The only bug I noticed is that when you interact with the lock, the character keeps walking crouched afterward. Great game!
oh this was fun!!! i liked this a lot. i also love that i know exactly what prefab you guys used, you made it look great!!

This was such a fun experience! we absolutely loved the visuals and atmosphere! The mystery hooked us right from the start, and the retro-inspired look combined with the soft lighting gave it a really immersive tone. The dialogue styling and font choices were also a great touch, they added personality and charm to each interaction.
We really enjoyed the story setup too; it’s short but feels like a glimpse into a much bigger world, and we’d love to see it expanded one day! The tone and pacing make it super engaging, and it easily stands out as one of the more cinematic entries we’ve seen.
That said, there were a few bugs that stood out during our playthroughs:
Camera issues: In a few spots (like the padlock section or upstairs area), the camera would suddenly flip or break free from its position, making it hard to control.
Character clipping: Sometimes the character would sink lower or collide with invisible walls, especially when interacting with objects like locks or doors.
Progress blockers: In a few cases, certain objects stopped responding (like the watch or doors), forcing a restart.
Despite those rough edges, this has tons of potential, the storytelling, atmosphere, and presentation are all top-notch. With a few stability fixes and polish passes, this could easily become a standout mystery experience. Fantastic work overall!
Good, fun game with nice visuals <3 Check my reply to you for a more detailed description.
That was so fun!! I love it!
This is really cool and like the visuals and story. i've also encountered a big where you interact with the lock and your character moves weird and are lower. Overall good game :]
This is soo good hello?? It’s so darn pretty and the execution is lovely. The asesthetics are amazing genuinely good job! I did unfortuanately encounter a bug with the padlock at the end, my character was all janky; I assume the camera rotation got released from the padlock position but the offset wasn’t reversed. Never the less, it was a great game.
The game looked great. Shame it was so short and i really hope they wil continue developing on it so we get more mysteries.
I loved this game! Incredible storytelling, the visuals were stunning, and I loved the music too! I managed to complete the game, but encountered a bug through the door with the padlock where the camera went completely crazy hahaha. Still very enjoyable and one of the more polished works I have seen in this jam! Will likely be going on my list of favorites!
