I really like the sound of this game, but I'm on a apple device. I don't have windows. I'm a little new to itch.io, so is there any chance that I can download this game on a apple device?
I had to relaunch a couple times before it ever gave me sound, but otherwise it worked pretty well. I really like the idea, hope you're still working on it! I'd like to suggest if you are still working on it that you refine the item inspection a little bit:
*consider changing the text from 'pick up' to 'inspect', to distinguish from where you use 'pick up' to mean add to inventory
*since we can't walk or look while inspecting objects, consider making the mouse rotate the object by default rather than requiring the player to hold shift. Seeing the object move when you wiggle the mouse will make it much more clear that we are in 'inspect mode' and that we should not expect to be able to move or look around until we exit this state
*since objects are inspected a fixed distance away, and we must stand near them, and objects are usually on something, consider setting the object being inspected to arbitrarily draw in front of everything. As is, it's too easy to visually lose the thing you're inspecting inside the table it was on, meaning you need to close inspection, reposition, and try again
Really enjoyed this game! Such a cool concept and cannot wait for the final game whenever it is ready! Keep up the good work with it, you've got something real good here! :)
Excellent Excellent Excellent Excellent Excellent!!!! 5 Star game. IEnjoyed your game VERY much. I have played many many many, etc. many escape games. Yours is very unique and though a short game play, enjoyed it more than any others I have played. I hope you create more just like this one.
Did a video of the game... I got stuck by the toilet in the first playthrough, if you want a bug report.. Really enjoyed it so far, looking forward to the full game.
This game looks interesting and from the reviews and gameplay, it made me interested. However I can't seems to be able to download the game. It keeps failing even with my fast internet. Could there be a problem with the server?? I really want to try and play this game~
Hi! I tested downloading the game on different machines and it works for me. It could be a problem with the server. If the problem still persists, PM me and I'll send you a link to download the game. :)
I tried it again today and it still didn't work. :( It could probably the server, yes. I tried to read the forums here on similar problem, but so far no solid solutions. And I don't know how to PM here, but here's my IG. Just send me a DM there and I'll send you my email.
Thank you so much for this. And sorry for the trouble.
I don't have the IG app anymore(a few weeks of social media cleanse to boost my productivity). Here's a wetransfer link with the game : Alternate download (it will expire in 1 or 2 weeks).
Fantastic demo so far, the amount of work you've put into every little detail is insane and it really shows with the amount of things you can pick up and the stories you can receive about our protagonist if you really look. Great demo, I would love to play the whole thing!
I really love the idea and would love to see the full game. The screen caps are gorgeous and even this little demo was nice. Thank you for taking your time to create this!
Oh, this is so good! This is the perfect demo, it sets the scene, has you puzzling around figuring things out to show what to expect and leaves you wanting a whole lot more!
I did bump into the audio issue as well (wish I'd checked some of the comments below before bumbling around thinking there was no sound for the first quarter of an hour I was playing haha), but once I got it up and going it added even more atmosphere, which I suppose is the point is a good soundtrack!
Anywho, the game flows really nicely, it's painted a very interesting story and I cannot wait to see more from you =) keep up the awesome work!
Thanks for playing, Spoonage! I will surely go more into the "is this real?" aspect of the game in the final release.I will also make it more dramatic in the first scene too when looking through the camera.
Fantastic demo. Hope the rest is just as good and already the story is interesting. Not sure the camera to suitcase bit fitted in to what was a normal life game as it seemed to me but maybe there was a reason for it. Will deffo play the rest when released. So far... So good... :)
Hi, Kevx! Thanks for playing the game! It's not really a normal-life game as the world in which David is in is not truly real. The camera is able to see things which are behind the simulation and are hidden from David's view.It will be explained better in the future with a better introduction to this mechanic.
It was great! Made me very curious for the story. The puzzles were really good. The intro felt a bit out of place, though? The surprise camera mechanic at the end made it really interesting, but I was confused about how it was functioning within the context of the game world.
Great work though, I'll be following you! Cheers. 🍻
Really enjoyed the game! The puzzles were really well done and really made you think at times. The mechanics of things being different with the camera was so seemless and I really enjoye that. Like a lot of people I did have the audio issue, but restarting the game didn't help even after 3 times, but I got it to work by just moving the audio slider. I made a video, I hope you enjoy!
Thank you for playing, Cyberwolf! I really enjoyed the video! I plan on having the camera mechanic a little bit better explained in the future and also make the "hidden" objects easier to see.
Aside from a few little spelling errors, there's a lot to like about this game. There's a load of things to examine, fairly inventive puzzles, while the camera adds an interesting dynamic too. Eager to play more.
Thank you for playing, CjuGames! I'm working hard on the game and all these videos are a great source of feedback. I'm aware of the spelling errors and I plan on proofreading the texts multiple times before releasing the final version.

This is one of the best games, I have played, in quite sometime and it's not even finished! I am so looking forward to the final game.
Restarting the game, did work for me, when my sound wasn't working.

The small pop-up texts appearing through the video were something unique.I enjoyed those, also great play!
