A wonderfully neat , yet short little game where you are a player trying to find your way back to reality.

 The game itself looks to be starting out quite nicely where you have to find 6 mementos then escape, this could be set up into a brilliant story where the protagonist has had a concussion to the head and is now fighting to regain the memories lost while traversing reality and dreamscapes to come out of a coma.
 Games like this remind me of  "the backrooms game" where you go through a procedural maze trying to keep yourself sane by glancing at your watch every 30 seconds , but glancing too much made things worse, In fact the atmospheric hum of the lights and the way the lights played around reminded me of this exact game.

 In future updates maybe there will be more sounds/light effects to distract the player from their direction to make them think " did i come from here?" which would further immerse them into the games core of being liminal, maybe there could be rooms that change when you go in them (for example doors that unlocked are changed so the player cant go back) and maybe pictures that warp and distort ... or if the aim is to keep it minimal maybe a few effects that affect the players vision to further immerse them in, maybe even have the lantern go out every now and then and you need to find ways to light it.
 As mentioned by the creator it is all very "bare bones at the moment " but everything seems pretty good so far, when future updates come out and the game is a little longer id be happy to make a video on it and review it again.

Apologies for the lengthy review but i hope it helps in some shape or from.



 

That’s some awesome feedback, thank you so much! Funny enough ‘The Backrooms’ was a huge inspiration for us while working on this project.

Your ideas are awesome, and definitely some things we’ve considered ourselves, so it’s good to hear other people would like to see these things too. We would love to implement similar features in the future!


Thanks again!
