How does the game fit the theme?
DING explores the idea that a place can become strange not through chaos, but through subtle change.
Each floor appears normal at first until something feels slightly wrong. A moved object. A different number. A detail that doesn’t match your memory. The player must observe carefully and decide whether the floor is normal or anomalous.

Interesting with lots of potential to turn into a full blown game where changes get more subtle as you progress.
I am glad, though, that it started out obvious because just realizing which elevator was which took paying attention (no, it wasn't hard) and going bad and reading the instructions on the page; I didn't enjoy the music, but it was entirely appropriate!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback!❤️
This game was interesting. I found a weird floor, so I went into the elevator I came out of, but then never saw anything different other than just the lighting. Wasn't really sure what was going on. I reloaded the page a few times so I could see the instructions. I think adding the instructions to the pause menu would have been great. Good job!
PS. I loved the main menu!
Very short but polished experience. I have to admit it took me an embarassing amount of time to figure out there were two doors and then which door I was supposed to go through, but once I figured it out it was all good.
It was a good instinct to make the anomalies quite obvious, afterall this is a game jam and you are fighting against a limited attention span per player, however I found myself wondering if the anomalies could be slightly subtler while still remaining readable.
Technically speaking the sounds were well balanced, the presentation stellar and I had no frame drops even in the browser - impressive.
Thank you so much for playing the game I’m really glad you enjoyed it💕
about difficulty of the anomalies is actually random depending on your luck so sometimes you might see the easier ones and other times some that are much harder to notice and there are a few anomalies that are hard to find
we really appreciate your feedback and we are happy to hear the performance and sounds worked well for you😊👍
Great game, the theming + crepisnest is amazing.
Some complaints I have are that you have to look at the description to find the rules of the game, and secondly, the left and right elevators mean nothing when you spawn parallel to them.
However, after understanding the rules was pretty fun gameplay yet too easy for me
Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! We’re really glad you enjoyed the theming and atmosphere.
That’s a fair point about the rules being in the description, we’ll definitely think about how to communicate them more clearly in-game.
And we understand what you mean about the elevators as well.
Glad you still had fun once the gameplay clicked, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts! :)
Hi
Cool consept, fun,
Good work team =)
Thank you.
Here is our game.
Thank you so much for playing the game we are really glad you enjoyed it😁🩷
I am always a fan of anomaly games :) great work!
Thank you sm👍
Cool concept, had me doubting myself there lol. Good job!
Haha perfect that means the anomalies did their job :D Thanks for playing!
Wow. Nice vibe. Certainly fits the theme. Although I suck at this kind of game.
P.S. It loads really really slowly for me :-(
Thanks a lot! We’re glad you liked the vibe
And sorry about the slow loading, the web version can take a few minutes. The downloadable version should run much faster if you’d like to try that.

Nice game! I really enjoyed the aesthetic.
Unlike some of the other comments, the web version loaded really fast for me.
Nice job!
Thank you we are so glad you liked the aesthetic and such a relief to hear it loaded quickly for you! 😅
Really appreciate you playing!💕
wow nice, game, i like the idea.
only 1 thing the game take like 5 minutes to open itself i dont know if is my pc or the game
Thank you so much we really glad you liked the idea! 🤍
about the loading time it’s most likely due to WebGL sometimes it takes a few minutes to fully load
This game reminds me a lot of exit 8. Although I'm not a huge fan of these spot the difference games the graphics and overall atmosphere are really good! I was kind of confused as to where the second elevator was before realizing you had to turn around, after that I was able to make some progress. Overall it sets a mood very well and made me a bit tense (in a good way)!
Thank you the game Exit 8 definitely inspired us so I’m happy you noticed that😁
we are sorry about the confusion with the second elevator but I’m glad you figured it out and made progress after that!💕
Game was so good that I started getting headache and suffocation!
Oh nooo 😭 That wasn’t the goal I promise
I’m really glad the atmosphere was intense enough to make you feel that immersed though and thank you so much for playing we will definitely keep comfort in mind for future updates👍
No it was great!!! I loved that sudden appearance of that creature absolute amazing jumpscare.
I was already feeling kinda dizzy and not well then I played your game and that just triggered headace and suffocation 💀
im really sorry u felt that way i hope you're feeling better now💕
Strange game indeed. Had to wait for a bit for the game to load in webgl. But i really love how you implemented all the weather effects and how everything change based on that. Very cooool
Thank you so much we really appreciate you waiting for it to load WebGL can be a bit slow sometimes and we are really happy you liked the weather effects and how the environment changes based on them glad you enjoyed it👍💕💕
Reminds me of those anomalies games like the Exit 8. The game really fits the theme and really love the gameplay. Overall, excellent game man.
That means a lot thank you!!
We were inspired by anomaly games like Exit 8 so I’m really happy you felt that
Appreciate you playing and leaving feedback!💕
Tried to launch it several times but it just getting stuck at around 90% during loading and never starts, so unfortunately I can’t play and rate it.
Thank you for trying to launch it! The web version may take a few minutes to fully load (as mentioned on the page). If you’d prefer a faster experience, you can download the game and it should run much smoother that way.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and we appreciate you trying to play it! :)
Cool! The Atmosphere fits the theme really well! I like the idea of “a place becoming strange through subtle changes”!
I’m not super into spot-the-difference games, but the difficulty actually fits for me, which not tiny stuff of different, but more subtle while still easy to notice (for me at least; not sure if others prefer harder). And the chair turning into toilet was funny haha. Great work!
Thanks a lot! We’re happy the subtle strangeness worked for you and that the difficulty felt fair. And we’re glad the chair surprise made you laugh. Really appreciate you playing! :)
Ive seen a few anomaly games and it always feels good to get to the end and be like Yes, my memory is still good!
We love that feeling too :D
There’s something so satisfying about making it to the end. Really glad you had fun!
Excellent game!
Thank you!!
nice game
Thank you!
